Two of the NBA's best players will be on display when Tyrese Maxey (28.8 points per game, sixth in league) and the Philadelphia 76ers (30-22) travel to face Deni Avdija (25.5, 13th) and the Portland Trail Blazers (25-28) on Monday, February 9, 2026 at 10 p.m. ET on KUNP and NBCS-PH. The 76ers won their last outing 109-103 against the Suns on Saturday. In their last outing on Saturday, the Trail Blazers claimed a 122-115 win over the Grizzlies.

Despite that, the sophomore leaps of Kyshawn George and Alex Sarr have given the team and their fanbase reason to believe they were headed in the right direction.
