Classy answer from Tyrese Maxey in the postgame interview when asked about his 50 burger:

Sixers beat the Pacers 137-126. The Pacers found better formulas late, but a slow start cost them, and the Sixers were better in the final minutes.
Haliburton had 25 and 17, but Maxey and Embiid combined for 87. They were excellent. Pacers are 6-4. Another one in Philly Tuesday. – 8:19 PM
