Allen Iverson goes wild for 76ers star Tyrese Maxey’s heroics

The Philadelphia 76ers needed a spark in Game 3 against the Boston Celtics, and Tyrese Maxey provided a lightning bolt. With the Wells Fargo Center on its feet, Maxey delivered a moment that bridged the gap between Philly’s storied past and its high-octane present.

Trailing 84-82 in the fourth quarter, Maxey stepped into a cold-blooded three-pointer that sent the home crowd into a frenzy. No one was more hyped than Allen Iverson. The 76ers legend, seated courtside, practically jumped out of his sneakers the moment the ball snapped the net.
