Tyrese Maxey, star of the Philadelphia 76ers, will miss approximately two weeks due to a right hamstring injury, as sources informed ESPN on Thursday. The team confirmed the injury as a hamstring sprain and announced that Maxey will be reevaluated in one week to determine his progress.

Maxey suffered the injury during Wednesday's loss to the LA Clippers, a game in which he scored 12 points in 32 minutes.

With Wednesday's result, the Sixers hold a 1-6 record, sharing the league's worst record with the Milwaukee Bucks, a challenging situation for a team that expected a better start with its new star trio. In the last 25 years, only three teams have managed to make the playoffs after starting the season with a record of 1-6 or worse.

Joel Embiid is expected to make his debut on Tuesday, after recovering from a knee injury and serving a three-game suspension following an altercation with a reporter. The 76ers, who last season won 29 out of 36 games when Maxey and Embiid played together, hope for both to return soon to turn things around and enhance their performance this season.
