Here are the three biggest takeaways for the Philadelphia 76ers following an important win over the Miami Heat at home.

Maxey tied Allen Iverson’s Sixers record of 885 made three-pointers with a step-back jumper late in the first quarter. He soon passed Iverson’s mark and the Sixers recognized the achievement on the Jumbotron. Maxey received “MVP” chants from the home crowd … and wasted almost no time before swishing his fifth triple of a 20-point first quarter.

The Sixers’ outlook has darkened considerably over the past month.

Tyrese Maxey broke Allen Iverson's 76ers franchise record for 3-pointers, finishing with five 3s and 28 points in Philadelphia's 124-117 victory over the Miami Heat.
