Tyrese Maxey News, Rumors, Updates - Philadelphia 76ers

Another strong outing Maxey amassed 32 points (12-25 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 40 minutes during Wednesday's 105-95 loss to the Pistons.

Impact With Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee) both out, Maxey has taken over as the 76ers' top option on offense. Maxey has used that increased workload to score at least 30 points in back-to-back games. The 24-year-old guard is averaging 31.5 points, 4.5 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 42.0 minutes across four appearances this season, albeit on 37.8/22.9/81.6 shooting splits.

Explodes for 45 points in win Maxey produced 45 points (14-32 FG, 5-17 3Pt, 12-15 FT), four rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal over 48 minutes during Sunday's 118-114 overtime win over Indiana.

Impact Maxey tallied only seven points in the first half while shooting 2-for-6 from the field. However, the 23-year-old scored at a high volume in the second half and helped the club secure the overtime victory. Through three regular-season outings, Maxey has three games with 24-plus points, though he has struggled with efficiency as the clear No. 1 option with Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee) sidelined.

Woeful shooting display Maxey had 24 points (6-23 FG, 2-12 3Pt, 10-12 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal in 41 minutes during Friday's 115-107 loss to the Raptors.

Impact The Sixers have started the season with back-to-back losses, and while Maxey has posted solid numbers from a fantasy perspective, managers who drafted him didn't expect him to attempt over 20 shots per game while shooting a meager 27 percent from the field. Small-sample size applies here, and the situation will be different once Paul George (knee) and Joel Embiid (knee) are back in the mix, but for the time being, Maxey should continue to rack up points and tons of shots per game.

Scores 25 in loss Wednesday Maxey had 25 points (10-31 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 124-109 loss to the Bucks.

Impact The 76ers were without Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee) for this season opener, so it wasn't surprising to see Maxey operating as the team's go-to threat on offense, but he lacked support from his teammates to avoid the defeat. Maxey has proven he can lead an offense in the past, and even though the absences of George and Embiid conspire against the 76ers' contender status, they should boost Maxey's fantasy upside, at least on a short-term scenario.

Dishes seven dimes vs. Hawks Maxey finished Monday's 104-89 preseason win over the Hawks with 14 points (5-18 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven assists, two rebounds and two steals across 26 minutes.

Impact Maxey struggled with his efficiency from the field Monday, but he was able to make that up by leading the team in assists. Maxey is coming off his first All-Star selection during the 2023-24 regular season, during which he averaged a career-high 25.9 points per game along with 6.2 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 37.5 minutes per game over 70 contests. Maxey could see increased duties at the start of the 2024-25 regular season if Paul George -- who suffered a left knee injury during Monday's contest -- were to miss time.

Will play Monday Maxey (rest) will start in Monday's preseason against the Hawks.

Impact Maxey, Paul George and Kelly Oubre are all back in action after resting during Saturday's matchup against the Celtics, which was the second night of a back-to-back set. Maxey posted 21 points (7-14 FG) in 26 minutes during Friday's preseason loss to Minnesota.

OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Not expected to play Saturday Maxey is not in the starting five for Saturday's preseason matchup against the Celtics, and he is not expected to play due to rest purposes.

Impact Coach Nick Nurse said Saturday that the 76ers will rest its vets on the second day of a back-to-back road trip, according to Celtics beat reporter Bobby Krivitsky. The 23-year-old's next chance to suit up will be Monday against the Hawks.

Puts up 21 points in loss Maxey finished with 21 points (7-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two assists and a steal across 26 minutes in Friday's 121-111 preseason loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Maxey was one of two Philadelphia starters who reached the 20-point mark, with Paul George being the other, and this game was a fair display of how the 76ers offense would look without Joel Embiid. Maxey seems to be playing better with each passing game in the playoffs, and he should be ready to go once the 76ers open their regular season against the Bucks on Oct. 23.

OCTOBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Goes for 15 points Maxey delivered 15 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), a rebound and three assists across 12 minutes in Monday's 139-84 preseason win over the NBL Breakers.

Impact Maxey was one of four 76ers who scored 15 points in this win, with Guerschon Yabusele, Jared McCain and Reggie Jackson being the others. Maxey was the only "Big Three" member who featured in this game for the 76ers, and he's in line to operate as the team's third offensive option behind Joel Embiid and Paul George. That might lead to a slight regression in his numbers following a career-best year in 2023-24, but it shouldn't be enough to stop considering Maxey as one of the best guards in The Association for fantasy purposes.
