Tyrese Maxey

TYRESE MAXEY (PHI)

TOP DOG

NBA ROLE: ELITE, SCORING PG

 

Tyrese “Mad” Maxey has assumed great responsibility as an efficient, go-to offensive weapon in the starting 5; easy athlete w/ supersonic speed, yet lets the game come to him; real two-way, playmaking ability - Maxey’s a disruptive defender who fits right into Philly’s long, athletic lineup; great hands, plays passing lanes and moves well laterally; great float game, launches after creating separation, can hit on the move without too much trouble; good set shooter, though a bit streaky at this stage - becoming more comfortable rising off the dribble; pretty creative finisher in the lane: Maxey doesn’t rush at the basket, knows how to contort his body without losing control; excellent control as a decision maker, doesn’t force action as a playmaker or turn the ball over too often; 2024 All-Star: real co-star next to Joel Embiid in Philly: Maxey’s outlook is through the roof*

*DIFFERENT BREED in 2025?
