Maxey finished with 38 points (13-23 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals across 38 minutes in Saturday's 109-104 win over Charlotte.
With LeBron James (rest) and Joel Embiid (foot) sidelined for this contest, Maxey stepped up to lead Philadelphia to its sixth win of the 2026-27 campaign. The 25-year-old got off to a hot start, and while he cooled off in the second and third quarters, he got back on track in the fourth by scoring 15 of his 38 points to seal the deal. Maxey has played at an MVP level, averaging a career-best 29.6 points along with 4.1 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.7 steals over 37.6 minutes per outing in seven regular-season appearances.

Rotowire
Maxey amassed 27 points (10-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-7 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block across 38 minutes in Friday's 98-93 win over the Knicks.
Maxey led the Sixers to a second victory in as many games against the Knicks this season, leading all players in scoring. The star point guard didn't have his best performance from the charity stripe, though he turned in an otherwise efficient shooting effort. He has yet to record fewer than 26 points and four assists in a game this season.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Strong outing in win
Rotowire
Maxey finished Wednesday's 114-109 victory over the Pacers with 27 points (8-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 36 minutes.
Maxey took over down the stretch, scoring 17 points in the fourth quarter and knocking down two three-pointers in the final 90 seconds to help Philadelphia secure the comeback victory. The dynamic guard led the 76ers in scoring and continued to shoulder a significant offensive workload despite sharing the floor with several established stars. His combination of scoring volume, perimeter shooting and heavy minutes makes him a dependable fantasy option.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Scores 29 in loss
Rotowire
Maxey logged 29 points (11-24 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, four assists, three steals and a block in 33 minutes during Sunday's 106-93 loss to the Pistons.
It took a while for Maxey to get going Sunday, but he turned it on in the second half, scoring 23 of his 29 points. The star guard also made an impact defensively, posting a game-high three steals and adding a block. There was a moment of concern for Maxey when he and John Collins clashed heads and were slow to get up, but they both appeared to recover shortly thereafter. Still, something to monitor ahead of Wednesday's game against the Pacers.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Puts up 26 points on 22 shots
Rotowire
Maxey contributed 26 points (9-22 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and four assists across 36 minutes in Saturday's 127-116 win over the Bucks.
Maxey remained aggressive offensively, and this was the second straight game in which he attempted at least 20 shots from the field -- and he's yet to shoot under 19 in any game. His substantial shot volume reinforces his prominent role in Philadelphia's offense, but his lack of efficiency could be an issue, especially since he needs to stay effective to avoid ceding touches to Jaylen Brown, Joel Embiid (rest) or LeBron James (back). The scoring efficiency is worth keeping close tabs on -- Maxey is averaging 28.7 points per game in his first three outings but is shooting a mere 32 percent from three-point range.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Well-rounded effort in comeback win
Rotowire
Maxey tallied 32 points (12-23 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-8 FT), six assists, three rebounds and two steals across 42 minutes in Thursday's 114-106 win over the Cavaliers.
Although the 76ers went into halftime facing a 24-point deficit, Maxey dropped 15 points on 6-of-9 shooting in the first half. He was less efficient in the second half but pestered the Cavaliers on the defensive end and recorded both of his two steals in the final two quarters. Maxey finished with a game-high-tying 32 points and also tied for the game high in assists. The star point guard has totaled 60 points, 11 assists, seven rebounds, five steals and three blocks through two regular-season appearances.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Paces Philadelphia in regular-season opener
Rotowire
Maxey amassed 28 points (9-19 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five assists, four rebounds, three steals and three blocks across 40 minutes in Tuesday's 106-100 win over the Knicks.
Maxey struggled from three-point range but got to the charity stripe often and dropped a game-high 28 points against the defending champions. The star point guard contributed across the stat sheet, especially on the defensive end, leading all players in steals while tying for the game-high mark in blocks. The 25-year-old could dish out fewer assists alongside LeBron James and Jaylen Brown this season, though Maxey should remain one of the team's top offensive options.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Hyped up by LeBron James
Rotowire
LeBron James said Monday that his relationship with Maxey played a significant role in his decision to sign with the 76ers, Dave McMenamin of ESPN reports.
James said he narrowed his free-agent choices to five teams before ultimately choosing Philadelphia. The 41-year-old described his relationship with Maxey as "really, really great" and said their extensive conversations were a "main deciding factor" in his decision. James previously revealed that Maxey was among the first players to contact him after he informed the Lakers he wouldn't return, with the two sharing a close relationship that extends beyond basketball. The additions of James and Jaylen Brown should reduce Maxey's responsibilities as Philadelphia's primary ballhandler, potentially allowing him to generate more catch-and-shoot opportunities. Maxey converted 41.7 percent of his 3.4 catch-and-shoot three-point attempts per game during the 2025-26 regular season compared to just 33.5 percent on 5.2 pull-up attempts, so a change in shot profile could lead to improved efficiency from beyond the arc.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Could see less usage
Rotowire
Maxey's role figures to evolve after Philadelphia assembled a star-studded roster featuring LeBron James and Jaylen Brown, Paul Hudrick of Liberty Ballers reports.
He may handle the ball less often than in recent seasons, but sharing the floor with multiple elite creators should improve the quality of Maxey's scoring opportunities and allow him to operate more efficiently as both a scorer and secondary playmaker. Maxey still projects to be an elite fantasy producer.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Puts up 17 points in Game 4
Rotowire
Maxey finished Sunday's 144-114 loss to the Knicks in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with 17 points (6-16 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 33 minutes.
The 76ers didn't put up much of a fight in Sunday's season-ending loss, but Maxey at least managed to put up at least 17 points for the 10th time in 11 playoff games. The superstar guard took another step forward for Philadelphia in 2025-26, averaging a career-high 28.3 points, 6.6 assists, 4.1 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 3.1 three-pointers in 38.0 minutes per tilt over 70 regular-season games.

Maxey again struggled from beyond the arc and was careless with the rock, coughing up another six turnovers. Through the first two games of this series, Maxey has shot 1-for-9 from three-point territory while tossing away a total of 10 turnovers. He'll need to be better if the 76ers hope to right the ship in Game 3 on Friday.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Struggles in Game 1 loss
Rotowire
Maxey registered 13 points (3-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 27 minutes during Monday's 137-98 loss to the Knicks in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
After posting a 30-point, 11-rebound double-double in Saturday's Game 7 win over Boston in the first round, Maxey cooled off Monday. The star point guard struggled to find a rhythm on the offensive end, failing to reach the 20-point threshold for the first time this postseason. He was one of five Philadelphia players to score in double figures, though none had more than 17. Maxey will look to bounce back in Game 2 on Wednesday.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Goes for 30 and 11 in Game 7 win
Rotowire
Maxey provided 30 points (11-18 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 11 rebounds and seven assists across 45 minutes during Saturday's 109-100 victory over Boston in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Maxey put a bow on what was an elite first-round series, scoring at least 30 points for the second straight game while also pulling down a season-high 11 rebounds. He averaged 26.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.3 three-pointers in the series. Heading into the second round against New York, Maxey may need to take his game to yet another level, especially if Joel Embiid is limited due to a knee concern stemming from Game 7.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Double-doubles in win

Maxey closed with 25 points (10-18 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 43 minutes during Tuesday's 113-97 win over the Celtics in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Maxey recorded his first double-double of the playoffs, helping lead Philadelphia to an impressive road victory. Despite the return of Joel Embiid, Maxey has been able to maintain his elite production, having scored at least 21 points in all five games while also averaging 5.2 rebounds, 6.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 5.6 three-pointers. Tuesday's victory means the series will now shift back to Philadelphia, where the 76ers will look to tie things up at 3-3.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Posts 22 points in blowout loss
Rotowire
Maxey supplied 22 points (7-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one block in 40 minutes during Sunday's 128-96 loss to the Celtics in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Maxey looked more like he did in Game 1 during Sunday's loss, recording only 22 points after going for 29 points in Game 2 and 31 points in Game 3. A massive total from the star point guard hasn't been enough to beat the Celtics, and a regressive total like Sunday's effort won't help matters as they try to find their way out of this series. Maxey converted 50 percent of his shots and was very consistent, but the team will need an explosive total from Maxey in Game 5 to avoid elimination.

Maxey continued his dominant season, scoring a game-high 31 points, lifting the 76ers to an emphatic victory. Despite being without Joel Embiid (appendicitis), Philadelphia was able to get the job done over a disappointing Magic outfit. Although Boston will go into the first-round series as firm favorites, Maxey will certainly be giving it his all in the hopes of causing an upset.

Maxey produced 21 points (8-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes during Sunday's 126-106 win over Milwaukee.
Maxey put together a team-leading 21 points with only 27 minutes of court time. The 76ers wisely let Maxey sit after a productive first half, as the team needs the elite point guard at his best in Tuesday's Play-In Game against Orlando.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Drops team-high 23 in loss
Rotowire
Maxey accumulated a team-high 23 points (9-20 FG, 5-10 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists over 33 minutes during Thursday's 113-102 loss to the Rockets.
The 25-year-old guard was one of three Sixers to score at least 20 points on the night, but it wasn't quite enough to keep pace with the home squad. Maxey has been productive since returning in late March from a finger injury, and over seven games since getting back in the lineup, he's averaging 22.9 points, 6.9 assists, 4.1 boards and 2.1 threes.
