UPDATE (Mar. 22):
Tyrese Maxey finished Monday’s 109-105 loss to the Bulls with 22 points (9-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 6 assists, 5 rebounds, and 1 block in 46 minutes. He also had 6 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks.
Maxey has scored more than 20 points in eight of his 11 games this month. He has averaged 22.1 points, 3.4 assists, 3.4 threes, and 2.8 rebounds while shooting 56.1 percent from the floor and a stunning 52.1 percent from beyond the arc.
UPDATE (Mar. 20):
Saturday’s 141-121 victory over the Pacers was capped off by 35 minutes of play from Tyrese Maxey, who finished with 31 points (12-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 2 rebounds, 7 assists, and 1 steal.
Maxey, coming off a poor performance in Friday’s victory over Charlotte, started for the tenth straight game on Saturday. With 31 points, he tied Joel Embiid for the game high and recorded his sixth 30-point game of the season, which proved to be a turning point for the 76ers.
As the playoffs heat up, Philadelphia is now only one game behind the Celtics for second place in the Eastern Conference. If the 76ers want to secure home-court advantage for at least the first two rounds of the playoffs, Maxey will need to log significant minutes in each of their four games next week.
UPDATE (Mar. 18):
Maxey is prepared to compete on Saturday against the Pacers in this matchup.
UPDATE (Mar. 17):
Tyrese Maxey finished Wednesday’s 118-109 win over the Cavaliers with 23 points (8-14 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 4 rebounds, and 3 assists in 35 minutes.
Maxey started the season as a starter, but he missed a lot of time in November and December and was mostly put in the sixth spot. Since then, he has been put back into the starting lineup and has averaged 22.1 points per game in the last eight games since then.
If Philadelphia wants to compete for one of the top two spots in the Eastern Conference, Maxey will need to keep producing at a high level.
