The National Dog Show is a Thanksgiving tradition, coming on right after the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on NBC. The event actually took place Nov. 15-16 in Philadelphia, and one of the NBA’s hottest young stars and a former Kentucky Wildcat was part of it. Tyrese Maxey led two dogs through an agility course on the show floor, which the 76ers guard told the Philadelphia Inquirer was one of the most nerve-wracking moments of his life.
“I’ve been on the course with no crowd. So that was my first time with the crowd,” Maxey said.
