Philadelphia Sixers, Tyrese Maxey | Emilee Chinn/GettyImagesPhiladelphia Sixers fans have watched Tyrese Maxey blossom into a star, going from averaging eight points per game as a rookie to a career-high 26.3 points per game this past season. He's an important part of the direction the Sixers want to go in — a championship — and Maxey is happy to be along for the ride.
During what was a disappointing 2024-25 season, Maxey made it clear that he loves the organization and wants to be in Philadelphia as long as possible, doing whatever it takes to win. He was coming off an offseason where he signed a five-year extension, a testament to how the Sixers feel about him.
