The Sixers season is almost upon us, and we’re trying and failing to not get carried away with just how awesome Tyrese Maxey can be. He was a revelation in 2022, and expectations are even higher for his third year, where he may be careening for the max extension that evaded both New York’s R.J. Barrett and Miami’s Tyler Herro.
So we’re wondering, is there any chance that the Kentucky product, who somehow slipped to Philly during the 2020 NBA Draft, might blossom into the Sixers’ No. 2 weapon this year, assuming Joel Embiid continues his MVP-caliber dominance?
