Tyrese Maxey has grown by leaps and bounds, flourishing into an MVP-caliber player for the Philadelphia 76ers so far this season. He has been their best player without a doubt, and the single biggest reason as to why the team even boasts a winning record almost month into the regular season.
Really, an argument could be made that Maxey has been the best backcourt player in the entire Eastern Conference this season. He is third in the league at scoring with 32.3 markers a night while also tallying 7.6 assists per outing. Even better, his high scoring is coupled with above-average efficiency, having drained almost 47 percent of his shots and nearly 39 percent of his three-point tries.
