• 76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Out at least one week

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  The 76ers announced Friday that Maxey has been diagnosed with a right hamstring strain and will be re-evaluated in approximately one week, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports. Maxey suffered the injury during Wednesday's loss to the Clippers, and given that the one-week mark merely represents a re-evaluation date, fantasy managers should expect the point guard's absence to stretch into late November. Jared McCain, Kyle Lowry and Reggie Jackson are all candidates for increased roles while Maxey works his way back to playing form.

• 76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Won't return Wednesday

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Maxey has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against the Clippers due to right hamstring soreness, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports. He'll finish with 12 points (5-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 32 minutes. Maxey was replaced by Jared McCain to start the fourth quarter, and it's now known he's dealing with hamstring soreness. Per Aaronson, Philadelphia coach Nick Nurse called Maxey's removal "precautionary" and didn't seem concerned about the injury. The 24-year-old has been utilized heavily to start the season as Paul George and Joel Embiid (knee/suspension) were unavailable, averaging 41 minutes per game prior to Wednesday's tilt. McCain and Kyle Lowry figure to see a bump in playing time while Maxey is sidelined. Maxey's next chance to play will come Friday against the Lakers.

• 76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Pops for team-high 32 on Monday

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Maxey closed Monday's 118-116 loss to the Suns with 32 points (12-22 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 41 minutes. The fifth-year guard topped 30 points for the third time in the last four games, but even with Paul George making his 76ers debut, Maxey didn't get quite enough help to steal a win on the road. Maxey's usage should decline once George is up to speed and Joel Embiid (knee) is back in action as well. However, Maxey has taken full advantage of his spot as Philadelphia's lead dog so far, averaging what would be a career-high 30.2 points per game to begin the 2024-25 campaign.

  Maxey amassed 32 points (12-25 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 40 minutes during Wednesday's 105-95 loss to the Pistons. With Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee) both out, Maxey has taken over as the 76ers' top option on offense. Maxey has used that increased workload to score at least 30 points in back-to-back games. The 24-year-old guard is averaging 31.5 points, 4.5 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 42.0 minutes across four appearances this season, albeit on 37.8/22.9/81.6 shooting splits.
