Maxey recorded 39 points (16-28 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-5 FT), eight assists, three rebounds, two steals and a block in 35 minutes during Sunday's 135-108 win over the Timberwolves.
Maxey did the majority of his scoring inside the three-point line Sunday, getting downhill and scoring efficiently at the rim. Perhaps his most notable bucket came in transition, where he shook a perimeter defender and threw down an emphatic left-handed dunk over Anthony Edwards. On top of his scoring display, Maxey posted a game-high eight assists. Sunday's outburst is a continuation of outstanding play for Maxey, who has scored at least 25 points in each of his last seven games, averaging 30.1 points, 6.1 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 2.1 steals in 35.8 minutes per game over that stretch.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Drops 28 points in defeat
Rotowire
Maxey supplied 28 points (8-23 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 8-8 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 39 minutes during Thursday's 117-107 loss to Atlanta.
While Maxey wasn't able to post 30-plus points for a third straight game and didn't deliver his most efficient performance, he still led the Sixers in scoring. The star point guard has reached the 25-point mark in five consecutive contests, and he knocked down more than three triples for the first time since Feb. 2. Over seven February appearances, he has averaged 26.9 points, 5.3 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.9 steals per contest. Maxey tallied his first block of the month Thursday and has now recorded a steal in each of his last nine outings.
Maxey logged 32 points (9-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 11-13 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 138-89 loss to New York.
Maxey received very little support in Wednesday's rout, but he was able to put up at least 26 points for the sixth time in his last eight games. With Paul George already out via suspension, Maxey would likely continue to take on all the usage he can handle if Joel Embiid (knee) isn't ready to take the court following the All-Star break. Over his last eight outings, the All-Star guard is averaging 27.3 points, 6.3 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 3.1 three-pointers in 35.9 minutes per game.
76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Leads with 30 points in defeat
Rotowire
Maxey finished with 30 points (10-21 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 8-8 FT), one rebound, four assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Monday's 135-118 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Maxey enjoyed his usual prolific production, but it wasn't enough to withstand the Trail Blazers' brilliant performance. Everyone in the starting lineup scored in double digits, but only Kelly Oubre finished well beyond that benchmark. While Maxey has gotten ample support from his teammates recently, the rest of the first unit produced only 53 points in the losing effort, as the unit continues to struggle whenever Joel Embiid (knee) isn't in the lineup.
Maxey amassed 29 points (8-21 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 10-11 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and one steal across 40 minutes during Saturday's 109-103 win over Phoenix.
Maxey was only one rebound shy of recording a second consecutive double-double, the first of which came against the Lakers on Thursday. The standout guard's numbers are shooting back up after a tepid performance against the Lakers earlier in the week, but that game should be considered an outlier compared to Maxey's usual body of work.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Double-double in loss to Lakers
Rotowire
Maxey amassed 26 points (11-22 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 13 assists and four steals in 37 minutes during Thursday's 119-115 loss to the Lakers.
The double-double was Maxey's sixth of the season. The star guard has been struggling to find his shot from downtown, going 2-for-14 on three-point attempts over the last two games, but he's scored at least 20 points in nine of the last 12 contests while averaging 23.7 points, 7.8 assists, 3.3 boards, 2.7 steals and 2.4 threes.
Maxey amassed 29 points (9-18 FG, 7-14 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, six assists and three steals over 36 minutes during Monday's 128-113 win over the Clippers.
Maxey matched his best showing of the season beyond the arc with seven three-pointers during the decisive victory. He shot a solid 50 percent from the floor in the contest, bouncing back after an uncharacteristically low 18 points in his previous game versus the Pelicans.
76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Takes back seat to Embiid in win
Rotowire
Maxey had 18 points (7-18 FG, 4-9 3Pt), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Saturday's 124-114 victory over New Orleans.
The 25-year-old guard let Joel Embiid take the lead on offense, with the center pouring in 40 points, but Maxey still dropped at least six dimes for the ninth straight game. During that span, Maxey's averaging 23.9 points, 8.0 assists, 3.3 assists, 2.6 steals and 2.2 threes.
