Tyrese Maxey and his foundation, the Tyrese Maxey Foundation, distributed 3,000 meals to locals in need in Philadelphia on Saturday morning.

After his 54-point performance on Thursday, Maxey joined Hall of Famer Wilt Chamberlain as the only two players in franchise history to produce at least 50 points and nine assists in a game.

During one 12-game span where Maxey was healthy and had adjusted to life atop the opponent’s scouting report, he was sensational. He averaged 33.7 points on 65.3% true shooting, numbers that align pretty well with the 33.4 points he’s averaging on 61.8% true shooting in 15 games this season. In actuality, the aberration was the poor play.

Maxey’s remarkable performance came one night after he played 39 minutes in a 121-112 loss to the Toronto Raptors. The 76ers have leaned on Maxey even more heavily because injuries have limited the availability of 2023 MVP Joel Embiid and six-time All-NBA wing Paul George.

Perhaps it was the vintage black Sixers threads, or maybe it was Maxey’s lightning-quick first step and savvy skillset, but Paul George saw flashes of Sixers icon Allen Iverson from the Eastern Conference scoring leader in Thursday’s overtime thriller.

Philadelphia 76ers star, Tyrese Maxey, helped ensure local families have a happy Thanksgiving. Together with volunteers and collaborators with the "Tyrese Maxey Foundation," they were able to give away 3,000 turkey dinners. Tyrese Maxey's mother, Denyse Maxey, was there to represent the foundation as the Executive Director.
