Tyrese Maxey was critical of his own performance against the Bucks on Wednesday.
for the season opener. While their opponent missed an All-Star-caliber player in Khris Middleton, the Sixers were down two stars, missing Joel Embiid and Paul George. As expected, the pressure was placed on Tyrese Maxey to be the team’s go-to guy for the night.
“I think we played hard. … Messed up on some gameplay mistakes, but otherwise, played really hard. We got to make shots. I mean, I shot the ball horribly, and it shows," said Maxey. The game was still in reach heading into the third quarter, but Maxey’s shooting struggles continued. In ten minutes of action during the third quarter, Maxey hit on just one of his five attempts from the field to score three points.
The Sixers will start the season 0-1 after taking on a tough 124-109 loss. Maxey finished with 25 points. In addition to his scoring, the veteran guard collected six rebounds and dished out three assists. On a positive note, he turned the ball over just once.
