Daily News | Sixers star Tyrese Maxey honored with NBA Community Assist Award
“It’s something that I already was committed to do, and I wanted to do it,” Maxey said the day after the event. “My mom and my dad just asked me if I didn’t want to go [or] if I just wanted to do a video or something.
“I was like, ‘No,’ because my biggest thing was I wanted them to be able to touch me and I wanted to be able to be accessible to them and show them that I really care, because it really means something to me.” Maxey’s other recent community initiatives include a surprise back-to-school appearance at Forest Hills Elementary in Camden, where 300 students received a new backpack. He also held summer skills camps in Philly, his hometown of Garland, Texas, and Lexington .Maxey will remain out with his injury against the Clippers. Coach Doc Rivers said Wednesday that it’s still unclear when he will return.
