He ranked 11th in the league in scoring average and 20th in assists. He also made a career-best 212 3-pointers, up from 160 last season. He tied for the league lead with three 50-point games.

Philadelphia selected Maxey 21st overall in the 2020 NBA Draft out of Kentucky. He has career averages of 18.2 points, 4.1 assists and 2.9 rebounds in 266 games (193 starts).
