Sixers rookie Tyrese Maxey spent New Year’s Day in the gym working out

New Year’s Day is normally a day where people recover from all of the partying the night before ringing in the new year. For Philadelphia 76ers rookie Tyrese Maxey, he clearly does not know the meaning of rest and recovery as he went straight to the gym to ring in 2021.

The Sixers spent New Year’s Eve in Orlando as they knocked off the Magic on the road to improve to 4-1 on the season. It was a nice night for the team overall as they knocked down 15 3-pointers and they really put a beatdown on Orlando as they led by as many as 38.

Maxey contributed to the win as well scoring 10 points off the bench, but he was back in the gym as soon as the team returned home to Philadelphia.

Maxey is off to a solid start to his NBA career averaging 4.8 points and 1.4 assists off Philadelphia’s bench. He is shooting 40% from the floor, but he has yet to make a 3-pointer as he has missed all five of his attempts from deep.
