Tyrese Maxey's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) is active ahead of Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Maxey will make his return to the lineup after missing each of the last six games due to a lingering hamstring issue. His return should be a huge boost to the Sixers lineup considering Maxey was producing at an elite level before going down. The expectation is that Maxey will be limited during his first game back in the lineup. Jared McCain will likely see his production take a hit with Maxey returning. Fantasy managers should hold McCain for now to wait and see how he produces with Maxey playing alongside him.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) has been upgraded from out to questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Maxey has missed the last six games due to a right hamstring strain. It sounds like he's on the verge of returning which is great news for this Sixers team. Fellow guard Kyle Lowry (hip) has been ruled out for at least the next three games. That means, Jared McCain should see heavy minutes if Maxey and Lowry are both out. McCain has been excellent lately and is someone who needs to be rostered in most formats. Reggie Jackson and Eric Gordon figure to gain minutes as well if Maxey remains out. If active, Maxey might be on a minutes limit during his first game back, so fantasy managers should be mindful of that.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) has been out since November 6 when he strained his hamstring against the Los Angeles Clippers. According to Shams Charania, the star combo guard could return as early as Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. He said there was "optimism" around Maxey's return, so nothing official just yet. Fantasy managers will want to stay tuned for the injury report on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. In the meantime, Jared McCain will see heavy minutes with Kyle Lowry alongside him in the starting lineup.
