76ers' Tyrese Maxey Out for Season After Finger Injury

The Philadelphia 76ers officially announced that All-Star guard Tyrese Maxey will miss the remainder of the season due to a reinjury of his sprained right finger, confirmed by MRI results. Maxey had not played since March 3, struggling with both a lower back sprain and his finger injury, and his absence will extend into the final three games of the season. Coach Nick Nurse expressed disappointment, noting that he had hoped to see Maxey return to experiment with different lineups. Despite his limited playtime, Maxey averaged a career-high 26.3 points this season, contributing significantly while other stars like Joel Embiid faced injuries. The Sixers are also dealing with an array of injuries, leading to a disappointing season that will likely end with one of the worst records in the league. The team is expected to focus on recovery and preparation for the 2025-26 season as they finish out their current campaign.
