Tyrese Maxey, the talented shooting guard for the Philadelphia 76ers, has been recognized as the Eastern Conference Player of the Week for the second week of the 2025-26 NBA season. This distinction comes after an impressive showing across four games from October 27 to November 2, during which Maxey averaged a staggering 33.5 points per game, coupled with 9.8 assists and 5.3 rebounds. The Sixers' strong early-season run continued as they secured three of their five wins over that period.
This honor marks the beginning of Maxey's season-long awards campaign, following VJ Edgecombe who was also nominated for this recognition in the previous week but ultimately fell short to Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks. With this achievement, Maxey solidifies his position among the top performers in the Eastern Conference.
As the Sixers gear up for their upcoming matchup against the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday night, a battle for supremacy between two teams boasting the conference's best records at 5-1 each, Maxey will face another stiff test. The stage is set for an electrifying contest that promises to showcase the 76ers' prowess and push the young star further in his development as one of the league's most dynamic players.

! He's got this crazy skillset that just takes over games. I was thinking, it's not just about individual greatness though - what's behind his performance? Is it his training regimen? His mental toughness? It's like people are talking about his stats all the time but where's the story being told on a personal level? 
And now he's getting recognized as Eastern Conference Player of the Week? That's awesome for him and the Sixers. Their team is really firing on all cylinders right now and I'm hyped to see how they match up against the Bulls on Tuesday. Maxey's going to have to bring his A-game if they want to come out on top
