Tyrese Maxey gained the title of the NBA's Most Improved Player on Tuesday night.
The NBA announced that Maxey earned the honor on Tuesday night. Bulls guard Coby White and Rockets center Alperen Şengün were the other two finalists for the accolade, which was voted on by a 100-person panel of sportswriters and broadcasters.
“It’s literally like big brother, little brother. When I come over sometimes and he passes me the ball and I don’t shoot — and I drive or do anything else — I know that I’m going to get an earful from Joel Embiid. “If you’re sitting there and looking at these awards, you say, ‘Let’s compare this guy’s numbers with that guy’s numbers.’ But his awareness, his defense, his toughness … just his overall play. I think a lot of things have gone up as well.”
