DraftNasty spotlights Kentucky PG Tyrese Maxey
1 min readDuring his time at the prep level for South Garland HS (Tex.), Maxey filled up the stat sheet. The consensus five-star recruit finally ended up signing with the Wildcats and earned second-team All-SEC honors in 2019-20. Maxey averaged 14 points per game and shot an impressive 83.3-percent from the free throw line.
Known for his clutch play during his brief stay in Lexington, Maxey has a solid chance to hear his name called in the first round of the 2020 NBA Draft. We caught our first glimpse of Maxey’s diverse game during his days on the Nike EYBL circuit with the Houston Hoops AAU squad.
