Tyrese Maxey is an excellent option for a points prop after producing a career-best 28,3 points per game last season. His speed, ability to attack the basket and reliable three-point shooting make him one of Philadelphia’s main offensive weapons. He also started this season strongly with 28 points against the New York Knicks, showing that he can clear this line when given his usual workload.
The matchup against Cleveland should provide opportunities for Maxey to score, especially if he can create separation in transition and attack gaps in the Cavaliers’ defence. With a 22,5-point line sitting well below his previous season average, Maxey has a strong statistical case to reach 23 or more points. His minutes and shooting efficiency will still be important against a competitive Cleveland side.
