December 29 recently, grizzly player Danny Green talked about his former teammate Maxie in his podcast.
Green said: “Tyrese (Maxie) is a very humble young man. When we get Harden, he wants to know why he and Harden are starting together. He wants to play on the bench.” I told him it was because he was great. Tyrese has averaged 20 points per game since Harden came and he has shown a lot.
“he himself said it was good to play with Harden, but playing on the bench would help the team score on the bench because our substitutes were me and Drummond and we didn’t have any substitutes who could score.”
Last season, Maxi averaged 17.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 4.3 assists in regular games and 20.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists in the playoffs.
