Joel Embiid is still the primary offensive player for the Philadelphia 76ers, holding a prominent position as he enters the 2023-2024 NBA season. Despite missing out on the opportunity to defend his MVP title due to injury, he remains a dominant force when healthy.
With James Harden's departure, Tyrese Maxey has solidified his role as Embiid's key sidekick, even as the team added Paul George to bolster their ranks. Maxey has received recognition as one of the league's top No. 2 options, ranking him just outside the top ten.
Continuing to develop, Maxey, now a full-time starter, aims for further improvement, hoping to support Embiid in bringing the Sixers back to the NBA Finals.
