Tyrese Maxey believes that star players must prioritize the team's success over their personal achievements.

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Tyrese Maxey said that the team's stars should prioritize the team's success over their personal achievements, and no one should be overly arrogant.

With LeBron James and Jaylen Brown traded to the Philadelphia 76ers, the NBA championship race for the new season has become even more anticipated. However, managing the competition among players within the team will be one of the challenges head coach Nick Nurse must face.

Tyrese Maxi, 25, said, "I think it will depend on the specific situation. I think the most important thing is that we can't let anyone become individualistic, and no one on the team can be too individualistic."

"Our team has two players who have won the regular season MVP, two players who have won the Finals MVP, multiple gold medalists, and even multiple players who average more than 25 points per game, All-Star players, and All-NBA players. Each of us has achieved a lot."

Tyrese Maxie emphasized, "Therefore, everyone must put aside personal gains and losses, prioritize the team, and work together to achieve the goal."

In addition, Philadelphia 76ers President of Basketball Operations Mike Gansey previously stated, "My job is to build the best team and bring as much talent as possible to the team. But on the other hand, I also consider the issue of players' playing opportunities. For example, when Jaylen Brown was with the Boston Celtics last year, he had to be the core player of that team, and players like LeBron James also have to be the core of the team."

“Right now, we have three or even four core players on the same team, so it will take some time for them to gel. But I would rather have these talents first and then figure out how to integrate them.”

Mike Gansey also stated, "We have so many talented players, and they're all willing to sacrifice. Now we have to be on the training ground and see how this all works."
