Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey is always looking to take the next step to become a better player in this league in an effort to win a title. The 5-year guard has already been named an All-Star, but has yet to get past Round 2 in the playoffs as he looks to lead the Sixers deep into the playoffs.

The Los Angeles Lakers are set to play the 2025-26 NBA season with Luka Doncic and LeBron James leading the way. Gone are the days of James being the franchise player for the team. Doncic has taken that role over for the Lakers already after being acquired before the trade deadline last year.
