The The Philadelphia 76ers are taking over Miami Heat on Thursday. During the competition, the star guard Tyrese McKay made franchise history by surpassing one of the Allen Iverson‘s team records.

“Tyreese Maxey passed Allen Iverson for the most 3-point field goals made in 76ers HISTORY.”

Maxey will have a chance to continue adding to his franchise record. Especially considering the six-year veteran signed a five-year, $204 million contract in the summer of 2024. That deal would have him in Philadelphia through the 2028-29 campaign.

The 25-year-old guard has emerged as a superstar in Philly since joining the club in 2020. He finally had his breakout year in the 2023-24 campaign after earning Player of the Year honors for his efforts.

Tirese McKay continued to play at a high level, as he entered Thursday’s game with 29.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 2.0 steals per game while shooting 46.7% from the field and 37.5% from the three-point line. His performances this season earned him the second All-Star honor of his career.

Maxi breaks Iverson’s record that was set back in the 2009-10 season. It took about 16 years for that franchise record to be broken. Tyrese Maxey managed to surpass Allen Iverson’s three-point record in just six seasons, while it took the 76ers legend just over 10 seasons to reach 885 three-pointers. However, the game has changed significantly since then, as players shoot more 3-pointers than ever before.
