Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey was honored with the prestigious 2023-24 NBA Sportsmanship Award, adding to his accolades after being named the Most Improved Player last month. The 23-year-old received the Joe Dumars Trophy, a testament to his exemplary conduct both on and off the court.
The NBA Sportsmanship Award, established in the 1995-96 season, recognizes the player who embodies the highest standards of sportsmanship during games. Each of the 30 NBA teams nominated a player for the award, with a panel of six league executives selecting one finalist from each of the league's six divisions. The ultimate winner was determined by current NBA players from a pool of six finalists.
