Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey will be in the All-Star game on Sunday in Indianapolis, but on Saturday, he participated in the skills challenge as well.
Maxey was a part of Team All-Stars alongside fellow stars Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks and Scottie Barnes of the Toronto Raptors. The trio won the shooting part of the skills challenge which got them to the final round against Team Pacers.
The final came down to the half-court shot with Maxey hitting the half-court shot for Team All-Stars in 58.8 seconds left. Team Pacers ended up winning the skills challenge as Tyrese Haliburton hit the half-court shot in quicker time with 20.5 seconds left.

After making the shot, Haliburton hit everybody with the classic Reggie Miller choke sign.
