Tyrese Maxey's Girlfriend Myra Gordon drops 3-word reaction to 76ers star's adorable snap with nephew
Tyrese Maxey’s girlfriend Myra Gordon has been affectionate to her partner since they started dating earlier this year. On Tuesday, Gordon expressed her adoration for Maxey and her nephew after an eventful Thanksgiving celebration with their families.
Gordon shared a post from her sister Kim Gordon on her Instagram story, which featured a snap of Maxey and her nephew all smiles before a Philadelphia 76ers game. Gordon added a three-word caption.
“Love these 2,” Gordon wrote.
It was not the first time Gordon posted about her loved ones recently, as they both celebrated their birthdays in November and Gordon shared pictures of the special occasion.
“Celebrating 23 with my faves,” Gordon wrote on Nov. 18.
Maxey was not in the series of pictures as the 76ers had a game versus the New York Knicks. However, he commented on it with a heart emoji.
Gordon is a licensed realtor following a collegiate basketball career at Alabama. Gordon and Maxey have long been rumored to be in a relationship since being spotted at the US Open and an NFL game in September.
In the offseason, Maxey signed a five-year $203.5 million extension, making him one of the highest-paid players in Philadelphia.
Former 76er says he is proud of Tyrese Maxey’s development in Philadelphia
Aside from the losing record, the 76ers have also suffered from numerous injuries to their stars, Paul George and Joel Embiid, leaving Tyrese Maxey to carry the majority of the load.
The struggles prompted the team to have a players only meeting on Nov. 20 where Maxey reportedly called out Embiid for being late for practices and team functions.
Former 76er James Harden has since shown his support for Maxey, expressing how proud he is of the All-Star guard for his growth this season despite the team’s slump.
"Improvement," Harden said on Nov. 25, via Yahoo! Sports. "No matter what the situation is, whether they're fully healthy or he’s out there by himself, his role doesn’t change. He continues to be aggressive. He continues to grow. He continues to see different coverages every night. We communicate often, so we talk about just the game and things that we both see."
Maxey is averaging 25.9 points, 3.2 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game. He will need to continue his excellent play if the 76ers want to be in the playoff hunt this season.
