when will tyrese maxey return

Tyrese Maxey is expected to be reevaluated about three weeks after his March 10 injury update, which puts the first real return window around March 31, 2026. The soonest he could realistically play again is likely the April 1 road game at Washington, though a more cautious return would be April 3 at home.

What the latest reports say

  • He has a tendon injury in his right pinkie finger.
  • The team said he will be reevaluated in approximately three weeks.
  • That makes a late-March update the key checkpoint for his status.

Most likely return window

  • Best-case: April 1 vs. the Wizards.
  • More likely: April 3 vs. the Timberwolves, since teams often prefer players to return at home.
  • If recovery lags: he could miss more of March and possibly a bit beyond the reevaluation point.

Context

Maxey’s absence matters a lot for Philadelphia because he has been a central part of their lineup this season. The 76ers are still in playoff-position territory, so the team has a clear incentive to be careful rather than rush him back.

Bottom line

For now, the cleanest answer is: late March to early April 2026 is the expected return window, with April 1–3 looking like the most realistic on- court comeback range.
