Tyrese Maxey’s “savvy” is his most dangerous attribute

We all remember Malik Monk putting up 47 points against North Carolina. We know Jamal Murray’s scoring in 2015-2016 is top 10 in school history.

But both of those guys have been gone for several seasons, and Kentucky fans have really missed having an elite scorer that can completely take over a game.

Meet Tyrese Maxey.

CoachCal.com introduced Maxey on Monday as their first feature on the Meet the Wildcats series for the coming season. While it’s obvious that Maxey can score the basketball from all levels, John Calipari seems even more impressed by the young guard’s basketball IQ.
