Tyrese Maxey Set to Make History in 2026 NBA 3-Point Contest

Philadelphia's own Tyrese Maxey is poised to take his skills to new heights, literally, as he makes his first appearance in the prestigious 3-Point Contest during next weekend's NBA All-Star festivities. This Sunday afternoon announcement from the league came with a star-studded lineup of competitors that has fans buzzing.

Maxey will join eight other talented players on the field, including two-time champion Damian Lillard who is looking to extend his winning streak with a third title. And, in what promises to be an intriguing matchup, Maxey will face off against none other than injured All-Star Damian Lillard, who has been ruled out for the entire season with a torn Achilles.

This appearance marks a significant milestone for Maxey, as he prepares to make his second NBA All-Star Game start. His inclusion in this highly anticipated event solidifies Philadelphia's presence across all three days of the festivities, which will see VJ Edgecombe take center stage on Friday during the Rising Stars Challenge, and Maxey shine on Saturday and Sunday.

The 2026 State Farm 3-Point Contest is set to take place on Saturday, February 14th at 5 p.m. ET, with fans eagerly anticipating this highly competitive event that promises to deliver thrilling shooting performances. With a mix of seasoned veterans and young talent competing for the coveted title, only time will tell who will emerge victorious in this battle of marksmanship.

Maxey's appearance marks an exciting addition to what promises to be a spectacular NBA All-Star weekend.

I'm so hyped to see Tyrese Maxey taking part in the 3-Point Contest next year 🤩, it's gonna be sick! His skills on the court are insane and I think he's got a good shot at winning 🎯... or not, because Damian Lillard is injured and can't compete 🤕. This event is always so much fun to watch, and with Philly having VJ Edgecombe as part of the Rising Stars Challenge too, it's gonna be an epic weekend 🎉!
 
Ugh, great, just what we need... more drama on the court 🙄. Like Damian Lillard is going to make it to the contest and then suddenly get hurt? 😂 Come on, league! Maxey's gonna shine, though. He's been killing it all season 💥. Can't wait to see him take on those other talented players... fingers crossed for an entertaining contest 🤞. Only 6 months to go until February 14th, already feeling the excitement building ⏰.
 
🤩 This is so cool! Tyrese Maxey is gonna crush it on that 3-point contest 🚀 I'm loving how Philly rep is strong this year, too - VJ Edgecombe in the Rising Stars Challenge? That's some great stuff 💥 And Maxey going up against a legendary shooter like Damian Lillard? It's all about who can come out on top 😅 Can't wait to see him do his thing on the big stage!
 
omg I'm low-key hyped 🤩🔥! Did u know that the 3-Point Contest has seen a massive surge in viewership over the past few years? 📈 it's up by 27% from last year, and with Tyrese Maxey joining the lineup, I gotta predict we'll see even more engagement this year! 💬 check out these stats - average viewership per game for the NBA All-Star Weekend has increased by 45% since 2020. 📊 it's clear that the event is becoming a global phenomenon! 🌎

I'm all about him making history and reppin' Philly on that big stage 💪. The fact that he'll be facing off against Damian Lillard (who's still gonna be pretty amazing even with a bum Achilles 🤕) just makes it more intense 🔥. Can't wait to see Maxey bring the heat and show us what he's working with 💥. This is gonna be EPIC 🎉!
 
omg I'm so hyped for the 3-point contest! 🤩 I've been practicing my shot with my friends and we're all super competitive 😂 it would be sick if Tyrese Maxey wins it! did you know that there's a special food called "snickerdoodle" that's kinda like cinnamon sugar cookies? 🍪🍰 I love those things!
 
🤯 Can you believe it? Tyrese Maxey is gonna take on Damian Lillard (not the one playing) at the 3-point contest 🏀🎯! I'm hyped for this, the competition is gonna be insane with all these stars lining up. VJ Edgecombe bringing that fire to the Rising Stars Challenge on Friday is already giving me chills 😲 Maxey's got game, and now he gets to show off his skills in front of a huge crowd. It's gonna be a battle royale out there! 💥 I'm gonna tune in, and I know my friends from Philly are hyped too 🤩
 
I'm so stoked to see Tyrese Maxey getting a chance to shine on that big stage! He's been killin' it on the court all season and I know he's gonna bring the heat in that 3-Point Contest 🤯. It's awesome that Philly is repin' well across the All-Star weekend, VJ Edgecombe better bring his A-game too 😂. And, omg, Damian Lillard vs Tyrese Maxey? That's like a rivalry in the makin' 🔥! Can't wait to tune in and see what kinda magic they're gonna conjure up on February 14th 🎉.
 
I gotta think, have you guys noticed that they're just hyping up Tyrese Maxey for the 3-Point Contest to distract us from the REAL issues? I mean, come on, a torn Achilles and he's still playing in this contest? That's some suspiciously convenient timing if you ask me 🤔. And what about Damian Lillard getting injured right when it counts? Coincidence or agenda? And don't even get me started on the State Farm 3-Point Contest itself... is that just a front for something more sinister, like a massive data collection operation or something? I'm not saying it's all bad, but you gotta keep an open mind, folks 🤷‍♂️.
 
🤩 I'm so hyped that Tyrese Maxey is entering the 3-Point Contest! It's awesome that he's getting the chance to showcase his skills against other top-notch players 🏀💪. The competition is gonna be fierce, especially with Damian Lillard returning from injury 😬. I'm curious to see how Maxey will do against him - it'll be a great test of his skills! 💥
 
I'm thinkin' about how these high-flying athletes are gonna put it all on the line for that title 🏆... It's crazy to think about how much pressure they're under, and yet, here they go, droppin' three-pointers like it's no big deal 🤯. What does it say about us as a society that we can just tune in and watch these dudes compete? Is it just entertainment, or is there somethin' more at play? I mean, Tyrese Maxey's got his sights set on history, but what if he doesn't make it? Does the win define him, or is it about the journey? And let's not forget Damian Lillard's injury - it's a reminder that even the best can fall. It's all just so... human 🌟.
 
OMG you guys! 🤯 Tyrese Maxey is about to SLAY the 3-Point Contest stage! 😍 I'm low-key hyped for this, it's gonna be lit 💥 He's got the skills, he's got the talent, and now he's got a shot at making history 🏆🔥. Damian Lillard vs Tyrese Maxey? Bring it on! 🔴⚡️ The competition is fierce but I'm rooting for Philly's own! 🇵🇮💪 Can't wait to see him shine on the big stage 💫 #TyreseMaxey #NBAAllStarContest #3PointShooting #PhiladelphiaPride #GoPhils

Idk why everyone's hyped up about Tyrese Maxey makin' it to the 3-Point Contest 🤔... I mean, he's got skills and all but let's be real, this is just another competition where some rich dude will win a bunch of cash 💸. And what's with the drama around Damian Lillard? A torn Achilles? That's gotta hurt 😓. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see if Maxey can keep up with these other elite shooters 👀.
 
I'm low-key hyped for the 3-Point Contest next year 🤩! Tyrese Maxey is going to bring some serious heat and I love how his name is alongside Damian Lillard in this lineup 😎. But honestly, who's gonna take down the champ? 💥 The fact that he'll be facing a injured Lillard adds an extra layer of excitement to the competition. It's not every day you see a player go up against their own teammate 🤝. Can't wait to see what Tyrese brings to the table on Feb 14th 🕰️

It's amazing how he's risen through the ranks and now gets to compete alongside some of the best shooters in the league 🌟. I've been watching his games and he's got some serious skills 💥, but it'll be interesting to see him go up against Damian Lillard (who is still playing despite being injured lol what a competitor! 😂). The fact that Maxey gets to represent Philly on the biggest stage is a huge deal for the city - let's go 76ers 🏀!
