NBC SportsESPN's Shams Charania reported that Tyrese Maxey (finger) is out for the rest of the season.

Maxey has not appeared in a game since March 3. While he was initially dealing with back and finger injuries, the latter is why the 76ers guard will not play again this season. According to Charania, Maxey is still experiencing discomfort in his finger and needs further treatment. What was not reported is the possibility of Maxey undergoing offseason surgery to address the issue. Maxey exceeded his Yahoo! ADP (26) in eight- and nine-cat formats, appearing in 52 games. However, the 76ers rarely had their "big three" on the court together, as Joel Embiid and Paul George were also limited due to injuries. This is the first season in which Maxey has failed to play at least 60 games, so fantasy managers should not be too concerned heading into drafts in the fall.
