Sixers' Tyrese Maxey works out with NBA champ Kentavious Caldwell-Pope

Philadelphia 76ers star Tyrese Maxey is a maniacal worker as he is somebody who is always going to be in the gym working on his game and continuing to take steps forward as a player. He took steps forward as a leader in 2024-25 while also attacking against waves of defenders, and now, he is looking to take another step. Maxey was in the gym working with trainer Chris Johnson while working alongside 2-time NBA champion, and current Memphis Grizzlies guard, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. The 12-year veteran out of Georgia has won titles with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020 and the Denver Nuggets in 2023. Maxey and Caldwell-Pope put in some work in the gym on a variety of jump shots as the young All-Star continues to soak up any knowledge he can from the veterans in this league. Maxey was limited to only 52 games due to a variety of injuries in what was a lost season for Philadelphia. Now, the Sixers will be looking for him to bounce back next to Joel Embiid and Paul George in order to bounce back from a miserable 24-58 season that was decimated by injuries and things they can't control.

Yankees Predicted to Trade Trent Grisham to Phillies in 3-Team Blockbuster

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Yankees are headed toward the trade deadline with some clear needs to fill if they want to reignite hope of returning to the World Series. After giving up their lead in the division to the Toronto Blue Jays shortly before the All-Star break, the team has seemed light in several key areas, including the rotation, bullpen and around the diamond. "I would import a starter, some relievers, because our bullpen is taxed and some injuries. And an infielder, if possible," Yankees general manager Brian Cashman explained recently, according to Phillip Martinez of SNY. "That's a long list." To try and address all of those needs, the Yankees might have to get creative and could have to trade away some big-league ready talent. That's the expectation for CBS Sports' Mike Axisa, who predicted Cashman would deal outfielder Trent Grisham to the Philadelphia Phillies, who would in turn send some prospects to the Minnesota Twins to bring infielder Willi Castro to the Yankees.

(Photo by) Chambers/Getty "The Phillies and Yankees don't match up well for an outfielder-for-third baseman trade, which is where the Twins come in," Axisa wrote. "Rental Grisham for rental Castro makes no sense for Minnesota. If they're selling, they wont' want a rental. They'll want controllable young players, so a three-time trade in which Grisham goes to Philadelphia, Phillies prospects go to Minnesota, and Castro goes to the Yankees could be in the cards." On paper, this trade projection may be complicated but it does make sense for each participant. Castro would mark a significant third base upgrade over Oswald Peraza for the Yankees, as he's slashing .257/.347/.431. And Grisham would be a defensive and offensive boost for the Phillies, who haven't gotten much production out of the trio of Johan Rojas, Brandon Marsh and Max Kepler. Meanwhile, the Yankees can replace Grisham's at-bats with Cody Bellinger, Jasson Dominguez and Aaron Judge in the outfield. Though it's convoluted, this prediction could be an effective way to turn the Yankees' outfield surplus into a much-needed infield boost.

Rangers Announce Disappointing Joc Pederson Update

Rangers Announce Disappointing Joc Pederson Update originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Veteran designated hitter Joc Pederson enters his 12th major-league season, and his first with the Texas Rangers. Pederson originally broke into the majors with the Los Angeles Dodgers, making the first of his two All-Star appearances as a member of the organization. He spent seven seasons in Los Angeles before becoming an MLB journeyman. This past offseason, Pederson signed a two-year, $37 million contract with the Rangers following an impressive 2024 with the Arizona Diamondbacks. His consistent bat and veteran presence were staples of Arizona's lineup last year. In 132 games for the Diamondbacks in 2024, the 33-year-old batted .275 with 23 home runs and posted a career-high .908 OPS, performances that earned him the opportunity to become Texas's everyday designated hitter. The 2025 season has been a disaster for Pederson. He struggled to find his rhythm at the plate before suffering a right-hand fracture after being hit by a pitch in late May, landing on the 10-day injured list. While initial reports suggested he might return before the All-Star break, the Rangers recently announced his recovery timeline has been pushed back. Pederson is now projected to resume batting practice in two to three weeks. Prior to the injury, Pederson appeared in 46 games, but his offensive performance dipped sharply. His OPS slumped to a career-low .507, and he managed just two home runs, uncharacteristic numbers for the left-handed slugger. Texas will need Pederson to rebound down the stretch. The Rangers sit at 45-48, fourth in the AL West, enduring a disappointing season just two years removed from their World Series championship in 2023. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 11, 2025, where it first appeared.
