Tyrese Maxey’s New Deal with New Balance Includes a Signature Sneaker in 2026 ✍️

At the start of the decade, New Balance was not top of mind when it came to performance basketball. Throughout the 2020s, they’ve expanded their in-line performance lineup and have continued to drop new silhouettes for the brand’s only signature athlete (before today), Kawhi Leonard, earning a place in the minds of hoopers both at the amateur and professional level. Joining Kawhi as the second signature athlete on New Balance’s roster is Philadelphia 76ers star Tyrese Maxey.
