76ers star Tyrese Maxey surprised a group of kids with a shopping spree in Philadelphia on Tuesday.
Maxey partnered with the store SNIPES to give ten kids $500 to shop the entire store located on Cottman Avenue for an hour starting at 3 p.m.
"I really do appreciate the city of Philadelphia," Maxey said to reporters at the event.
The South Philadelphia-based organization Unity in the Community was behind Tuesday's event as Maxey helped each kid shop and fill up their bags with products.
