What’s your perspective on:

Is Tyrese Maxey's relationship with Myra Gordon the NBA's next power couple to watch?

Have an interesting take?

She was already a high school basketball star, in her junior year. Myra Gordon averaged 27.3 points per game, breaking more school records. Her relentless offensive play made her one of the top recruits in the country. By the end of her high school career, she had scored 2,405 points, ranking second in her school’s history.

For college, she went on to play for the Alabama Crimson Tide. She had played in two positions as a guard and forward, due to which she made an immediate impact. Her debut season saw her play a key role in the team’s success, including a standout performance in a game against Vanderbilt. However, as she progressed through college, her role diminished. Do you know in her junior year, she played in 32 games, with her contributions totaling 43 points, 74 rebounds, and 16 steals?

The Gordon family is no stranger to basketball. Her older sister, Alexis, played professionally in the WNBA, and her boyfriend, Wendell Moore, now plays for the Pistons. Going back to Myra Gordon’s love life, however, she was once linked to an NFL star.

Did Myra Gordon date Bryce Young?

The honest answer is- we don’t know for sure. Myra Gordon’s name was once tied to Bryce Young, but things have drastically shifted in the last 2-3 months. Rumors of their relationship began circulating when they were spotted together at events. But when Gordon was recently seen with Maxey at the Philadelphia Eagles vs. Atlanta Falcons game. Fans were quick to notice, especially when the power couple appeared on the jumbotron, smiling and cheering. Was there more to this than just a coincidence?

Before this, however, Myra’s connection with Bryce seemed quite real. They had shared moments publicly, leading many to believe they were a thing. However, when Young lost the starting quarterback job with the Carolina Panthers, this seems to have added a complicated layer. His struggle with offensive performances on the field only intensified the media’s focus on his personal life.

Then, an Instagram story on Tyrese Maxey’s birthday from Myra Gordon surfaced, causing more of a stir. “Happy birthday to my bestfriend. it has been a blessing to watch you grow up into such an amazing man, and i can’t explain how lucky i am to have you. i love you to infinity,” she wrote, which is quite clear that the hoops duo were close.

Some of Young’s fans, voiced their discontent, judging her for moving on. But can anyone judge her without knowing the true details? The situation grew tense, as public attention lingered. Still, the timing just seemed so confusing—was it all just a coincidence?

Tyrese Maxey and Myra Gordon might have crossed paths long before the rumors about Bryce Young for all you know. Perhaps their bond could’ve started in private, long before the NFL connection came into play. Or is this just an inevitable twist of fate? Clarity is awaited from either of the three individuals about the confusing timelines.
