The 5th Annual Max's All Stars Hall of Fame Game took place on July 22nd, 2023 and it was incredible! This event generates a lot of hype every year and the 2023 edition did not disappoint! Team Reef defeated Team Troy by a final score of 93-89. It was another close, hard fought game (albeit a little bit sloppy and chippy at times, but nothing serious). Kevin Pegram finally won the MVP award, which was renamed in honor of Kiwan Smith. Pegram had yet another easy HOF Game double-double, finishing with 17 points/17 rebounds/6 assists/4 blocks for Team Reef. The way this event and the Max's All Stars family has grown over the years has been beautiful to watch. Thank you to all the players, family, and friends for attending. Additional thanks to The Windward School for hosting, The Dynasty League for providing referees/scorekeeping (Kevin Young too)/filming, Wooter Apparel for the new and improved jerseys, and Eye Of Asaad for the amazing photos. After the game, we all had a wonderful time at East End Bar & Grill!
