Vernon Maxwell is a retired American basketball player who played as a shooting guard in the NBA for thirteen seasons from the late 1980s to the early 2000s. Maxwell was a college basketball player for the University of Florida.
He had a significant role in leading the Florida Gators to their very first NCAA tournament appearance. The Denver Nuggets chose him in the second round of the 1988 NBA draft, but he was quickly traded to the San Antonio Spurs. He had his longest and most successful time in the NBA while playing for the Houston Rockets.
Maxwell earned the nickname “Mad Max” from color commentators because of his impressive ability to make clutch three-point shots. This talent was particularly evident during the final game of the 1994 NBA Finals between Houston and New York. Maxwell is one of only nine players in NBA history who have scored 30 points in a single quarter. He achieved this incredible feat during a game against Cleveland on January 26, 1991, where he ended up scoring a total of 51 points.
