Las Vegas Raiders star edge rusher Maxx Crosby is having quite an offseason, as he awaits for the 2025 NFL campaign to arrive.
Back in March, the 27-year-old pass rusher inked a massive three-year contract extension worth $106.5 million with the Raiders.
Given his body of work with Las Vegas, it’s fair to say that he deserves such a deal. In the 2024 season alone, he had 7.5 sacks and 45 combined tackles to go with 20 quarterback hits and five passes defended in 12 games. The Raiders won just four games, but Crosby was a clear bright spot on the team.
Las Vegas Raiders’ Crosby sends message to Indiana star
While football is still his No. 1 priority, that’s not stopping Crosby from enjoying hoops as a spectator. And on Tuesday night, Crosby seemingly had a blast watching Game 4 of the 2025 NBA Eastern Conference finals series between the Indiana Pacers and the New York Knicks in Indianapolis.
Crosby was particularly in awe of the performance by Pacers star point guard Tyrese Haliburton, who’s got his team just a win away from clinching a spot in the 2025 NBA Finals.
“Ice Cold. 🧊” Crosby wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter), while tagging Haliburton’s X account.

The former Iowa State Cyclones star put together an all-time performance in Game 4, racking up 32 points, 15 assists and 12 rebounds with four steals while shooting 11-for-23 from the field and 5-for-12 from deep in 38 minutes. He also did not commit a turnover.
That was historic stat line that no other player in the history of the NBA had ever put together before in the playoffs or in the regular season, according to OptaSTATS.
