How to remove max sub query to make query optimisation in SQL query

I have 100 stored procedures calling same like below max query.

select * 
from xyz d
inner join (select max(Id) AS Id, personId 
            from xyz (NOLOCK) 
            where category = 1
            group by personId) dm on d.Id = dm.Id
