VJ Edgecombe

PHI Guard #77

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

VJ Edgecombe added 21 points (7-of-17 FGs, 4-of-7 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists, two steals and three three-pointers in the loss to the Rockets on Thursday.

Edgecombe did many things well against Houston. He was productive from the three-point line as a scorer, but also was the lead table setter for the Sixers’ offense. And on the defensive end, the rookie guard had active hands in coming up with a pair of steals, helping round out a balanced overall performance. Edgecombe has had a very good rookie season and should only become more productive as his career lengthens.
Tyrese Maxey

PHI Guard #0

Tyrese Maxey finished Thursday’s loss to the Rockets with 23 points (9-of-20 FGs), three rebounds, five assists and five three-pointers.

Maxey played 33 minutes against the Rockets and finished as Philadelphia’s leading scorer. The versatile combo guard used the three-point shot to find most of his production on Thursday, while also making some contributions as a passer. While the sixth-year guards’ numbers were solid, they weren’t exceptional — the Sixers will almost certainly need Maxey to perform at a higher level down the stretch of the season, so long as Joel Embiid is out of the lineup recovering from injury.
Paul George

PHI Forward #8

Paul George finished with seven points (2-of-8 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in Thursday’s loss to the Rockets.

George had one of his least impactful games of the season against the Rockets. He failed to convert any of his five three-point attempts and finished with more turnovers than made field goals on the evening. As a result, the veteran forward tied a season-low in points and scored in single digits for just the fifth time all season. The Sixers will need him to bounce back on Friday against the Pacers.
Amen Thompson

HOU Guard-Forward #1

Amen Thompson finished Thursday’s win over the 76ers with 19 points (7-of-14 FGs, 5-of-8 FTs), five rebounds, four assists and three steals.

Thompson logged 42 minutes on Thursday and impacted the game in several areas. He left some meat on the bone as a scorer due to his poor free-throw shooting and inefficiency from beyond the arc, but still finished just under 20 for the game. Thompson didn’t dominate the glass or dial up a ton of assists, but he made contributions in each area, while his three steals helped the Rockets to an eight-game win streak. They’ll face the Timberwolves on Friday.
Jabari Smith

HOU Forward #10

Jabari Smith Jr. totaled 19 points (7-of-15 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), five rebounds, one block and one three-pointer in the win over the 76ers on Thursday.

Smith couldn’t find his rhythm from beyond the arc but still managed to hover around the 20-point mark on Thursday. His scoring came from the charity stripe and mostly inside the paint. The fourth-year forward has played his role well this year and continues to put up some of his best numbers alongside Kevin Durant as a full-time starter. With two games left on the schedule, the Rockets have a chance to extend their eight-game winning streak while trying to land homecourt advantage in the first round of the playoffs.
Kevin Durant

HOU Forward #7

Kevin Durant added 29 points (10-of-18 FGs, 6-of-8 FTs), seven rebounds, five assists and three three-pointers in the win over the 76ers on Thursday.

Durant had another efficient outing on Thursday. He shot the ball well from both inside and outside the arc, and consistently made his way to the free-throw line to add to his total. The veteran wing also established himself as a passer in this game, which is reflected in the team-high assists that he generated against the Sixers. Durant and the Rockets are playing some of their best ball of the season down the stretch. They’ve won eight straight games with two remaining on their schedule.
Tyson Etienne

BKN Guard #10

Tyson Etienne produced 14 points (5-of-17 FGs, 1-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, four assists and three three-pointers in the loss to the Pacers on Thursday.

Etienne struggled from the field on Thursday in his 39 minutes on the floor. He was particularly cold inside the arc, with his efficient three-point shooting being the positive on the evening. Etienne did, however, make contributions on the glass and as a facilitator to help make up for the inefficient scoring. He’ll have a chance to bounce back on Friday against the Bucks.
Ben Saraf

BKN Guard #77

Ben Saraf finished Thursday’s loss to the Pacers with 19 points (8-of-16 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, six assists and one block.

Despite shooting poorly from the three-point line, Saraf still managed to find production against the Pacers. He finished with a handful of boards and tied a team-high in assists, showing off some versatility in his game. Saraf has put together a solid few weeks toward the end of his rookie season that could be a confidence booster heading into the offseason and ultimately his second season. He’s got two games left to close strong.
E.J. Liddell

BKN Forward #9

E.J. Liddell amassed 26 points (10-of-16 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 10 rebounds, one assist and three three-pointers in Thursday’s loss to the Pacers.

Liddell was one of Brooklyn’s bright spots on Thursday. Despite the loss, he drained a few triples en route to his second 20-point performance of the season. His work on the glass led to a team-high in boards, as well, in his 37 minutes on the floor. Liddell has put together three straight double-digit scoring performances after doing so just once in the games prior. He’s trending in the right direction as the season nears its conclusion.
Baylor Scheierman

BOS Guard #55

Baylor Scheierman recorded 20 points (7-of-8 FGs), four rebounds and six three-pointers in Thursday’s loss to the Knicks.

While he wasn’t Joe Mazzulla’s choice to fill in for the injured Jaylen Brown (Achilles), Scheierman still provided key offensive contributions on Thursday. The second-year wing made six of his seven three-point attempts, matching his career-high in points. In fact, Scheierman totaled 21 points over his previous five appearances. Jordan Walsh received the starting nod in New York, and he finished with five points, two rebounds, one assist and one three-pointer. Scheierman has the higher offensive ceiling, and that’s how things played out on Thursday.
