Paul George

PHI Forward #8

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Paul George amassed 15 points (5-of-15 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 12 rebounds, five assists and four three-pointers on Friday in the loss to the Bulls.

George struggled with his shooting for a third consecutive game and is now shooting 12-of-39 from the field over that span. The inefficiency led to a below-average scoring performance from the decorated veteran forward. Yet, even without the scoring, George hit the glass hard to earn his first double-double of the season, and also tied a season high in assists to finish with a solid outing from a fantasy basketball perspective. Still, fantasy managers are hoping he can regain his shooting touch soon and return to form as a scorer.
Tyrese Maxey

PHI Guard #0

Tyrese Maxey tallied 27 points (9-of-24 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and five three-pointers on Friday in the loss to the Bulls.

Maxey struggled with his shooting efficiency in Friday’s loss. He started and ended the game cold, while 18 of his points came in the middle two quarters of the game. Although he was inaccurate overall, his five triples were helpful in helping him finish the night with a good fantasy basketball performance, as was his facilitating. Maxey has now shot 12-of-38 from the floor in his last two appearances, which were both Sixers losses. He’ll have a chance to bounce back on Sunday against the Thunder.
Joel Embiid

PHI Center-Forward #21

Joel Embiid tallied 31 points (10-of-19 FGs, 9-of-9 FTs), five rebounds, one assist, one block and two three-pointers in the loss to the Bulls on Friday.

Embiid’s second 30-point game of the season came in a losing effort. The former league MVP had performed well on the offensive end through three quarters, but with just four fourth-quarter points on 1-of-4 shooting, he was one of several Sixers who failed to deliver down the stretch, as they were outscored by the Bulls 17-28 in the frame before losing by seven points. But from a fantasy basketball standpoint, Embiid has shown signs of being the dominant scorer of recent seasons; he’s averaging 29.8 points per game over his last four appearances, and has logged at least 30 minutes in each.
Joel Embiid

PHI Center-Forward #21

Joel Embiid, VJ Edgecombe, Paul George, Tyrese Maxey and Dominick Barlow will start on Friday against the Bulls.

With Barlow and Edgecombe back in the lineup, the Sixers’ opening unit will look different from the one that played in the team’s 114-106 loss to the Nets in its most recent game. Their returns move Jabari Walker and Jared McCain back to the Philadelphia bench, where they’ll join Quentin Grimes to form a stronger reserve unit. The Sixers lost their only other matchup with the Bulls back in November, but will have a chance to avenge it on Friday and inch closer to the fourth spot in the Eastern Conference standings.
Joel Embiid

PHI Center-Forward #21

Joel Embiid (knee) is available for Friday’s game against the Bulls.

Embiid is good to go after missing the 76ers’ last two games due to right knee injury management. His return means that Andre Drummond will come off the bench, where he boasts a lower fantasy ceiling.
Quentin Grimes

PHI Guard #5

Quentin Grimes (illness) is active for Friday’s game against the Bulls.

Grimes is back after a one-game absence. He’ll likely come off the bench and bolster a Sixers reserve unit that features several quality players. Grimes is averaging 15.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game, but has been limited to 11 total points over his last two appearances. He’ll have a chance to put up stronger numbers in Friday’s contest.
Dominick Barlow

PHI Forward #25

Dominick Barlow (illness) is available for Friday’s game against the Bulls.

Barlow is back after sitting out Tuesday’s loss to the Bulls. His return means that Jabari Walker will head back to the bench, and there’s no need to consider rostering him with Barlow back in the lineup.
VJ Edgecombe

PHI Guard #77

VJ Edgecombe (illness) is available for Friday’s game against the Bulls.

Edgecombe was upgraded from questionable to probable earlier Friday, so he was on track to return after sitting out Tuesday’s loss to the Nets. The rookie’s return will push Jared McCain to the bench, where he offers limited fantasy value.
Dominick Barlow

PHI Forward #25

Dominick Barlow (illness) is questionable to play against the Bulls on Friday.

Barlow is expected to suit up after initially being listed as questionable for this game. He missed Tuesday’s game, which allowed Jabari Walker to start in his place. With Barlow expected back, Walker will head back to the bench and lose the limited streaming appeal he had.
Quentin Grimes

PHI Guard #5

Quentin Grimes (illness) is probable to play against the Bulls on Friday.

Grimes is expected to suit up after missing Tuesday’s game against Brooklyn. Justin Edwards and Eric Gordon took on larger roles with Grimes unavailable, but they’ll both likely be pushed back out of the rotation with Grimes expected back.
