Embiid did not play in Tuesday’s win over the Celtics due to a sore right knee. It’s important to note that it was the left knee that gave him trouble in the past, with the former MVP undergoing another procedure during the offseason. Philadelphia doesn’t play again until Friday in Detroit, but that may not be enough time for Embiid to return to full strength. Andre Drummond has been the replacement in the starting lineup with Adem Bona serving as his backup.

George is making progress in his recovery from offseason knee surgery, but he remains without a concrete return timeline. He’ll be re-evaluated later this week, with Charania reporting that team doctors want George to further strengthen his left quad muscle to help support his left knee. So, nothing has really changed for those who have him rostered. Continue to stash him in an IL+ slot and hold out hope that a return isn’t too far away. Trendon Watford struggled in Tuesday’s win over the Celtics but should remain the starting power forward for now.

Edwards played a pivotal role for Philadelphia down the home stretch in this one, knocking down 5-of-6 three-point attempts, including a pair down the home stretch to help erase an eight-point deficit over the final six minutes. His only miss of the night set up teammate Kelly Oubre Jr.’s go-ahead layup with just 8.7 second left in the contest. The 21-year-old saw a season-high 26 minutes in this one with franchise cornerstone Joel Embiid out with right knee soreness and Jared McCain limited to just six minutes while dealing with thumb and knee issues. The 76ers are back in action on Friday evening with a road tilt against the Pistons and a red-hot Cade Cunningham.

Maxey continues to be one of the most impactful scorers in the fantasy landscape, eclipsing the 20-point mark in 11consecutive contests to open the season. The 25-year-old rising star didn’t exactly light it up in this one, but he came alive in the second half to help spark a late comeback effort. He dished out nine assists to finish just shy of his third double-double performance of the year.

Drummond exploited Boston’s lack of frontcourt size to close out the first half with back-to-back buckets in the paint to finish with 10 points as Philadelphia raced out to a 51-41 lead. The 14-year-veteran drew the starting assignment with Joel Embiid out with right knee soreness. He and fellow big man Adem Bona figure to see an uptick in minutes while Embiid is sidelined to undergo further evaluation and testing to determine the severity of the issue.

Injured during the third quarter of Saturday’s loss to Cleveland, Giddey did not play in Monday’s loss to San Antonio. His spot in the starting lineup was filled by Kevin Huerter, who tallied 23 points, five rebounds, five assists, one block and four three-pointers. He’s worth streaming if Giddey remains out, while managers in deeper leagues should also consider Ayo Dosunmu.

Embiid wasn’t initially on the injury report, and this isn’t a back-to-back, which makes this update scary. Hopefully it’s just an opportunity for them to get him some extra rest since they only have one more game left this week. Andre Drummond should be in line for another start, with Adem Bona filling out the reserve minutes.

Dosunmu recorded his third 20-point game of the season on Monday, helping pick up the slack offensively on a night when the Bulls did not have Josh Giddey (ankle). The former second-round pick may be rostered in less than 20 percent of Yahoo! leagues, but he is providing top-100 value in nine-cat formats. Dosunmu’s streaming value is dictated by the availability of Josh Giddey, who did not play on Monday due to a sprained ankle. If Giddey can’t play against the Pistons on Wednesday, don’t hesitate to consider Dosunmu in deep leagues, even if he doesn’t start.

Due to Coby White’s calf injury, Jones has been a starter since the beginning of the season. However, Josh Giddey joining White on the sideline for Monday’s game gave Jones more room to operate with the ball in his hands. Not only did he record seven assists, but the point guard notched his first 20-point game of the season. Jones has scored 15 points or more in four of his last five games and is ranked within the top-50 in nine-cat formats. Rostered in 31 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he’s worth a look while the Bulls are without their expected starting backcourt.

With Josh Giddey (ankle) unavailable, Huerter made his first start of the season on Monday. And “Red Velvet” was excellent, shooting over 50 percent from the field and finishing a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Rostered in 14 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Huerter is providing seventh-round value in nine-cat formats. He isn’t a must-roster player when the Bulls are whole, but with Giddey and Coby White out, Huerter is a worthwhile streamer.

Broome remains out for another game with a sprained right ankle. His absence does not impact fantasy basketball, as the rookie has not been in the 76ers’ rotation. However, the injury keeps Broome from getting on-court practice reps, either with the 76ers or the team’s G League affiliate.

Embiid is back after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Pistons, which was Philadelphia’s second game in as many nights.

Grimes has reached double figures in all ten games he’s played this season, providing the 76ers with consistent offense off the bench. However, he’s also been effective in the rebound and assist categories, which is why he’s ranked safely within the top-100 going into Week 4. There’s the question of what will happen once Paul George is healthy enough to play and Jared McCain (zero points and one assist in nine minutes) isn’t under a minutes restriction. However, Grimes should not take too big a hit once the 76ers’ rotation is at full strength, given his productivity.

With Joel Embiid unavailable for injury management reasons, Drummond was tabbed to fill the void in the starting lineup on Sunday. And the veteran center came through with a performance on par with what many fantasy managers expected of Drummond when he first joined the 76ers. He recorded a complete stat line on Sunday, including his first game this season with multiple three-pointers. Adem Bona, who was Embiid’s replacement in past games, played 12 minutes off the bench, finishing with two points, four rebounds, one steal and three blocks. Unfortunately, neither will be of much value during Week 4, as the 76ers play just two games.

Maxey had a chance to tie Sunday’s game and force overtime, but his three-point attempt at the end of a hectic possession hit the front iron just before time expired. However, fantasy managers will be more focused on Maxey’s production, as the 76ers guard has scored 30 or more points in six games this season. While we’re used to seeing the likes of Nikola Jokić and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander atop the fantasy rankings, Maxey finds himself in similar company going into Week 4. The 76ers play only two games, but that’s an issue that affects the “supporting cast” more than Maxey.

The 76ers are without Joel Embiid for Sunday’s game, as it’s the second game of a back-to-back. He’ll be replaced in the lineup by Drummond, who has outperformed Adem Bona on most nights. Bona will be in the rotation, but his streaming value is not as high when asked to come off the bench.

Williams recently sprained a finger on his left hand, but he’s a right-handed shooter, and the probable tag suggests he’ll be cleared to play on Monday. If so, his role won’t change much, even if Josh Giddey (ankle) is downgraded from questionable to out.

Giddey sprained his right ankle during the second half of Saturday’s loss to the Cavaliers while attempting to guard De’Andre Hunter on the perimeter.

Smith provided a spark off the bench for Chicago as a certifiable one-man wrecking crew, knocking down all four three-point attempts and grabbing double-digit rebounds to notch a double-double in less than 20 minutes. That’ll work. The 25-year-old sharp-shooting big man is averaging 12 points and six rebounds across four games over the past week, which gives him some appeal for fantasy purposes in deeper leagues.

Embiid’s first game of the season was rough, but since then, he has scored at least 20 points in every game he has played in, despite the minutes restriction. He set a new season-high for scoring in this one, which helped the 76ers snap a two-game losing streak. Embiid’s 26 minutes also matched his season-high. It’s great to see him progressing, but he still isn’t ready to play back-to-backs; expect him to be listed as out against the Pistons on Sunday, which will allow Adem Bona to start and Andre Drummond to play extra minutes off the bench.

Per usual, Maxey was unstoppable on the offensive end and had a big night in the scoring department. Maxey has scored at least 30 points in five of the 76ers’ nine games this season and has at least 25 points in all of them. Maxey is averaging 33.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, 8.3 assists, 1.1 steals, 1.1 blocks and 4.1 three-pointers per game this season and has certainly been worth his second-round ADP to this point.

Watford had been playing well off the bench recently, so 76ers coach Nick Nurse gave him the starting nod over Jabari Walker. Watford took full advantage of the opportunity, recording the first triple-double of his career. It would be surprising if Nurse didn’t leave Watford in that role, at least until Paul George returns to the lineup. However, if Watford continues to play this well, he’ll certainly have a case to remain a starter over Kelly Oubre. Watford is currently rostered in just six percent of Yahoo! leagues.

Dosunmu missed Tuesday’s game against the 76ers with a quad injury. The 25-year-old shooting guard returned Friday night against the Bucks and had seven points and three assists in 20 minutes.

While many expected that Giddey merely scratched the surface of what he’s capable of in Chicago last season, his start to the 2025-26 campaign has exceeded expectations.

Giddey will look to get Chicago back into the win column when they visit the Cavaliers on Saturday.

Valued mainly for his assist production and low turnover numbers, Jones has been more valuable than anticipated as a scorer.

However, that will change once White is cleared to play.

Based on his Yahoo! ADP, Buzelis is expected by many fantasy managers to be a top-100 player this season. Thus far, he’s met those expectations, most recently finishing Friday’s defeat with a complete stat line. Buzelis recorded his third 20-point game of the season, two shy of his total during the 2024-25 campaign. Buzelis is already rostered in 90 percent of Yahoo! leagues, so he isn’t going to be found on many waiver wires. Chicago visits Cleveland on Saturday to complete its Week 3 slate.

Maxey tried to keep this one close, but simply didn’t have enough help from his teammates.
