Embiid has been available for Philadelphia’s last four games, most recently logging 40 minutes in Monday’s overtime loss to the Nuggets. While Wednesday’s game is not part of a back-to-back, the 76ers may view it as an opportunity to get their 7-footer a little time off. If Embiid sits, more playing time will be available to Adem Bona, and Andre Drummond may re-enter the rotation after picking up a DNP-CD on Monday.

Edgecombe had a rough first half shooting the ball, and he entered the break scoreless. However, he came alive after that and nearly recorded a triple-double. The poor first half resulted in a subpar field goal percentage for him, but the counting stats were incredibly strong from him. Edgecombe has found fantasy success while playing alongside ball-dominant stars, which should allow him to be productive for the rest of the season.

Though availability has been an issue, Embiid has been productive when available this season. Recently, he’s been available, and the minutes have increased as well. He has played in four straight games, his longest stretch of the season. He’s also played at least 33 minutes in each, which is more than he has played in any other game this year. He played a season-high 40 minutes in this game, which led to his third double-double in four games. Don’t expect to see him play back-to-backs, but Embiid is in the midst of a strong stretch right now.

Maxey remained on a tear in this game, though it wasn’t enough for the 76ers to continue their win streak. This was the sixth straight game that Maxey scored a least 25 points, and there have been plenty of stats in other categories along the way. Maxey has been one of the best players in fantasy basketball this season, and that hasn’t slowed down with despite the 76ers getting healthy. This is Maxey’s team, and he’ll continue to shine.

Embiid was initially listed as probable, and now he has officially been cleared to suit up. This will be the fourth straight game that he has suited up for, which is his longest availability stretch of the season. He should feast on the Nuggets, who are without Nikola Jokic and Jonas Valanciunas.

After a quiet first three quarters, Wells got hot in the fourth, shooting 5-of-8 from the field and scoring 15 points. For the sake of fantasy managers, it would have been nice to get a little more from Wells earlier in the game. With Ja Morant out and Cedric Coward leaving with an ankle injury, there was more room for the second-year wing to get shots. For his fantasy value to improve, Wells will need to be more aggressive offensively when the Grizzlies are at or near full strength.

After playing 20 minutes off the bench in Friday’s loss to the Lakers, Landale received the starting nod on Sunday, replacing Christian Koloko. The 30-year-old center responded with his fourth double-double of the season. However, while Landale put up a solid effort on Sunday, his production still isn’t at the point where he has to be streamed, especially with Santi Aldama still available in more than half of Yahoo! leagues. As for Koloko, he played 13 minutes on Sunday, finishing with six points, two rebounds and two steals.

While Spencer has usually been a reliable option for deep-league fantasy managers this season, Sunday was not one of those nights. The positive was that he dished out a team-high nine assists. Unfortunately, Spencer could not find his shot. He missed all five of his three-point attempts and was 1-of-10 from the field overall. However, if Ja Morant (calf) remains out, there should be another start for Spencer on Tuesday against the Spurs.
MEM • Power Forward • #7

Despite coming off the bench, Aldama continues to provide reliable fantasy value. Over the past two weeks, the Grizzlies forward has been a seventh-round player in eight-cat formats. Aldama didn’t have the best night shooting the basketball, but the rebounds and assists compensated for that. The Grizzlies play four games in Week 12, and he’ll be worth rostering for the foreseeable future, especially with Zach Edey (ankle) sidelined.

Due to a right calf contusion, Morant will miss Sunday’s rematch after logging 31 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Lakers.

Spencer is worth streaming in 12-team leagues; he should already be rostered in 14-team leagues.

Watford has been out since suffering a strained adductor during a November 25 game against the Magic. However, with 76ers head coach Nick Nurse saying on Saturday that he’s ready to play 5-on-5 in practice, Watford may not have to wait much longer to resume playing in games.

Oubre will miss another game, but a return to action may not be far away. Ahead of Saturday’s win over the Knicks, 76ers head coach Nick Nurse said that Oubre and Trendon Watford (adductor) are ready to play 5-on-5 in practice. For most players, that tends to be one of the final thresholds to cross before being cleared to play in games.

While the 76ers continue to list Embiid on injury reports, he has been available for six of the team’s last seven games.

George wasn’t a prolific scorer in Saturday’s victory, but he hit two three-pointers early in the third quarter that would help Philadelphia tighten its grip on the game. PG shot the ball relatively well and provided solid value in rebounds, assists, steals and three-pointers. For the season, George is providing top-75 per-game value in eight-cat formats, exceeding his Yahoo! ADP (83). The 76ers open a four-game Week 12 on Monday against the Nuggets.

The Knicks have failed to slow down Philadelphia’s backcourt of Edgecombe and Tyrese Maxey in their two meetings, with the tandem combining for 62 points on Saturday. The rookie guard’s athleticism was an issue on both ends, with his ability to get whatever shot he wanted and slow down the Knicks defensively. The good news for Edgecombe managers is that Philadelphia plays four games in Week 12, starting with Denver on Monday.

Embiid had himself a night in New York, recording his third double-double of the season and second in his last three appearances. Due to the loss of athleticism, he’s unlikely to offer much fantasy value as a shot-blocker, but the offensive tools remain. Not only does a healthy Embiid benefit fantasy managers, but he makes the 76ers a legitimate factor in the East. The 76ers play four games in Week 12.

The 76ers and Knicks have met twice this season, and New York has failed to find an answer for Maxey in both meetings. The 76ers point guard ends Week 11 on a heater, having scored at least 34 points in three consecutive games. Maxey has ranked among the most valuable players in fantasy basketball regardless of league format, and that shouldn’t change anytime soon. Philadelphia plays four games in Week 12, starting with the Nuggets on Monday.

Back in the rotation after sitting out Tuesday’s overtime loss to the 76ers, Caldwell-Pope enjoyed one of his best games of the season. A double-digit scorer in six of his last seven appearances, the veteran guard recorded his first 20-point game of the season on Friday. All that Caldwell-Pope’s stat line lacked was a blocked shot. However, despite how well he played against one of his former teams, KCP is not worth the risk in most leagues. Unless there’s a dire need for a “Hail Mary” on Sunday, there’s no need to pick him up ahead of the rematch with the Lakers to end Week 11.

While he didn’t offer great value as a scorer, Morant’s 11 assists were the most he’s had in a game since November 7 (13 vs. Dallas). Since returning from injury on December 26, the Grizzlies’ point guard has offered fifth-round per-game value in eight-cat formats. Morant certainly has the potential to be more productive, but many fantasy managers likely remain concerned due to the injury risk. The Grizzlies face the Lakers again on Sunday to end Week 11.

The good news for fantasy managers is that Jackson scored 25 points, making it four of the last five games that he’s scored at least 21 points. The bad news is that he didn’t do much else. Jackson landed in early foul trouble, picking up four before halftime. That affected how he went about his business, as evidenced by the lack of blocked shots. While Jackson has never been an excellent rebounder, grabbing just one is poor. Hopefully, he can bring more to the table in Sunday’s rematch to end Week 11.

Less than a year after he was dealt from Dallas to Philadelphia, Grimes hit five three-pointers on a night when the player he was traded for (Caleb Martin) played four minutes.

Embiid has now played at least 30 minutes in each of his last seven appearances.

Back in his hometown, Maxey recorded his eighth career 30-point, 10-assist game and second in as many appearances.

Even with the availability concerns of Joel Embiid and Paul George (14/7/2/1), the 76ers have managed to stay afloat, thanks in part to Maxey. Now, with those two healthy, the 76ers appear poised to be a factor in the East.

Edgecombe came up big late in this game and contributed 13 points in the fourth quarter.

It ended up being a well-rounded, strong performance for Edgecombe, though he did most of his work as a scorer late.

The 25-year-old guard finished just shy of another 30-point performance despite going just 2-of-7 from three-point range.
