How to navigate 76ers’ dysfunction in fantasy

Rotoworld Player News

Andre Drummond

PHI Center #5

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Andre Drummond accounted for six points (2-of-3 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, and two steals in 29 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Rockets.

The good news for fantasy managers who streamed Drummond is that he provided solid rebounds and steals. The bad is that he offers little as a scorer beyond a solid field-goal percentage. Managers seeking a higher streaming upside would be better off with Guerschon Yabusele than Drummond.
Guerschon Yabusele

PHI Power Forward #28

Guerschon Yabusele logged 43 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to Houston, accounting for 22 points (7-of-12 FGs, 4-of-8 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists, one steal, one block, and four 3-pointers.

The “Dancing Bear” was excellent on Wednesday, notching a season-high point total and providing solid value across his stat line. Rostered in 8% of Yahoo leagues, Yabusele’s fantasy value has not been great. However, he’s worth the risk if the 76ers are without Joel Embiid (knee). Philadelphia only plays once more in Week 6 (Saturday vs. Detroit), so the benefits of holding onto Yabusele will be minimal. But it’s worth a thought, which was not the case at the start of the season.
Andre Drummond

PHI Center #5

76ers coach Nick Nurse said he expects to use a starting lineup of Tyrese Maxey, Jared McCain, Kelly Oubre Jr., Guerschon Yabusele, and Andre Drummond for Wednesday’s game against the Rockets.

Already without Paul George and Joel Embiid, the 76ers will not have Caleb Martin (back) for Wednesday’s game, either. As a result, Drummond moves into the starting lineup, which should boost his fantasy value. However, he’s been inconsistent this season in this role, and Alperen Sengun is not an easy matchup.
Caleb Martin

PHI Small Forward #16

Caleb Martin (low back soreness) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Rockets.

Martin only played 13 minutes in the 76ers’ last game, which allowed KJ Martin and Rickey Council IV to see more run. One of those two will likely start with Martin out Wednesday, though neither is on the streaming radar.
Caleb Martin

PHI Small Forward #16

Caleb Martin (low back soreness) is questionable to play against Houston on Wednesday.

Martin missed practice on Tuesday, so there is legitimate concern about his status for Wednesday’s game. He only logged 13 minutes in thier last game, which opened the door for KJ Martin and Ricky Council IV to play larger roles. If Martin remains sidelined, one of those guys will likely get the start, though neither is an appealing streaming option.
Joel Embiid

PHI Center #21

Joel Embiid (left knee injury management), Paul George (left knee bone bruise) and Kyle Lowry (right hip strain) will remain sidelined for Wednesday’s game against Houston.

This will be a third straight absence for Embiid and George, while Lowry will miss his fourth straight game. Guerschon Yabusele and Kelly Oubre should continue to start, with Andre Drummond playing a significant role off the bench. KJ Martin logged 26 minutes in their last game, but he isn’t a player to consider streaming. Until Philly can get these stars back in the lineup, Tyrese Maxey and Jared McCain will be trying to keep the team afloat.
Tyrese Maxey

PHI Point Guard #0

Tyrese Maxey finished Sunday’s loss to the Clippers with 17 points (5-of-13 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, four assists, two steals, and three 3-pointers in 30 minutes in Sunday’s loss to the Clippers.

Maxey heading into Week 6 as a 4th-round player in 9-cat formats isn’t the worst thing in fantasy basketball. The absences of Paul George and Joel Embiid have meant more responsibility for the 76ers point guard, negatively impacting his efficiency. The good news for fantasy managers is that they’ve only taken a hit in field-goal percentage, as Maxey is averaging just 1.6 turnovers per game. The 76ers only play twice in Week 6, beginning with the Rockets on Wednesday.
Kelly Oubre Jr.

PHI Small Forward #9

Kelly Oubre tallied 12 points (6-of-11 FGs), five rebounds, three assists, two steals, and two blocked shots in 31 minutes in Sunday’s loss to the Clippers.

It’s a good thing plus/minus isn’t a scoring category in fantasy basketball because Oubre tossed up a minus 40 on Sunday. The blame does fall solely at his feet, but Sunday’s performance was a microcosm of Philadelphia’s season thus far. With Paul George (knee) sidelined, Oubre should remain in the starting lineup until that changes. Unfortunately, he hasn’t proven to be the most valuable fantasy option, whether starting or coming off the bench.
Jared McCain

PHI Point Guard #20

Jared McCain shot 3-of-15 from the field and 10-of-12 from the foul line in Sunday’s loss to the Clippers, scoring 18 points with four assists and two 3-pointers in 28 minutes.

McCain’s streak of consecutive games with 20 points or more ended on Sunday, with the rookie scoring 18. While the point total was respectable, fantasy managers looking for solid field-goal percentage numbers took a hit in this one. The absences of Paul George and Joel Embiid make McCain a must-roster player, even if there’s a chance he’ll have the occasional bad night.
Guerschon Yabusele

PHI Power Forward #28

Guerschon Yabusele got the start on Friday and contributed 10 points (4-of-12 FGs), 11 rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and two triples against Brooklyn.

With Joel Embiid sidelined for this game, Yabusele got the starting nod in his place, not Andre Drummond (10/6/1/1/1). Brooklyn starts Ben Simmons at center and brings Nic Claxton and Noah Clowney off the bench, which certainly may have been a factor. Embiid has already been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Clippers, which means more minutes for both Yabusele and Drummond. Assuming Drummond starts, he should be the prioritized streaming option, but Yabusele should still play enough to make an impact in the box score.
