Philadelphia 76ers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) will not play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. The rebounding machine has made only four appearances in January and will sit out a third consecutive game. Since Drummond did not practice on Monday, it seems unlikely that he will return for the second leg of a back-to-back on Wednesday versus the Sacramento Kings. Adem Bona will continue to act as the backup center behind Guerschon Yabusele (knee), who is considered probable for the game. Bona has looked quite raw on the court and doesn't currently have fantasy value.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George (finger) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The nine-time All-Star hurt his left pinky finger during Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls and was unable to practice on Monday. Tuesday marks the beginning of a back-to-back for Philadelphia, so the chances seem high that George will sit out multiple games. Justin Edwards and Ricky Council IV are looking at extra work with George out. However, these players have not provided consistent fantasy value.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will sit out the upcoming back-to-back set. He has already been officially ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers, and Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports that Embiid will also miss Wednesday's matchup against the Sacramento Kings. The former MVP last played on Jan. 4 and has missed 11 games since. With Andre Drummond (toe) also struggling to remain in the lineup, the 76ers have relied heavily on Guerschon Yabusele (knee) at center. Yabusele is dealing with swelling in his right knee but is expected to play in Tuesday's game.

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) will sit out a second consecutive game on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls. Drummond is battling a toe injury and has been in and out of the lineup recently. With Joel Embiid (knee) also on the shelf, Guerschon Yabusele will continue to do the heavy lifting at the center position, with Adem Bona logging time as his backup. Yabusele has averaged 10.5 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in a starting role this season.

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) started in the 35-point loss to the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday and will head right back to the sidelines on Friday. The Sixers listed him with toe injury management which is what kept him out for a stretch of six games before playing two of the last three. With Joel Embiid (knee) remaining sidelined as well, Guerschon Yabusele remains the best streaming option as he's averaged 10.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.6 threes per game. Adem Bona would only be an option in very deep leagues.
