Philadelphia 76ers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Shams Charania of ESPN reports that the Dallas Mavericks traded guard/forwardQuentin Grimes and Philadelphia's 2025 second-round pick back to the 76ers for guard/forwardCaleb Martin (hip) on Tuesday, sources tell ESPN. Grimes won't be able to compete against his former team on Tuesday as he waits for the trade to finalize. However, he could be cleared to make his Sixers debut against the Heat on Wednesday. The 24-year-old is averaging 10.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists across 47 games this season. He will likely see an expanded role with his new team and could have a sizable impact in fantasy immediately.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Eric Gordon (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran sharpshooter might be out for a second consecutive game due to knee soreness. Before getting hurt, Gordon had fought out a starting role for himself. Ricky Council IV stepped in for him on Sunday against the Boston Celtics and put together a strong line with 11 points, seven rebounds, eight assists, and two steals. He will be an option for fantasy managers again on Tuesday if Gordon isn't ready to return.

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Mavericks. The left toe issue has given the veteran a lot of issues over the last month. But the Sixers could use him back on the floor, especially with the team dealing with so many injuries. With Joel Embiid (knee) questionable, Drummond has a chance to see more minutes against Dallas. But if Embiid and Drummond remain on the shelf, Guerschon Yabusele, amassing 49 points and 13 rebounds in the last two games, will presumably remain in the middle. Adem Bona would likely stay involved, although he doesn't do much outside of his contributions on the glass.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George (finger) won't play on Tuesday against the Mavericks. The 34-year-old has been banged up all season for various reasons. However, he's missed the last four games because of a strained left finger. Joel Embiid (knee), Andre Drummond (toe), Eric Gordon (knee), and Caleb Martin (hip) are all questionable, so Tyrese Maxey, coming off a 34-point outing in Sunday's loss to Boston, may be tasked with taking on more of the scoring load once again. Kelly Oubre Jr., Ricky Council IV, and Guerschon Yabusele may also be in line for added production, depending on who is ruled out.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Dallas Mavericks. Embiid hasn't been on the court in a month, most recently suiting up for the January 4 game against the Brooklyn Nets. While there's still a chance he'll miss another contest, it seems he's moving in a favorable direction, so fantasy managers may have him back sometime soon. With Andre Drummond (toe) questionable, Guerschon Yabusele may draw the start once again. Yabusele has been on a roll of late, amassing 49 points and 13 rebounds in the last two games.
