De’Anthony Melton's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) has been ruled out for the rest of Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Melton missed nearly a month of action due to a back issue. Now, he's sidelined again after only nine minutes during Tuesday's game. Kyle Lowry is still under a minutes restriction. That means, Cameron Payne should see an increased role off the bench with Melton being unable to finish this contest. Despite the increased role, Payne won't be worth a look in most fantasy formats.

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Melton has been sidelined since January 12, but will make his return to the court here. The expectation is that Melton is going to be under a minutes restriction during his first game back. He won't be worth looking at as a possible streaming option until he gets back up to full speed.

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) won't play on Thursday versus the Knicks. However, the 25-year-old will return to the court on Friday against the Cavaliers. Melton has been sidelined for over a month because of a back issue, so there's a good chance he'll be limited in his first game back. With Kyle Lowry also recently signing with the team, fantasy managers may want to consider other options before adding Melton to the starting lineup, at least until it's clear what his role will be with a reconfigured roster.

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) is out for Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. The Sixers ruled out Melton on Wednesday evening, but the 25-year-old guard put in a full practice and will aim to return on Friday versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. Kelly Oubre Jr. should remain rostered in fantasy basketball, but he'll take on a Knicks squad that's surrendering the third-fewest points per game (109.9) in the NBA during the 2023-24 campaign.

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) will remain out on Wednesday against Miami. Melton was back in practice on Tuesday, but the team won't be able to count on his services for a 17th consecutive game. Philadelphia will be off until Feb. 22 following Wednesday's game, so there's a strong chance this is the final contest Melton misses. His return to practice certainly suggests that the versatile guard isn't far from being game-ready again. The likes of Buddy Hield and Kelly Oubre Jr. will be in for busy nights again on Wednesday without Melton.
