Kelly

Oubre Jr.

While Saturday’s game will be the second straight missed by Lowry, the 76ers have been without Oubre since March 12. For Philadelphia, these final games are about improving their draft lottery odds, as the 76ers’ first-round pick is only top-6 protected. Expect plenty of Quentin Grimes and Justin Edwards as Philadelphia plays out the remainder of its schedule.

Oubre continues to deal with a knee injury that will keep him out for an 11th straight game. Lowry will also be out Thursday against the Bucks as he continues to manage a hip injury. Justin Edwards will continue to have a significant role with Oubre out.

Grimes has been a featured player in Philly’s offense for a while now but has been rested as the team tries to pile up enough losses to keep their draft pick. Oubre, on the other hand, will miss his 10th straight game on Sunday. Justin Edwards appears set to have a prominent role on Sunday after at least 17 points in his previous seven games.

Walker missed four games with a concussion, then he exited early after playing 11 minutes in his return and has missed Philadelphia’s last three games. It appears that he is on track to play against Miami on Saturday, which would likely take away minutes from Ricky Council IV. It is also worth noting that Tyrese Maxey, Kelly Oubre Jr. and Andre Drummond were all partial participants in practice, but there still isn’t a timeline for their return. At this point, is anyone expecting them to play again this season? Philly is in a tight race at the top of the lottery, and they’re trying to stay in the top six to avoid their pick going to the Thunder. Playing anyone that is going to help them win games would be counterproductive.

Maxey is set to miss his 12th game in a row and there’s no end in sight for his string of absences. Oubre is set to miss his seventh game in a row with a knee injury. Justin Edwards should remain in the starting lineup while Ricky Council IV plays a significant role off the bench.

This will be a fifth-straight absence for Oubre Jr., which means that Justin Edwards will remain in the starting lineup once again. Ricky Council IV will also play a significant role off the bench.

Oubre is set to miss his fourth-straight game with a knee injury. Ricky Council IV should continue to start in his absence while Jalen Hood-Schifino sees additional minutes off the bench.

Oubre has missed Philadelphia’s last three games with a knee injury and appears likely to miss Wednesday’s game as well. Ricky Council IV has replaced him in the starting lineup, and deep-league managers should not overlook Jalen Hood-Schifino coming off the bench.

No surprises here for the tanking Sixers. Philly will be missing all of the starters they opened the season with, including role players like Lonnie Walker IV. Jared Butler, Ricky Council IV and Quentin Grimes will continue to pick up the slack with Maxey and Oubre Jr. sidelined.

Oubre will miss a second straight game with a knee injury, meaning more playing time for Justin Edwards and Ricky Council IV. With the 76ers light on available bodies, both will be worthy of deep-leagues streaming consideration for Sunday night.
