Ben Simmons Posts Double-Double With Assists And Rebounds
Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons stayed passive at the offensive end on Monday, scoring just seven points against Denver on 3-for-8 shooting, but he still finished the game with a double-double. Simmons had double-digit assists for the seventh time in the last eight games, finishing with 11 assists, and he grabbed 13 rebounds. He […]
Joel Embiid Bags Double-Double Versus Denver
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid collected a double-double from Monday's tilt with Denver, finishing with 20 points and 13 rebounds while shooting 6-for-12 from the floor and 8-for-10 from the line. Every Sixers game these days seems to end up as a blowout, and Embiid keeps playing limited minutes because of that. He hasn't reached […]
Markelle Fultz Solid In His Return
Philadelphia 76ers point guard Markelle Fultz (shoulder) made his return Monday night against the Nuggets and looked solid, as he scored 10 points in 14 minutes off the bench with eight assists and four rebounds. He did post an ugly-looking field goal percentage, shooting 5-for-13 (38.5 percent), but that was because he got blocked multiple […]

Nerlens Noel: The Nerlen Wall
Two summers ago, it was a wild free agency ride for big men in the league. Players like Timofey Mozgov and Luol Deng made out like bandits on notorious contracts (good for them, by the way!). The summer following, teams had to compensate for the overpay, and big man money was harder to come by. […]

Dario Saric Notches Double-Double In Blowout Win
Philadelphia 76ers forward Dario Saric posted a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds against the Orlando Magic Thursday.

Dario Saric Gets Going Again On Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers forward Dario Saric regained his shooting touch in Wednesday's win over the Grizzlies, scoring 15 points in 23 minutes, sinking three triples from six and shooting 5-for-9 overall.

J.J. Redick Pours In 15 Points In 18 Minutes Against Memphis
Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick played a season-low 18 minutes on Wednesday against Memphis, but actually didn't even need more time on the court to do some damage, as he had 15 points on 5-for-9 shooting with three triples. He also sank both of his free throw attempts. Redick is hitting exactly 50 percent […]

Fantasy Basketball Risers and Fallers: Week 23
The fantasy playoffs are upon us, but more importantly is that a one seed lost in the NCAA Tournament, and it wasn't even close! UMBC beat the Virginia Cavaliers by 20. This is where I would insert a Cleveland Cavaliers joke if I wasn't sure that Twitter had already used up all the good ones. How […]
The Unsung Raptors: Fred VanVleet and Jonas Valanciunas
First in the Eastern Conference. Third best record in the league. Most threatening second unit. The list of Toronto accolades at this point in the season grows more and more daunting. They are an interesting team that has seen a massive change in playstyle. Their superstars, Kyle Lowry and Demar DeRozan are still incredible leaders, […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (3/15/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Ben Simmons Pads Triple-Double Count in Loss
Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons posted a triple-double in a tough loss on Tuesday against the Pacers. Despite the counting stats, he wasn’t incredibly effective on the offensive end. His limited shooting range is well documented, but it was on display Tuesday. He shot 4-for-10 from the field for 10 points, but during crunch […]
J.J. Redick Nearly Perfect from Deep
Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick was hot on Tuesday in his 29 minutes. He was nearly perfect from deep, going 4-for-5, as he totaled 16 points. The three-point specialist did his job but not much else. The 76ers have recently added three-point shooting in Marco Belinelli and Ersan Ilyasova, so Redick will need to […]

Philadelphia 76ers forward Dario Saric (illness) will give it a go Tuesday night against the Indiana Pacers. Saric was dealing with an illness leading up to Tuesday but feels good enough to play through it. The Sixers will stick with the usual starting lineup with Saric at power forward. Should Saric experience any setbacks during […]
