76ers' Paul Reed: Double-double against San Antonio
Rotowire
Reed ended with 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 10 rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 31 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 133-126 double-overtime victory over San Antonio.
It's the seventh double-double of the season for Reed but his first since March 8, while the five assists tied his season high -- a mark he also reached Saturday. The fourth-year center is seeing his usage rise again with Tobias Harris (knee) now missing from the frontcourt along with Joel Embiid (knee), and in the three games Harris has sat out, Reed has averaged 7.3 points, 6.3 boards, 3.3 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 23.0 minutes per contest.

76ers' Paul Reed: Strong defensive effort in win
Rotowire
Reed contributed six points (3-4 FG), five rebounds, five assists and four steals over 23 minutes during Saturday's 116-96 victory over the Grizzlies.
Reed compiled four steals in the win, continuing to provide viable streaming value despite the return of Joel Embiid. While Reed's upside is limited now that the star center is back in the lineup, he should still be on the radar if you need defensive stats and rebounds.

Rotowire
Reed registered 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals across 24 minutes during Sunday's 121-107 win over the Clippers.

76ers' Paul Reed: Double-double against Grizzlies
Rotowire
Reed notched 17 points (8-17 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 11 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal in 24 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 115-109 loss to Memphis.
Shifting back into the starting five after coming off the bench for three games, Reed responded with his fifth double-double of the season. Joel Embiid (knee) doesn't appear to be close to returning from knee surgery, so Reed will continue filling a large role in the Sixers' frontcourt, but his production has been erratic. Over 16 games since Embiid went down, Reed is averaging 8.8 points, 7.8 boards, 1.6 assists and 1.3 blocks over 25.4 minutes a contest.

76ers' Paul Reed: Won't start Friday
Rotowire
Reed won't start Friday's game against the Hornets, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.
With Joel Embiid (knee) sidelined, Reed has started 14 of Phildelphia's last 15 contests. However, the 76ers are switching things up Friday, replacing Reed with Mo Bamba. Given how depleted the 76ers' frontcourt depth is, Reed figures to see plenty of playing time off the bench, but his fantasy value still takes a hit.

Reed is averaging 10.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 17 games as a starter this season. The 24-year-old grades is a quality two-way rebounder and defensive playmaker, with Monday's production being indicative of realistic rest-of-season expectations.

76ers' Paul Reed: Feeling better
Rotowire
Reed, who's suited up for the last two games despite battling an illness, said he's feeling "a lot better" after Wednesday's morning shootaround, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Reed was limited to 15 and 22 minutes, respectively, over the last two games while battling an illness, totaling just four points, 10 rebounds and one block. With Joel Embiid (knee) sidelined, the 76ers need all the production they can get out of Reed, who's averaging 10.5 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.0 steals in 24.7 minutes across his previous 13 starts this season.

76ers' Paul Reed: Dealing with illness
Rotowire
Coach Nick Nurse said Reed is dealing with an illness ahead of Monday's game versus Dallas, but the center will suit up, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
With Joel Embiid (knee) sidelined, the 76ers need Reed available for as many minutes as possible, but the backup big man will presumably be limited against the Mavericks. He was reportedly dealing with the aliment ahead of Saturday's blowout loss to Brooklyn, and he posted just two points and four rebounds in 15 minutes during that contest.

Rotowire
Reed supplied seven points (3-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal over 28 minutes during Thursday's 127-124 win over the Jazz.
Getting his third start in the last four games due to Joel Embiid's knee trouble, Reed led the Sixers in rebounding as he pulled down 10-plus boards for the third time this season. In 11 contests as a starter, the fourth-year forward is averaging 12.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.4 blocks and 1.2 steals in 25.8 minutes a game, and with Embiid potentially facing an extended absence, Reed's run of fantasy relevance should continue.

Rotowire
Reed racked up 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals across 28 minutes during Saturday's 105-92 loss to Chicago.
With Joel Embiid (ankle) sidelined, Reed started for the fourth consecutive game, and while he delivered a decent stat line, it's clear he's not going to have the same impact as Embiid on the offensive end of the court. Reed is averaging 9.3 points and 5.3 rebounds per game in that four-game span, and while his fantasy upside has received a bump with Embiid sidelined, his long-term role belongs on the bench.

Joel Embiid (illness) is sitting out Friday's game, so Reed will start at center, while Marcus Morris replaces Nicolas Batum (finger) at power forward.

Rotowire
Reed logged 10 points (5-9 FG), nine rebounds, one assist, four blocks and two steals in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 112-99 loss to Minnesota.
With Joel Embiid (hip) sidelined, Reed was given extra run, though he surprisingly came off the bench while Marcus Morris got the start. Reed continues to prove that, when given the minutes, he can produce excellent fantasy numbers. However, head coach Nick Nurse has shown hesitancy to play Reed and Embiid together, capping the 24-year-old's upside.
