76ers' Guerschon Yabusele: Questionable against Pistons
Yabusele (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Pistons.
Although the 76ers are getting healthier, Yabusele's absence would be a significant loss Friday. The veteran big man has averaged 16.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.6 threes in 31.4 minutes while shooting 41.9 percent from beyond the arc across his last eight outings (seven starts). If Yabusele sits out Friday, Justin Edwards and Eric Gordon would likely soak up additional minutes in Philadelphia's rotation.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Available against Detroit
Embiid (knee) has been cleared to play in Friday's game against the Pistons.
After missing 16 of the last 17 games for the 76ers, Embiid did not appear on the injury report for Philadelphia, making him available to play Friday in Detroit. In his first game back from the extended absence, the one-time NBA MVP recorded a triple-double in Tuesday's win against the Mavericks, finishing with 29 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists and one steal. This is a promising sign for the team, as the superstar big man might be back to form quicker than anticipated.

76ers' Chuma Okeke: Joins Philadelphia on 10-day deal
Okeke agreed to a 10-day contract with the 76ers on Thursday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
Okeke spent four years with the Magic for a total of 189 appearances. He's since been playing for the Westchester Knicks in the G League. The 76ers have a number of injuries right now, so Okeke could provide the team with some emergency depth up front.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Expected to play
Grimes (recently traded) is expected to play Friday against Detroit, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
The trade with Dallas involving Caleb Martin is official with the NBA, making Grimes eligible to debut for the 76ers. He's likely to have a sizable role with his new team on the wing. He was productive in Dallas with 10.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.7 three-pointers in 22.8 minutes per game.

76ers' Jared Butler: Headed to Philadelphia
The Wizards traded Butler and four second-round picks to the 76ers in exchange for Reggie Jackson and a 2026 first-round pick, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Butler was on a two-way deal in Washington, averaging 6.9 points, 2.6 assists and 1.3 rebounds in 11.3 minutes across 32 NBA appearances. However, the 24-year-old guard will now likely compete for depth minutes in Philadelphia's backcourt behind Tyrese Maxey and Kyle Lowry.

76ers' Kelly Oubre: Records double-double
Oubre amassed 15 points (6-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 11 rebounds, one block and two steals across 40 minutes during Wednesday's 108-101 loss to Miami.
Oubre recorded a double-double for the second time over his last three outings and the fourth time over his last eight contests. His two-way ability has provided a huge boost for a depleted 76ers team that has dealt with tons of injuries all season long. A productive veteran who can be reliable if given enough minutes, he's averaging a solid line of 18.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.6 steals per game in that eight-game stretch.

76ers' Tyrese Maxey: Scores 31 points Wednesday
Maxey chipped in 31 points (11-28 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, five assists and four steals in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 108-101 loss to the Heat.
Maxey extended his impressive stretch with games of at least 30 points to seven contests, and he's been doing the heavy lifting on offense in a season where Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George have missed considerable time due to injuries. Maxey is averaging a robust stat line of 34.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 1.7 steals per game during that aforementioned seven-game stretch.

76ers' Adem Bona: Productive in limited minutes
Bona had 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 18 minutes during Wednesday's 108-101 loss to the Heat.
Bona scored in double digits for the first time since Jan. 19, when he posted 10 points and six rebounds in a start versus the Bucks. Bona might have some productive outings here and there, but his fantasy appeal won't be very high since he's the fourth-string center for the 76ers behind Joel Embiid (knee), Guerschon Yabusele and Andre Drummond (toe).

76ers' Paul George: Muted production in return
George (finger) logged nine points (3-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three steals, two assists, one rebound and one block across 32 minutes in Wednesday's 108-101 loss to Miami.
George tore a tendon in his left pinkie finger and missed five consecutive games before suiting up Wednesday. Though the 76ers didn't ease him back in with a light workload, George exhibited some rust and said after the game that he'll need to wear a brace to protect the injured finger for at least six weeks, per Derek Bodner of AllPHLY.com. The 34-year-old forward has endured an injury-plagued first season in Philadelphia, appearing in 31 of the 76ers' 50 games while averaging 16.9 points (on 42.5 percent shooting from the field), 5.5 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 2.5 three-pointers and 1.8 steals in 32.0 minutes per game.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Unavailable Wednesday
Grimes (recently traded) did not play in Wednesday's 108-101 loss to Miami.
The 76ers traded for Grimes on Tuesday, and although he wasn't expected to suit up Wednesday, the NBA's official injury report left him as questionable until tipoff. Grimes' next chance to play will come Friday at Detroit. Head coach Nick Nurse said he's hopeful Grimes will play Friday, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.

76ers' Paul George: Will play against Miami
George (finger) is available for Wednesday's game against the Heat.
George has missed five straight games with a finger injury, but he's good to go Wednesday after being upgraded to questionable earlier in the day. The star forward has averaged 21.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.3 steals in 32.2 minutes over his last six games. George should be able to handle close to a full workload against Miami.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Unlikely to play Wednesday
Grimes is unlikely to make his 76ers debut Wednesday against the Heat, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Grimes was traded to Philadelphia this week in the deal that resulted in Caleb Martin being shipped to Dallas. If the 76ers newcomer can't play Wednesday against the Heat, his next chance to make his debut with his new team will be Friday on the road in Detroit.

76ers' Kyle Lowry: Good to go Wednesday
Lowry (hip) is available for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
Lowry missed Tuesday's game against Dallas with a hip injury, but he'll be available Wednesday to handle his usual role off Philadelphia's bench as the top backup point guard behind Tyrese Maxey. Across his last five games, Lowry has averaged 4.8 points, 3.4 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 18.3 minutes.

76ers' Andre Drummond: Ruled out against Miami
Drummond (toe) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
Drummond will miss an eighth straight game Wednesday for the 76ers as he continues to deal with a toe injury on his left foot. Up-and-comer Guerschon Yabusele will likely continue to see an increased workload with the veteran big man still on the mend.

76ers' Eric Gordon: Cleared to play Wednesday
Gordon (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
After missing consecutive outings with a knee injury, Gordon will return to Philadelphia's lineup Wednesday. The veteran sharpshooter has averaged 12.3 points, 2.9 assists, 1.0 rebounds and 3.0 threes while shooting 60.0 percent from deep over his last seven contests. Whether or not Gordon starts for the 76ers is likely contingent upon Paul George's (finger) status against Miami.

76ers' Paul George: Upgraded to questionable
George (finger) has been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
George, who's missed five straight games, completed an on-court workout Saturday and was a full participant at Monday's practice, but he was initially listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game. He's now a game-time decision, but even if he's cleared to return to the 76ers' starting lineup, George will likely face some restrictions.

Lowry (hip) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
After sitting out Tuesday's win over the Mavericks, Lowry is listed as questionable, along with Eric Gordon (knee) and Quentin Grimes (trade pending). Andre Drummond (toe) and Paul George (finger) are doubtful, while Joel Embiid (knee/rest) has already been ruled out.

76ers' Eric Gordon: Listed as questionable
Gordon (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Gordon missed his second game in a row Tuesday with knee soreness, but a return for the second leg of this back-to-back set appears to be on the table. If the veteran is unable to return, the 76ers will need to rely heavily on guys like Justin Edwards and Ricky Council since Paul George (finger) is still banged up and unlikely to play.
