Dominick Barlow News, Rumors, Updates - Philadelphia 76ers

Out at least two weeks Barlow will miss at least the next two weeks of action due to a lumbar spine bone stress response, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Impact The back issue cost Barlow the entire preseason, and now he'll begin the regular season on the sidelines. The earliest we could see Barlow back on the court would be Nov. 2, but it wouldn't be shocking to see his absence extend beyond this loose, two-week window.

JUNE 30 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Team option picked up The 76ers picked up Barlow's team option Monday, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

Impact This was a no-brainer for the 76ers for $3.42 million. Barlow is coming off a career-best season, posting averages of 7.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.9 steals in 23.8 minutes per game over 71 regular-season games (59 starts).

JUNE 29 • ROTOWIRE

Puts forth career year in 2025-26 Barlow produced five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 FT), one rebound and one assist in 15 minutes during Sunday's 144-114 loss to the Knicks in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

Impact Barlow put forth a quality campaign for the 76ers in 2025-26, averaging a career-high 7.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.9 steals in 23.8 minutes per tilt over 71 regular-season games (59 starts). His contract includes a $3.42 million team option for 2026-27, and it would make sense if Philadelphia brought Barlow back as a key reserve piece in the frontcourt for 2026-27.

MAY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Solid defensively in Game 2 Barlow finished with six points (3-3 FG), two rebounds, one steal and two blocks across 16 minutes in Wednesday's 108-102 loss to New York in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semif...

Impact Joel Embiid (hip, ankle) didn't suit up Wednesday night, although Barlow logged only three more minutes than he did in Game 1. While the 22-year-old didn't do much on the offensive end, he still got involved defensively, amassing two blocks and one steal. With Embiid uncertain for Game 3 on Friday night, Barlow will have an opportunity to see more action. However, even if Embiid misses another game, Barlow will still be tough to trust for fantasy purposes.

MAY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Moves out of rotation Barlow (coach's decision) didn't receive any playing time Thursday in the 76ers' 106-93 win over the Celtics in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals series.

Impact A starter for Philadelphia for most of the campaign, Barlow shifted to the bench late in the regular season but didn't notice a dramatic drop in minutes. His playing time has fallen by the wayside in the playoffs, however, with Barlow being a casualty of head coach Nick Nurse trimming down his rotation. Barlow has now gone unused in two of the first six games of the series and has played single-digit minutes in two of his four appearances.

Jayson Tatum has strong return to playoffs for Celtics, who rout 76ers 123-91 in Game 1

The Boston Celtics have rolled past the Philadelphia 76ers 123-91 in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference first-round matchup

APRIL 19 • Associated Press

Heading to bench Saturday Barlow is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pistons, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

Impact Barlow will play off the bench for the first time since Jan. 29, as the Sixers have elected to go with Kelly Oubre and Paul George at the forward spots. Barlow is averaging 5.9 points and 4.1 rebounds per game when deployed off the bench this season, but he's been a regular starter throughout the campaign -- he's been part of the second unit in just seven of his 66 regular-season appearances in 2025-26.

APRIL 4 • ROTOWIRE

Grabs 10 boards Friday Barlow finished with seven points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and three blocks in 26 minutes during Friday's 115-103 victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact Barlow grabbed double-digit rebounds for just the fourth time this season, while also matching his season-high with three blocks. Although these numbers almost certainly helped fantasy managers, the excitement levels should remain tempered. In seven games over the past two weeks, he has averaged just 4.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 18.8 minutes per game.

APRIL 4 • ROTOWIRE

Bottoms out Saturday Barlow posted three points (1-1 FG, 1-2 FT) and two rebounds in 15 minutes during Saturday's 118-114 victory over the Hornets.

Impact Barlow hung onto the starting spot at power forward despite the return of Kelly Oubre on Saturday, though that could change once the latter becomes further removed from his elbow injury. Over his last 10 games, Barlow has averaged a modest 7.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 0.9 blocks in 23.9 minutes per contest.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to play Monday Barlow (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Barlow exited Saturday's contest early due to a left ankle sprain, and it initially looked unlikely he'd suit up Monday, though the forward has progressed well and has now been cleared to play. The 22-year-old was averaging 10.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.0 steals in 28.2 minutes over his previous five contests prior to Saturday's brief appearance. Barlow has started 53 of the 60 games he's played and hasn't come off the bench when healthy since January, so he figures to slot into the starting five as usual against the Thunder.
