Impact 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 a contest.

Strong defensive effort in win 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.

Impact 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 their star center is back in the lineup, he should still be on the radar if you need defensive stats and rebounds.

Impresses off bench 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.

Remains productive in reserve role Reed finished with 17 points (7-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal over 27 minutes during Friday's 103-95 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact After starting Philadelphia's previous game Wednesday versus Memphis, Reed returned to the bench Friday while Mo Bamba logged a start. The change in roles didn't impact Reed's productivity -- in fact, he played three more minutes, and his totals of 17 points, 11 boards, three blocks and a steal were identical to his previous outing. Reed has been up-and-down as the primary replacement to Joel Embiid (knee), but he has done enough as a rebounder and shot-blocker to justify rostering in most fantasy leagues with Embiid still without a return timetable.

MARCH 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Reed won't start Friday's game against the Pelicans.

Impact Reed returned to the starting lineup Wednesday and posted 17 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks in 24 minutes before fouling out. He'll be replaced by Mo Bamba at center, but Reed should still play plenty of minutes off the bench.

MARCH 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Double-double against Grizzlies 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.

Impact 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.

MARCH 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back with first unit Reed will start Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies.

Won't start Friday Reed won't start Friday's game against the Hornets, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.

Impact 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.

MARCH 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Makes impact on glass Reed amassed eight points (4-6 FG), 12 rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 31 minutes during Friday's 104-97 victory over the Cavaliers.

Impact Making his 10th straight start in the absence of Joel Embiid (knee), Reed ripped down double-digit boards for the fourth time, although only two of those turned into double-doubles. During his stint in the Sixers' starting five, the fourth-year center is averaging 8.2 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.3 blocks in 27.0 minutes a game, as his increased role hasn't resulted in solid fantasy utility in shallower fantasy formats.

Consistency continues Reed finished with 13 points (6-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals over 29 minutes during Monday's 123-121 win over the Cavaliers.

Impact 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.

Impact 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.

Impact 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.

Impact Even without Joel Embiid (knee) Reed returned to a modest level of production, functioning in a platoon with Mo Bamba, who logged 19 minutes in his return from a knee injury that had sidelined him since Jan 12. Reed continues to thrive as a defensive playmaker, with a 2.5 percent block rate and a 1.9 percent steal rate, which, respectively, rank in the 73rd and 89th percentile among all bigs.

Impact Fans of Reed and Patrick Beverley (17 points, 11 assists) were in basketball heaven Saturday. Joel Embiid (knee) and Tyrese Maxey (ankle) didn't suit up, while Mo Bamba (knee) is amid a multi-week absence, leaving Reed with a mammoth workload.
