Johni Broome - Listed out for Wednesday Broome (knee) won't play Wednesday against the Wizards.

Impact Broome went under the knife at the end of February to repair a lateral meniscus tear in his right knee, and the Sixers have yet to provide much of an update on a timeline for his return. He was scheduled to be re-evaluated one month from his surgery date, so more information could come to light in the coming days. For now, he can be considered doubtful for Friday's matchup against Minnesota.

Joel Embiid - Not listed on injury report Embiid (illness) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Embiid was under the weather during Monday's loss to the Heat, when he posted 26 points (10-25 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one block in 34 minutes. However, the illness won't cause him to miss Wednesday's contest. The star big man has appeared in three straight outings, averaging 30.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.3 blocks in 32.7 minutes per contest over that stretch.

Cameron Payne - Cast out of rotation Payne (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the 76ers' 119-109 loss to the Heat.

Impact With all of Tyrese Maxey, Paul George, Kelly Oubre and Joel Embiid returning to action for the 76ers within the past three games following extended absences, Payne is one of several 76ers supporting players who has fallen out of the rotation. Before failing to receive any minutes Monday, Payne had appeared in each of Philadelphia's first 20 games out of the All-Star break and averaged 7.8 points, 2.8 assists, 1.9 rebounds, 1.6 three-pointers and 1.2 steals in 17.6 minutes.

Trendon Watford - Loses grip on rotation spot Watford (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the 76ers' 119-109 loss to the Heat.

Impact With all of Tyrese Maxey, Kelly Oubre and Joel Embiid returning to action for the 76ers within the past three games following extended absences, Watford is one of several 76ers supporting players who has fallen out of the rotation. Before failing to receive any minutes in Philadelphia's last two contests, Watford had appeared in each of the previous 17 games and averaged 7.9 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 17.9 minutes.

Andre Drummond - Exits rotation Drummond (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the 76ers' 119-109 loss to the Heat.

Impact Drummond had appeared in each of the 76ers' last seven games and averaged 5.4 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 blocks and 0.9 three-pointers in 19.6 minutes during that stretch. However, his role had been trending down in the latter two contests, which coincided with Joel Embiid's return from a long-term absence due to an oblique strain. Drummond played five minutes of garbage time in a 20-point win over Chicago on Wednesday, then played six minutes at the start of the fourth quarter in Saturday's 118-114 win over the Hornets. Head coach Nick Nurse opted to lean exclusively on Adem Bona as Embiid's backup in Monday's contest, resulting in Drummond dropping out of the rotation.

Jabari Walker - Loses hold of rotation spot Walker (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the 76ers' 119-109 loss to the Heat.

Impact With all of Tyrese Maxey, Kelly Oubre and Joel Embiid returning to action for the 76ers within the past three games following extended absences, Walker is one of several 76ers supporting players who has fallen out of the rotation. Before failing to receive any minutes in Philadelphia's last two contests, Walker had appeared in each of the previous four games before that and averaged 3.8 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 10.3 minutes.

MarJon Beauchamp - Falls out of rotation Beauchamp (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the 76ers' 119-109 loss to the Heat.

Impact With all of Tyrese Maxey, Kelly Oubre and Joel Embiid returning to action for the 76ers within the past three games following extended absences, Beauchamp is one of several 76ers supporting players who has fallen out of the rotation. Before failing to receive any minutes in Philadelphia's last two contests, Beauchamp had made appearances in eight consecutive games and averaged 7.9 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.3 three-pointers and 1.1 assists in 18.3 minutes.

Quentin Grimes - Serviceable effort Monday Grimes contributed 11 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and four assists in 32 minutes during Monday's 119-109 loss to the Heat.

Impact Grimes logged 32 minutes in the loss, continuing to play a meaningful role despite the fact that Philadelphia is running with a relatively injury-free rotation. While it does appear as though he could flirt with 28 minutes per game moving forward, his fantasly value is likely to be limited to streaming, as opposed to being a must-roster player.

Justin Edwards - Barely sees floor Monday Edwards accumulated no counting stats in one minute during Monday's 119-109 loss to the Heat.

Impact Edwards' role basically disappeared, logging just one minute in the loss. After playing a sizeable role for a one-week period earlier in the month, he can now be safely dropped across most fantasy leagues. As long as Philadelphia can remain healthy, Edwards is unlikely to play more than about 12 minutes on any given night.

Kelly Oubre Jr. - Double-doubles in loss Oubre ended with 11 points (5-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt), 11 rebounds and three assists in 31 minutes during Monday's 119-109 loss to Miami.

Impact Oubre recorded just his fifth double-double of the season, albeit one with very little in the way of supporting stats. While the minutes were encouraging, Oubre's upside is limited at the moment, given the fact that Philadelphia is mostly healthy. In two games since returning from injury, Oubre has averaged 10.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.0 three-pointers.

Impact Embiid didn't look quite himself during Monday's clash, and he disclosed to reporters after the game that he's feeling under the weather. He'll have Tuesday off to rest before Philly's next matchup Wednesday in Washington. Embiid can be considered day-to-day until further notice.
