INJURIES
Won't return vs. Magic Watford has ruled out for the rest of Tuesday's game against Orlando due to a left adductor strain, Derek Bodner of AllPHLY.com reports. He recorded eight points (2-2 FG, 4-4 FT),...
Impact Watford has been shut down for the rest of the night, but he'll have a few days to recover before his team's next matchup Friday against Brooklyn. Jabari Walker and Johni Broome could pick up a few additional minutes in the second half Tuesday in Watford's absence.

Exits early Tuesday Watford went to the locker room during the second quarter of Tuesday's game against the Magic due to an apparent groin injury, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Impact Watford departed with 4:07 remaining in the half after looking to suffer the injury while bringing the ball up the court. He can be considered questionable to return until further notice.
NOVEMBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Strong showing from second unit Watford logged 19 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal across 26 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 127-117 loss to the Heat.
Impact The fifth-year forward already has one triple-double this season in a start against the Raptors on Nov. 8, and Watford came within sniffing distance of another as he led the Sixers in assists on the afternoon while finishing second in points and boards. His court time and usage remain inconsistent however, even with Joel Embiid (knee) and Kelly Oubre (knee) on the shelf -- Watford had failed to score in double digits in six straight games coming into Sunday, and he'd posted a goose egg in 14 minutes against the Bucks on Thursday. Until he begins to string solid performances together, Watford will be little more than a cheap DFS option for fantasy purposes.

Bench role Monday Watford is not in the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Clippers, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
Impact Watford started the 76ers' past four games, even posting a triple-double in his first outing of that stretch, but will move back to the bench with Paul George (knee) entering the starting lineup for his season debut Monday. George will be on a minutes restriction early, so Watford should still have a role, though the LSU product will need to maintain a high level of play to keep earning consistent minutes as George ramps up.

Maxey, Embiid lead Philadelphia 76ers to 130-120 win over Toronto Raptors

Tyrese Maxey scored 31 points, Joel Embiid added 29 and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Toronto Raptors 130-120
NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • Associated Press
Logs first triple-double of career Watford finished Saturday's 130-120 win over the Raptors with 20 points (8-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 17 rebounds, 10 assists and one block over 37 minutes.
Impact Watford was inserted into the 76ers' starting lineup for the first time this season, and he took full advantage of the opportunity. He led both teams with career highs in both rebounds and assists en route to the first triple-double of his five-year NBA career, and he finished third on the team in points behind Tyrese Maxey (31) and Joel Embiid (29). Watford's breakout performance Saturday should keep him in the 76ers' starting lineup, at least until Paul George (knee) is cleared to make his 2025-26 debut.
NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Starting Saturday Watford will start in Saturday's game against the Raptors, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Impact The fifth-year forward will get the starting nod against Toronto, pushing Jabari Walker to the bench. Over five regular-season appearances off the bench thus far, Watford has averaged 8.4 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 19.2 minutes per contest.
NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Scores eight in loss Watford contributed eight points (2-4 FG, 4-5 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 19 minutes during Tuesday's 113-111 loss to the Bulls.
Impact Watford was unable to follow up his 16/9/7 game Sunday in Brooklyn, but still was a solid contributor off the bench. With Paul George (knee) and Dominick Barlow (elbow) nursing injuries, Watford may see himself in a prominent bench role again Wednesday against Cleveland.
NOVEMBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Receives 18 minutes in debut Watford (hamstring) logged two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds and three assists across 18 minutes in Tuesday's 139-134 overtime win over the Wizards.
Impact Sidelined for Philadelphia's first three games due to a tight left hamstring, Watford was cleared to make his season debut Tuesday and provided the 76ers with some reinforcement at forward while Paul George (knee) and Dominick Barlow (elbow) were both out. Watford handled a meager 8.9 percent usage rate in the contest and came up empty in the defensive categories, but he finished second to only sixth man Quentin Grimes (39 minutes) in playing time among bench players. Even so, Watford is still likely to see his minutes get cut once the likes of George, Barlow and Jared McCain (thumb) return, and it wouldn't be surprising if Watford was cut out of head coach Nick Nurse's rotation entirely.

Good to go Tuesday Watford (hamstring) will play Tuesday against the Wizards, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
Impact Watford is all set to make his season debut after a hamstring issue delayed him to open the campaign. He's likely to be eased back into the mix, but there is a path to minutes for him with so many injuries in the frontcourt.
