Keeps scorching nets from deep Edgecombe produced 13 points (5-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists across 31 minutes during Saturday's 118-114 win over the Hornets.

Impact That's now five straight games in double figures in scoring for Edgecombe. During this span, the rookie first-rounder is averaging 26.0 points, 7.4 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.6 three-pointers in 35.6 minutes per game while shooting a blistering 51.4 percent from beyond the arc.

Edgecombe, Returning Ex-All-Stars Power 76ers to 157-137 Blowout vs Bulls — March 25, 2026 VJ Edgecombe, Joel Embiid and Paul George helped the 76ers massacre Chicago in Philadelphia.

5 DAYS AGO • BLEACHERNATION.COM

Chips in 22 points in blowout win Edgecombe finished Wednesday's 157-137 win over the Bulls with 22 points (7-9 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one steal over 30 minutes.

Impact It was just the third time in 22 games since the All-Star break that Edgecombe attempted least than 10 field goals, but that was unsurprising given the returns of both Joel Embiid (oblique) and Paul George (suspension). Edgecombe was still productive despite the dip in shots, finishing as the Sixers' third-leading scorer to extend his streak of 20-plus-point games to four. He'll be the 76ers' third option behind Embiid and George, but Edgecombe's offensive ceiling will lower considerably once Tyrese Maxey (finger) is cleared to return.

Drops 35 points in defeat Edgecombe closed with 35 points (14-28 FG, 7-15 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and one steal across 39 minutes during Monday's 123-103 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Edgecombe was a one-man wrecking crew for the 76ers, as the team's next-leading scorer was Trendon Watford with 14 points in a blowout loss. The exciting rookie has now eclipsed the 30-point mark three times this season, with two of those performances coming in his past three games. With Tyrese Maxey (finger) sidelined, Edgecombe has become even more of an offensive focal point and should continue to see increased usage until Maxey returns, which isn't expected until early April at the earliest.

Grabs career-high 13 boards Edgecombe chipped in 22 points (9-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 13 rebounds, four assists and one steal over 39 minutes during Saturday's 126-116 victory over the Jazz.

Impact Edgecombe was unable to repeat the 38-point performance he delivered in the win over the Kings on Thursday, but he still posted an impressive stat line while also grabbing a new career-high mark in rebounds. This was the fifth time Edgecombe grabbed double-digit boards, with the best two coming over the last seven days. Edgecombe should continue to operate as one of the top scoring weapons for the 76ers as long as the team remains as depleted as it is right now.

Erupts for career-high 38 in win Edgecombe posted 38 points (16-28 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, 11 assists and two steals over 39 minutes during Thursday's 139-118 victory over the Kings.

Impact The third overall pick in the 2025 Draft came up big on the road for the Sixers, setting a new career scoring high while Joel Embiid (oblique), Tyrese Maxey (finger) and Kelly Oubre (elbow) were all in street clothes. Edgecombe has scored in double digits in five of the last six games since returning from a back bruise of his own, averaging 18.7 points, 6.0 boards, 5.0 assists, 1.2 steals, 1.0 blocks and 0.8 threes in 32.7 minutes over that stretch.

Posts double-double Edgecombe finished Sunday's 109-103 win over the Trail Blazers with 18 points (8-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 35 minutes.

Impact Edgecombe continues to produce as a clear-cut starter in the 76ers' backcourt despite being a rookie, and the former Baylor standout left his mark on both ends of the court Sunday. This was his first double-double since a 19-point, 10-rebound effort against the Lakers on Feb. 5, and he's surpassed the 15-point mark in eight of his 11 contests since the All-Star break. Over that stretch, Edgecombe is averaging a solid line of 17.6 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game.
