76ers' VJ Edgecombe: 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.
That's now five straight games in double figures in scoring for Edgecombe. During that 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.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: 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.
It was just the third time in 22 games since the All-Star break that Edgecombe attempted less 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.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: 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.
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. In addition, his seven triples Monday marked a season high. 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 the beginning of April at the earliest.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: 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.
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 on the season, and the top two have come 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.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: 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.
The No. 3 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.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: 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.
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.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Logs 21 points in return
Edgecombe (back) finished Tuesday's 139-129 win over the Grizzlies with 21 points (7-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, five assists and three steals over 35 minutes.
After a three-game absence due to a lumbar contusion, Edgecombe was cleared to suit up and didn't operate with a minutes restriction. Edgecombe's return was especially timely after Tyrese Maxey was diagnosed Tuesday with a tendon injury to his pinky finger, which will keep him out for at least the next three weeks. Edgecombe showed some rust from beyond the arc, but he still posted 20-plus points for the fifth time in eight appearaces since the All-Star break. Edgecombe will need to take on a larger role moving forward in the absences of Maxey, Paul George (suspension) and Joel Embiid (oblique).

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Good to go Tuesday
Edgecombe (back) is available for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
Edgecombe will shed his questionable tag and return from a three-game absence due to a lumbar contusion. The rookie first-rounder will likely operate in more of an on-ball role Tuesday with Tyrese Maxey (finger) sidelined. Over seven appearances since the All-Star break, Edgecombe has averaged 18.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.4 steals in 33.6 minutes per game.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Listed as questionable
Edgecombe (back) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.
After missing the past three games for the 76ers, Edgecombe is officially day-to-day. With so many key players out for the 76ers, Edgecombe could see a considerable bump in usage if he's able to return from a three-game absence.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Listed out Monday
Edgecombe (back) is out for Monday's game against Cleveland.
Edgecombe was unable to shake a questionable tag and will be sidelined for a third straight game. The 76ers will be very shorthanded, so guys like Cameron Payne, Quentin Grimes and Jabari Walker could see expanded roles. Edgecombe's next chance to suit up will come during the second half of Philadelphia's back-to-back set against Memphis on Tuesday.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Iffy for Monday
Edgecombe (back) is questionable for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
Edgecombe could miss a third straight game due to a back injury. If he is unable to play, Trendon Watford, Quentin Grimes and Jabari Walker could see expanded roles, especially with Tyrese Maxey (finger) already ruled out.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Not playing Saturday
Edgecombe (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Hawks.
Edgecombe will miss a second consecutive game due to a lumbar contusion, and the rookie first-rounder's next chance to play is Monday against the Cavaliers. Trendon Watford figures to remain in the 76ers' starting lineup for as long as Edgecombe is sidelined, and Quentin Grimes and Jabari Walker should continue to operate in elevated roles off the bench.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Doubtful for Saturday
Edgecombe (back) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Hawks.
Edgecombe is likely to miss a second consecutive contest due to a lumbar contusion he sustained in Tuesday's loss to the Spurs. If he's ultimately ruled out, Quentin Grimes, Tyrese Martin and Justin Edwards would be candidates for increased playing time.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Misses another practice
Edgecombe (back) did not practice Friday, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Edgecombe was limited to an individual session after Friday's practice. The rookie suffered a lumbar contusion Tuesday against the Spurs, and it's unclear if he will be able to return from a one-game absence Saturday against Atlanta.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Sitting out Wednesday
Edgecombe (back) will not play Wednesday against the Jazz, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Edgecombe suffered a lumbar contusion Tuesday against the Spurs, and it sounds like he will be listed as day-to-day going forward. The rookie will be re-evaluated ahead of Saturday's game versus Atlanta. In the meantime, the 76ers could lean more on Quentin Grimes and Cameron Payne.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Shut down vs. Spurs
Edgecombe won't return to Tuesday's game against San Antonio due to lower back soreness, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports. He'll finish the night with six points (2-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks in 20 minutes.
Edgecombe will likely be re-evaluated within the next day or so to determine his availability moving forward. The Sixers were already shorthanded without Joel Embiid (oblique) and Kelly Oubre (illness), so it'll be up to Quentin Grimes, Cameron Payne, Jabari Walker and Justin Edwards to eat up minutes in the second half.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Fills stat sheet in loss
Edgecombe registered 23 points (8-21 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 40 minutes during Sunday's 114-98 loss to Boston.
Edgecombe needed 21 shots to score 23 points, but the rookie continues to show he has already adjusted well to life at the next level. Firmly entrenched in a starting role alongside Tyrese Maxey in the backcourt, Edgecombe has scored at least 20 points in four of his six appearances since the All-Star break while shooting 47.9 percent from the floor. The subpar shooting display was simply an outlier.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Scores 19 points with full line
Edgecombe amassed 19 points (8-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 39 minutes during Thursday's 124-117 win over the Heat.
Edgecombe has been dialed in over the past two games, scoring efficiently, crashing the glass and wreaking havoc on defense. He's gone 17-for-25 from the floor over the torrid two-game stretch while ripping away a total of four steals. The rookie will look to keep the good times rolling Sunday in Boston.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Drills six threes in blowout
Edgecombe amassed 24 points (8-18 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 135-108 win over Minnesota.
Edgecombe was dialed in from long range, helping the 76ers to a decisive win over Minnesota. The rookie has now scored 20 or more points in two of his last three games. His six made threes also set a new career high for the Baylor product.
