76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Not playing Tuesday
Edgecombe (illness) is out for Tuesday's game against the Nets, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Edgecombe was added to the injury report earlier Tuesday due to an illness, and the Sixers won't be taking any risks with their highly touted rookie. Players like Jared McCain, Justin Edwards and Jabari Walker could see more minutes with Edgecombe out. The rookie out of Baylor will aim to return for Friday's contest against the Bulls.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Uncertain to play Tuesday
Edgecombe was added to the 76ers' injury report and is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nets due to an illness, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Along with Edgecombe, Quentin Grimes and Dominick Barlow will take questionable tags into Tuesday's game due to illnesses, while Joel Embiid is probable. Perhaps out of concern for a bug being spread to other players, the 76ers opted to cancel their morning shootaround. Edgecombe will rest up throughout the morning and afternoon before the 76ers likely offer further clarity on his status as the game's 7 p.m. ET tipoff approaches. If both Edgecombe and Grimes end up being sidelined, the 76ers could have to turn for Jared McCain, Justin Edwards and Jabari Walker for more minutes on the wing, and one or both of Kyle Lowry and Eric Gordon could enter the rotation.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Scores 26 points with four dimes
Edgecombe contributed 26 points (10-21 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and four assists over 35 minutes during Saturday's 121-114 victory over the Mavericks.
Edgecombe was hot to start Saturday's game, as he racked up 14 points on seven shots in his first eight minutes of play, and he likely would have had an even bigger performance if it weren't for some early foul trouble that limited his first-half minutes. Edgecombe has now scored 20-plus points in four straight games, and he'll have an excellent chance of keeping the 20-plus points streak going Tuesday with a favorable matchup against the Nets.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Scores 23 points with three stocks
Edgecombe notched 23 points (10-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 38 minutes during Friday's 116-107 win over the Knicks.
Edgecombe didn't have any steals his last time out, but he snatched two within the first 10 minutes of Friday's win. He got off to a slow start offensively but completely flipped the script after halftime, scoring 18 of his 23 points on 8-for-10 shooting. Edgecombe has been hot over the past three games, posting averages of 23.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 3.3 triples, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks per contest during that stretch.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Nets 26 points with four treys
Edgecombe totaled 26 points (9-21 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 39 minutes during Sunday's 120-117 loss to Atlanta.
With Tyrese Maxey (illness) missing his second straight game, Edgecombe finished as the 76ers' second-leading scorer, and he's seen his usage rate rise to 19.9 over the past two. Edgecombe will look to keep it going Friday in New York, but he may see a dip in usage if Maxey returns to action.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Scores 22 poins in win
Edgecombe amassed 22 points (6-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 7-10 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals over 39 minutes during Friday's 115-105 win over Indiana.
Edgecombe contributed in multiple categories in Friday's win and notched his first 20-point game since Nov. 19 against Toronto. The rookie first-rounder took advantage of star guard Tyrese Maxey (illness) being out of the lineup and got to the free-throw line a season-high 10 times while recording two steals in a game for the ninth time this season. The 20-year-old guard has scored in double figures in eight of the past 10 games, averaging 14.0 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.3 steals across 31.9 minutes over that stretch.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Plays 38 minutes Sunday
Edgecombe closed with 15 points (5-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 38 minutes during Sunday's 112-108 loss to the Lakers.
While it wasn't a spectacular outing from Edgecombe, the rookie scored his most points and saw his most playing time since Nov. 20 in Milwaukee, which was his final appearance before missing three straight due to a calf injury. Over his first 15 games, Edgecombe averaged 37.4 minutes per game, but in his four appearances prior to Sunday, he averaged only 23.3 minutes. If Edgecombe gets back to playing 35-plus minutes a night, his fantasy production should get back to his early-season results.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Tips in game-winning shot
Edgecombe finished Thursday's 99-98 win over the Warriors with 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists and three steals in 24 minutes.
Edgecombe didn't need to do much with Tyrese Maxey cruising to a 35-point game, but he was efficient with his opportunities on the offensive end and helped secure a victory by tipping in a shot at the rim with a few seconds remaining. The Sixers have been careful with the rookie guard since his return from a left calf injury, as he's been held to 24 minutes or fewer in three straight games. Edgecombe's ceiling may be a bit limited until he ramps back up to a full workload, but he's found ways to contribute across the board even while on a restriction.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Handles light minutes in return
Edgecombe (calf) recorded seven points (3-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 21 minutes in Sunday's 142-134 double-overtime loss to the Hawks.
Edgecombe made his return after sitting out Philadelphia's prior three games while managing a left calf issue, but he seemingly had some restrictions in place. The 21 minutes he received were by far his fewest of the season, as he had logged at least 32 minutes in each of his previous 15 appearances. Edgecombe should eventually return to a 30-plus-minute role once he gets fully ramped up, but the rookie No. 3 overall pick appears to have settled in as more of a supporting player for Philadelphia after he wowed fantasy managers with a 34-point performance on 31.2 percent usage in his NBA debut back on Oct. 22. Since then, Edgecombe is averaging 13.8 points, 5.7 boards, 4.1 assists, 1.7 three-pointers and 1.3 steals in 36.0 minutes per contest while shooting 39.8 percent from the field and 78.1 percent from the charity stripe.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Cleared to play Sunday
Edgecombe (calf) is available and starting Sunday against the Hawks, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.
Edgecombe will return from a three-game absence due to a left calf injury, though he'll be on an unspecified minutes restriction, according to Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com. With the rookie back in action, Quentin Grimes will retreat to the bench.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Questionable for Sunday
Edgecombe (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Hawks, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Edgecombe continues to nurse a left calf injury. Even though he's missed the last three games, the rookie out of Baylor might be available to play Sunday, though a decision will likely be made closer to Sunday's tipoff. Edgecombe is averaging 15.6 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game this season.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Remains out Friday
Edgecombe (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Nets.
Edgecombe seems to be moving in the right direction toward returning to action, but he isn't ready for Friday's game. The rookie out of Baylor will miss a third straight game, and that means Quentin Grimes should continue to start at shooting guard next to Tyrese Maxey in the backcourt. Edgecombe's next chance to play will come against the Hawks on Sunday.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Practices Wednesday
Edgecombe (calf) practiced Wednesday, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
It's an encouraging sign amid the rookie first-rounder's recovery from calf tightness. With the 76ers back in action Friday against the Nets, the team may not officially update his injury designation until Thursday. For now, Edgecombe can be tentatively considered questionable.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Ruled out vs. Magic
Edgecombe (calf) won't play in Tuesday's game against the Magic, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.comreports.
Left calf tightness is costing Edgecombe a second straight game. The rookie first-rounder will be trying to recover in time for Friday's matchup against Brooklyn. Jared McCain played a season-high 26 minutes in Sunday's loss to Miami, setting him up as a strong streaming option for Tuesday.

76ers' VJ Edgecombe: Won't play Sunday
Edgecombe (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Edgecombe will miss his first game of the season due to left calf tightness. His imaging came back clean after he experienced discomfort in Thursday's game against the Bucks, and this absence is considered precautionary, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports. The rookie has started all 15 contests for the 76ers, averaging 15.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.3 steals in 37.3 minutes per game. With Edgecombe sidelined, Quentin Grimes is a likely candidate to join the starting lineup Sunday.
