76ers head coach Nick Nurse confirmed that there has been no live, on-court action for Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) or Trendon Watford (adductor) so far.Oubre has been out since November 14th, and the team said last week that he would be re-evaluated this week. It seems that the evaluation didn't change much in terms of his recovery time. Quentin Grimes will continue to play big minutes and put up top-60 value in fantasy formats.
Jared McCain produced 15 points (6-of-13 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), one rebound, three assists and two three-pointers in Tuesday's loss to the Magic.One game removed from scoring a season-high 15 points against the Heat, McCain matched that number on Tuesday. It wasn't enough to help the 76ers remain competitive, but it was another step in the right direction for the second-year guard. Quentin Grimes (eight points, three rebounds and four assists), who made another start for the injured Kelly Oubre Jr., shot 1-of-9 from the field on Tuesday. He remains a superior fantasy option to McCain, but Jared's recent production should not be overlooked.
