PHILADELPHIA 76ERS NEWS

De'Anthony Melton - Produces well as starter Melton posted 12 points (4-18 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, nine assists, two blocks and two steals across 30 minutes during Friday's 106-104 loss to New York.

Impact Melton shot the ball poorly and needed 18 shots to deliver 12 points, but he delivered solid contributions in other categories -- he posted season-best figures in assists and blocks while also tying his season-best output in rebounds. Melton has also scored in double digits in six games in a row, and he is expected to remain a starter while James Harden (foot) and Joel Embiid (illness) remain sidelined.

Tobias Harris - Sees uptick in scoring numbers Harris racked up 23 points (9-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal over 37 minutes during Friday's 106-104 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Head coach Doc Rivers said Harris was going to handle a bigger offensive role while Joel Embiid (illness) and James Harden (foot) were sidelined, and the numbers backed that up here. Aside from being his best scoring mark of the campaign so far, this was the first time he surpassed the 20-point plateau, and it would be reasonable to expect an uptick in his numbers on a short-term scenario, continuing with Monday's contest against the Suns.

Tyrese Maxey - Shines despite loss Maxey ended with 31 points (10-29 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 39 minutes during Friday's 106-104 loss to New York.

Impact Maxey had to embrace a bigger role offensively with Joel Embiid (illness) and James Harden (foot) sidelined, and the star guard responded with his second consecutive 30-point performance. The 22-year-old has now scored at least 28 points in five of his last six games, and he should remain the 76ers' main offensive threat while both Embiid and Harden remain out.

Danuel House Jr. - Ruled out Friday House (illness) won't take the floor Friday versus the Knicks, Kyle Neubeck of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Impact House seemed to be trending toward an absence Friday after his late addition to the injury report due to an illness. Given the nature of his unavailability, it doesn't seem likely it will sideline him long. House was coming off of a season-high 24 minutes against the Wizards last time out, so his illness has surfaced at an inopportune time.

NOVEMBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Danuel House Jr. - Downgraded to questionable House is now questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks due to a non-COVID illness.

Impact House was a late addition to the injury report Friday, joining Joel Embiid (illness) and Matisse Thybulle (ankle) as questionable. With James Harden (ankle) already out, the 76ers could quickly find themselves with very limited depth options.
