Gets involved during blowout Milton registered nine points (2-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 120-85 loss to Miami.

Impact Milton finished with playoff highs in points, rebounds, steals and minutes during the blowout loss. With Tyrese Maxey and James Harden demanding the majority of the minutes in Philadelphia's backcourt, Milton doesn't figure to garner a major workload during Game 6 on Thursday.

Dazzles with 30-point effort Milton closed with 30 points (11-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals over 33 minutes during Sunday's 118-106 victory over Detroit.

Impact Milton came off the bench despite the fact that the 76ers rested most of their regulars for the final game of the regular season, but he still led the team in scoring. In fact, the 30-point output was a season-high mark for him. He ends the regular season with averages of 8.2 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game.

Excellent against Miami Milton notched 20 points (9-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes during Monday's 113-106 win over the Heat.

Impact Milton was one of several Philadelphia players that stepped his game up with James Harden (hamstring) and Joel Embiid (back) sidelined, but it's safe to say this performance came out of nowhere. Milton had scored a combined 10 points while logging 13.4 minutes per tilt over his last eight contests, so all signs would seem to indicate this was an outlier rather than a norm going forward. Having said that, Milton could experience an uptick in his minutes as long as Harden remains sidelined.

Unproductive in Wednesday's win Milton racked up six points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal over 20 minutes during Wednesday's 123-108 win over the Knicks.

Impact Milton remained a nonfactor during the win, failing to eclipse 20 minutes for the fourth straight game. Having played seven games since returning from a lengthy absence, Milton has failed to score in double digits, putting up an average of just 5.1 points per game. Based on his recent efforts, it's fair to say he can be safely left on the waiver wire in all 12-team leagues.

Solid stat line off bench Milton finished with six points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five assists and three rebounds across 20 minutes Saturday in the 76ers' 103-93 win over the Cavaliers.

Impact After missing 18 consecutive games with a back contusion, Milton was available for both ends of the 76ers' weekend back-to-back set. Head coach Doc Rivers had no hesitation about reintegrating Milton in the rotation for both games, with the fourth-year guard clearing 20 minutes in both contests. The 76ers were missing the newly acquired James Harden (hamstring) for both of those contests, however, so Milton could be at risk of seeing his playing time cut drastically whenever the 10-time All-Star is cleared to make his Philadelphia debut.

Available Friday Milton (back) is available for Friday's matchup against the Thunder.

Impact A back bruise has kept Milton out since early January. While he has a chance to return Friday, it's unclear what his role will be after the weekend, as James Harden (hamstring) seems on track to make his debut Tuesday against the Celtics.

Chance to return Friday Milton (back) is questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder, Justin Grasso of SI.com reports.

Impact Milton has been sidelined the past 18 games by the back injury, and it's the first time since the injury surfaced he hasn't been ruled out straightaway. The 25-year-old averaged 10.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 24.7 minutes across his first 27 appearances of the season, but the acquisition of James Harden on Thursday figures to limit Milton's outlook even further once fully healthy.

Expect Furkan Korkmaz (knee) to continue serving as Philadelphia's primary backup at point guard behind starter Tyrese Maxey while Milton is on the mend.
