Fantasy Impact
The performance made Edgecombe the first 76ers rookie since Ben Simmons to record at least 25 points, seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals in a single game. The all-around stat line showcased his ability to contribute across multiple categories. Philadelphia's road trip continues Thursday with a matchup against the Lakers.
VJ Edgecombe filled the stat sheet for the 76ers Saturday night, dishing out five assists, recording one steal, grabbing three rebounds, and chipping in 15 points (6-10 FG, 2-5 3PT, 1-1 FT) in a 124-114 win over the Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact
Edgecombe continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with one or more steals, one or more assists, three or more rebounds, and five or more points in each of his last five games. The rookie guard has fought consistency issues of late, but remains a reliable lineup option as part of an athletic Philadelphia starting five, averaging 15.1 points, 1.5 steals, 4.1 assists, and 5.4 rebounds per game to go along with an 18.7% usage rate so far this season.
VJ Edgecombe scored 9 points (2-11 FG, 1-4 3P, 4-4 FT) with 6 rebounds, an assist, and a steal in the Sixers’ 130-93 loss to the Hornets.
Fantasy Impact
Edgecombe’s 9 points on 11 shots leaves a lot to be desired. At least he had a decent amount of free throws to somewhat hold up his final stat line. It was a rough outing for the young rookie, but he should bounce back sooner rather than later.
VJ Edgecombe put up 25 points (10-21 FG, 2-7 3PT, 3-4 FT) and pulled down seven rebounds in Tuesday's loss to the Suns.
Fantasy Impact
Edgecombe added two steals and a block on the defensive end to round out a solid stat line. This was the first time the rookie has scored 20-plus points since January 3 - a stretch of eight games. After scoring a combined 30 points while shooting just 10 of 24 from the floor over the previous three games, maybe this performance will get Edgecombe going again.
