76ers' Trendon Watford: Loses grip on rotation spot
Watford (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the 76ers' 119-109 loss to the Heat.
With all of Tyrese Maxey, Paul George, Kelly Oubre and Joel Embiid returning to action for Philadelphia within the past three games following extended absences, Watford is one of several 76ers supporting players who has fallen out of the rotation. Before failing to receive any minutes in Philadelphia's last two contests, Watford had appeared in each of the previous 17 games and averaged 7.9 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 17.9 minutes.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Contributes 15 points off bench
Watford contributed 15 points (6-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and four assists over 22 minutes during Monday's 123-103 loss to the Thunder.
Watford scored in double figures off the bench, though a lack of production for the 76ers other than that of VJ Edgecombe resulted in a lopsided defeat. Over Watford's past six games, all of which have come in a reserve role, the LSU product has reached the 10-point mark in four contests. The three-point shot remains absent from his game, as Watford entered Monday shooting 21.3 percent from beyond the arc and hasn't converted a triple since Feb. 3.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Shines off bench in win
Watford closed with 20 points (7-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds and four assists over 24 minutes during Saturday's 126-116 win over the Jazz.
Watford made the most of his 24 minutes off the bench in this win, hitting the 20-point threshold with an efficient effort and also ending just one rebound shy of a double-double. Watford has reached the 20-point mark just twice this season, and his recent performances haven't exactly been eye-popping, so he's not expected to carry much fantasy upside going forward, especially once the 76ers start to get healthier. Right now they're playing without Tyrese Maxey (finger), Joel Embiid (oblique) and Paul George (suspension).

76ers' Trendon Watford: Productive from second unit
Watford totaled 12 points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, six assists, three blocks and one steal in 22 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 124-96 loss to Denver.
The three blocks were a season high for Watford, as the 25-year-old forward took advantage of the Sixers' injury-depleted frontcourt rotation. Watford has scored in double digits in four of the last seven games (one start), averaging 8.6 points, 3.3 boards, 2.7 assists, 1.1 blocks and 0.7 steals in 20.1 minutes.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Back to bench
Watford won't start Saturday's game against the Nets, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.
With Adem Bona (back) returning to action, Watford will slide to the bench after a spot start Thursday against Detroit. Despite moving to a reserve role, Watford should still see plenty of minutes given all the absences in the 76ers' frontcourt, including Kelly Oubre (elbow), Paul George (suspension), Joel Embiid (oblique), Jabari Walker (illness) and Andre Drummond (back).

76ers' Trendon Watford: Joining starting lineup
Watford is starting Thursday's game against the Pistons, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
With Kelly Oubre out multiple weeks with an elbow sprain, Watford has a chance to carve out a steady role in the first unit. Watford has averaged 9.7 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 24.0 minutes per game over six contests as a starter this season, shooting 52.2 percent from the field.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Coming off bench Saturday
Watford is not in the 76ers' starting lineup against the Hawks on Saturday.
Watford made his sixth start of the season in Wednesday's 106-102 win over the Jazz, when he finished with seven points (3-6 FG, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one block over 22 minutes. He'll revert to a bench role for Saturday's contest due to the return of Kelly Oubre (illness).

76ers' Trendon Watford: Starting Wednesday
Watford will start Wednesday versus Utah, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Kelly Oubre (illness), VJ Edgecombe (back) and Joel Embiid (oblique) are all unavailable for Wednesday's game, so head coach Nick Nurse will trot out a starting lineup featuring Watford, Tyrese Maxey, Quentin Grimes, Dominick Barlow and Adem Bona. Across five starts this season, Watford has produced averages of 10.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.4 assists per contest.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Drops out of rotation
Watford (coach's decision) went unused off the bench in Saturday's 126-111 loss to the Pelicans.
Watford exited the rotation for the first time since Jan. 29, ending a stretch of eight consecutive appearances during which he averaged 7.3 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 20.5 minutes per contest and shot 48 percent from the field. Rather than turning to Watford to fill minutes on the second unit, head coach Nick Nurse gave more extended playing time to backup forwards Jabari Walker (16 minutes) and Justin Edwards (six minutes).

76ers' Trendon Watford: Sliding to bench Wednesday
Watford won't start Wednesday's game against the Knicks, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Dominick Barlow is back in action following a one-game absence due to an illness, pushing Watford to the second unit. Over his last five appearances off the bench, the 25-year-old power forward has averaged 7.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 19.6 minutes per contest.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Slides into starting five
Watford is starting Monday's game against Portland.
Watford will presumably be asked to shoulder a sizable workload Monday with both Dominick Barlow (illness) and Joel Embiid (knee) sidelined. This marks Watford's first start since Nov. 14 against the Pistons.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Surprises with 16 points
Watford finished with 16 points (7-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 113-94 victory over the Warriors.
Paul George's (suspension) extended absence will reveal some new wrinkles in the rotation, and it seems like Watford could make a more significant impact. The fifth-year pro has been hampered by injuries this season, but he appears to be past any limitations. It's too early to give Watford serious fantasy consideration, but his place in the rotation is worth monitoring.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Not part of rotation in return
Watford (adductor) played the final 4:45 of Wednesday's 131-110 win over the Wizards, finishing with three assists and no other statistics during his time on the court.
Available to play for the first time since Nov. 25 after a lengthy absence due to a left adductor strain, Watford wasn't included in head coach Nick Nurse's main rotation, as he didn't enter the contest until the 76ers had already built a 17-point lead in the waning minutes of the game. The 25-year-old forward could eventually emerge as a rotation option once he's further removed from the adductor strain, but he may need the 76ers to be without one or more key contributors in order to see meaningful minutes.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Available to play
Watford (thigh) is available to play Wednesday versus Washington.
Head coach Nick Nurse hinted during his pregame media availability Wednesday that while Watford may be available, he might not see the floor in his first game back from a lengthy layoff. With Kelly Oubre (knee) also set to return Wednesday, Watford might not be a consistent part of the rotation moving forward.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Limited if available
Watford (thigh) will have a heavy minutes restriction if he plays in Wednesday's game against Washington, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.
Watford is labeled as probable for Wednesday's game, but it's unclear what role he'll play if active. He's been unavailable since Nov. 25 due to a thigh strain.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Probable for Wednesday
Watford (thigh) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Wizards.
Watford, who has been sidelined since picking up his thigh strain Nov. 25, is now expected to return from a lengthy absence. The 76ers are pretty healthy these days, so it will be interesting to see what type of role Watford is able to carve out.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Lands questionable tag
Watford is questionable for Wednesday's game against Washington due to a left adductor strain.
Watford sustained the strain during the Nov. 25 loss to the Magic and hasn't appeared since, though it sounds like he's on the verge of returning to action. It's unclear what kind of role he may have upon his eventual return, as it's likely Watford will face a minutes restriction right off the bat. His potential return could be bad news for the playing time of Dominick Barlow in the frontcourt, though.

76ers' Trendon Watford: Still out for Monday
Watford (adductor) will remain on the inactive list for Monday's game against the Nuggets.
Watford appears to be on the cusp of a return, as he was recently cleared for full-contact, 5-on-5 work. However, Monday will mark his 17th straight game on the sidelines. Watford's next chance to play will come Wednesday versus the Wizards.
