Batum will start Sunday's game against the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis

Batum returned to action Thursday versus the Knicks after missing nine straight games heading into the All-Star break due to a hamstring injury. He started that contest but played just 18 minutes and was held scoreless. He was deemed available for the second half of Philadelphia's back-to-back set Friday versus Cleveland, but he didn't start and wasn't used off the bench. While Batum is back in the starting lineup Sunday, his role may remain limited.

EDGE Analysis

Batum returned to action Thursday after sitting out the previous nine contests with a left hamstring strain. However, the Sixers could opt to hold out the veteran forward during the second leg of their back-to-back Friday.

Batum (hamstring) didn't attempt a field goal and recorded three rebounds and one assist in Thursday's 110-96 loss to the Knicks.

EDGE Analysis

Batum hasn't been a high-usage player for years, but he was especially passive on the offensive end in his return from a nine-game absence due to a hamstring strain. He took on a 2.4 percent usage rate on the night, the lowest among all the 76ers' rotation players. Now that he's healthy again, Batum looks like he'll occupy a starting role at forward alongside Tobias Harris, but the former could end up settling into a 20-to-25-minute role and likely profiles only as a deep-league option. Batum can't be relied upon for consistent scoring, but he's an efficient perimeter shooter and is capable of contributing in both of the defensive categories.

EDGE Analysis

Batum hasn't suited up since late January, but he resumed practicing before the All-Star break and has been cleared to return to game action as the 76ers resume play Thursday. Over 13 appearances in January, he averaged 5.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 26.7 minutes per game.

EDGE Analysis

Batum got through Wednesday's practice, so he appears to be in the final stages of rehab from the hamstring injury. We should get another update following Thursday's shootaround, but if he can get back out there, he will likely siphon away some minutes from KJ Martin and Kelly Oubre.

EDGE Analysis

Batum's next opportunity to take the court will come Feb. 22 against New York following the upcoming All-Star break. The 76ers should have room in the rotation for both KJ Martin and Ricky Council on Wednesday while Batum misses a ninth straight game.

Head coach Nick Nurse said Batum (hamstring) was a partial participant in Tuesday's practice, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Batum has been practicing with the 76ers in some fashion for more than a week, but he apparently hasn't made enough progress in his recovery from the left hamstring injury to gain clearance for full participation. Nurse didn't reveal Batum's official status for Wednesday's contest against the Heat, but since that game marks the 76ers' last one before the All-Star break, the veteran forward will most likely sit out and take advantage of the extended period of rest coming up.
