Dorell Wright scored 11 points off the bench on Friday, hitting 4-of-8 shots (including three treys) with one rebound, two assists, and three steals in 25 minutes. Wright has been playing well and producing at a late-round level over the past week, but unless he can topple Jason Richardson (nine points, 29 minutes) he's going to be a deep league asset for the most part.

Dorell Wright came off the bench for 14 points, three rebounds, two assists and two 3-pointers on 6-of-9 shooting in Wednesday's loss. He played 30 minutes, while starter Jason Richardson saw just 19 minutes in another ugly performance. Richardson is really struggling right now and there could be a window of opportunity for Wright to steal the starting job. Wright scored 28 points last Wednesday, then disappeared with a total of 10 points in his next two. But he's averaging 12 points, five boards and 2.5 3-pointers over his last two games, and would become a must-own player if he does replace J-Rich in the starting five.

Dorell Wright returned to the Sixers' bench on Saturday, where he scored two points on 1-of-7 shooting, with five rebounds and two assists in 21 minutes. Wright can still produce excellent value in sufficient playing time, but his minutes rise and fall depending upon the health of Philly's starters. With Jason Richardson (back) in the starting lineup again, feel free to cut D-Wright for another free agent.

Dorell Wright scored eight points on 3-of-9 shooting (including a three) with five rebounds, one steal, and three blocks in 23 minutes on Friday against the Warriors. This is a good enough performance for owners that added him to hold on, but with Jason Richardson nearing a return he can only be considered a day-to-day fantasy asset.

Dorell Wright will get another start on Friday against the Warriors. Wright is coming off a 28-point, five-triple game on Wednesday and he would be well worth starting in fantasy leagues with Jason Richardson (back) out of the lineup. J-Rich is a game-time decision and those that picked up Wright should hold him until Richardson proves his health.

Dorell Wright started in place of Jason Richardson (back) and hit 8-of-11 shots and five 3-pointers on his way to a season-high 28 points, six rebounds, a steal and two blocks in Wednesday's win over the Grizzlies. Wright has scored 20 or more in three of his last five games, but had totaled just 15 points over his last two. If Richardson's going to miss more games, Wright is worth starting in all formats, but should return to being an inconsistent performer once Richardson is back in action. But if you have a player you've been wanting to cut and Wright's available, he might be worth stashing in case Richardson's health continues to be an issue going forward.

Rudy Gay is a last-minute scratch from Wednesday's game due to personal reasons. It's hard to believe this information didn't start trickling down until right at 8 p.m., which was game time, but that's what happened. Consider Gay day-to-day and look for Quincy Pondexter to start in his place.

Dorell Wright will start on Wednesday with Jason Richardson (back) out. Wright's appeal goes way up with J-Rich riding pine, and he's had two recent games where he's had at least 20 points. He's a great spot start with Richardson out, though his role is much more inconsistent when all of Philly's swingmen are healthy.

Dorell Wright only scored eight points against the Nets on Sunday, adding six rebounds, three steals, one block and two 3-pointers in 29 minutes. Despite the low scoring, the production in steals, boards, blocks and triples makes this a worthwhile line for owners that started him. His minutes have gone down with Jrue Holiday back and he's going to be tough to count on in standard leagues at less than 30 minutes per game.

Dorell Wright scored seven points on 2-of-5 shooting (including a three) with one rebound and two assists in 20 minutes off the bench on Friday. Wright had been productive for two straight games but with Jrue Holiday back it appears he won't have enough juice for most fantasy leagues. We'll let you know if he can get on track in the future.
