Henderson tallied 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes in a 98-97 win over the Knicks on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson has transitioned to a bench role since returning last week from a three-game absence due to a hip injury, but he hasn't really lost out on playing time. In fact, with starting shooting guard Nik Stauskas struggling to produce Wednesday, Henderson saw more minutes of the two, and turned in his second double-digit scoring performance in three games. Henderson shouldn't have much trouble maintaining his season average of 9.7 points per game the rest of the way, but because his production in other categories is fairly muted, there's not much fantasy upside to be mined here.

Henderson (hip) returned to the court and totaled 18 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block across 29 minutes during a 110-106 loss to the Celtics on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson looked good as he came off the bench for the first time this season in his return from a three-game absence. Nik Stauskas got his fourth straight start at shooting guard, but was considerably outplayed by Henderson. It won't be surprising if Henderson is reinserted into the starting lineup Sunday against the Nets after this performance.

Henderson (hip) will come off the bench Friday against the Celtics, Jessica Camerato of CSN Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Brett Brown indicated that Henderson won't face any minute restrictions as he returns from a three-game absence due to a sore left hip, but he'll be forced to settle for bench duties for the first time all season after starting at shooting guard in each of his previous 29 appearances. It looks like the Brown could be willing to give Nik Stauskas an extended trial as the starting shooting guard in light of his superior three-point shooting, though to his credit, Henderson has knocked down a career-best 38.5 percent of his attempts from distance this season.

Henderson (hip) will play in Friday's game against the Celtics, Jessica Camerato of Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson hasn't played in the 76ers past three games and it's unclear what his role will be in his first game back. Given that he won't be given any sort of minutes restriction, it's reasonable to expect that he'll see his usual minutes share, which has been 24.6 minutes per game. Nik Stauskas could see a reduction in time with Henderson returning.

Henderson (hip) participated in practice Thursday and is probable to play against the Celtics on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson has been battling a sore hip, one that required previous surgeries in 2011 and 2015. The starting shooting guard re-injured his hip Dec. 26 against the Kings, when he had to exit the game early due to aggravation. Since then, he's missed three straight games, however he is looking to make his return Friday as he seems to be nearing full recovery. If Henderson remains out for a fourth game, Nik Stauskas could be expected to start at shooting guard.

Henderson (hip) will sit out Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Tom Moore of Calkins Media reports.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson entered Tuesday with a probable designation, but he apparently didn't progress as expected throughout the day and will now sit out a third straight game while dealing with left hip soreness. Look for Nik Stauskas to draw another start at shooting guard, after averaging 9.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.5 three-pointers over 31.5 minutes during the Sixers' last two contests without Henderson. Following Tuesday, the Sixers don't play until Friday against the Celtics, which could give Henderson enough time to make a full recovery.

Henderson (hip) has been downgraded to questionable for Tuesday's tilt with the Timberwolves, Derek Bodner of PhillyMag.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson was previously ruled probable for the game as he nurses some soreness in his hip. Look for a decision to come right before tip during team warmups. If he does play, he could see his minutes closely monitored, in which case Nik Stauskas could see increased minutes off the bench.

Henderson (hip) is considered probable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Tom Moore of Calkins Media reports.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson's left hip injury has kept him sidelined for back-to-back games, but he figures to return to the starting lineup Tuesday with Nik Stauskas and Hollis Thompson returning to their usual back-up roles shooting guard.

Henderson has been ruled out for both Thursday's game against the Jazz, as well as Friday's matchup with the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson left Monday's game against the Kings with pain in his left hip, the same hip he had surgery on in both 2011 and 2015. Considering his history with the injury, the Sixers aren't going to take any chances and they'll keep him sidelined for Thursday and Friday. That means Henderson will have almost a week off for rest and recovery before a matchup with the Timberwolves next Tuesday. In his absence, Nik Stauskas and Hollis Thompson should take on bigger roles in the backcourt.

Coach Brett Brown said he wouldn't be surprised if Henderson (hip) ended up missing Thursday's game against the Jazz, Jessica Camerato of CSN Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Henderson was forced from Monday's loss to the Kings after dealing with pain in his left hip and it appears as though he'll need a few additional days off for rest. The Sixers are going into a back-to-back set Thursday and Friday, so coach Brett Brown likely doesn't want to overwork Henderson, who's dealing with some discomfort. We should hear a final word on his status following Wednesday's practice or Thursday's morning shootaround, but as it currently stands, Henderson doesn't seem likely to play. Nik Stauskas and Hollis Thompson would likely pick up some of the slack at shooting guard if Henderson is ultimately ruled out.
