The 76ers assigned Edwards to the G League's Delaware Blue Coats on Saturday, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards was a healthy DNP for the 76ers' 130-119 win over the Knicks on Saturday. He should get more reps in the G League, and his lone appearance with the Blue Coats came in a win against the Capital City Go-Go on Dec. 16, when he finished with 37 points, four rebounds, one assist and six steals over 40 minutes.

Edwards supplied 12 points (4-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one block in 20 minutes during Sunday's 129-104 loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Joel Embiid's (ankle) absence opened up some breathing room in the rotation, and Edwards made the most of his opportunity this time. The forward has had a tough season overall, posting averages of 5.4 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.7 steals and 1.1 three-pointers on 37.0 percent shooting from the field in 16.4 minutes across 27 appearances.

Philadelphia recalled Edwards from the G League's Delaware Blue Coats on Tuesday, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards was assigned to the Blue Coats on Monday and played in their 120-110 G League win over the Capital City Go-Go on Tuesday, when he tallied a game-high 37 points (13-21 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT) along with four rebounds, one assist and six steals over 40 minutes. He's seen his playing time at the NBA level diminish as of late even in the absence of Kelly Oubre (knee), who has been sidelined since mid-November.

The 76ers assigned Edwards to the G League's Delaware Blue Coats on Monday, Derek Bodner of AllPHLY.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards has fallen out of favor in the Philadelphia rotation recently, as he didn't see the floor at all during the Dec. 7 loss to the Lakers. However, a move to the G League should increase his reps for the time being.

Edwards is not in the 76ers' starting lineup against the Nets on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards will revert to a bench role Friday after Paul George (ankle) was cleared to return. Edwards started in each of the 76ers' last four games, and over that span he averaged 8.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.8 steals over 27.0 minutes per game.

Edwards returned to Tuesday's game against the Magic with 3:41 remaining in the third quarter, per the broadcast.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards sustained an apparent foot injury earlier in the quarter, though he returned to the court shortly thereafter. He'll likely be good to go for the remainder of the game after checking back in.

Edwards exited to the locker room after sustaining an apparent foot injury in the third quarter of Tuesday's game against the Magic, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Sixers lost Trenton Watford to an adductor injury in the second quarter, and now they might lose Edwards, another player who's been a serviceable contributor. Edwards has been a regular starter for the Sixers of late, and this game against the Magic was his fourth straight appearance in the first unit. He can be considered questionable to return until further notice.

Edwards posted seven points (3-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals across 32 minutes during Sunday's 127-117 loss to the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards made his third straight start due to the absence of Kelly Oubre (knee) and filled the stat sheet, providing two steals and two blocks in his 32 minutes. Edwards' minutes and usage have been trending upwards since being elevated to the starting lineup, and with Oubre out for a couple more weeks, the former may see himself in the starting lineup for the time being.

Edwards logged eight points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal over 23 minutes during the 76ers' 121-112 loss to the Raptors on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Edwards was inserted into the 76ers' starting lineup Wednesday for the second time this season due to the absences of Paul George (knee) and Kelly Oubre (knee). Edwards did all of his scoring in the first half, though his playing time dipped in the second half, as Quentin Grimes started the third quarter ahead of the former. Edwards averaged 15.2 minutes per game before Wednesday's contest, and he will likely revert to a reserve role against the Bucks on Thursday if George is cleared to play.

Edwards is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Raptors, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Joining Edwards in the first unit for Wednesday's game will be Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, Dominick Barlow and Andre Drummond. Edwards can be viewed as a low-end streaming option in deep leagues for those seeking a cheap source of triples.
