Beverley ended Sunday's 126-98 win over the Trail Blazers with four points (2-3 FG), two rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal over 20 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Beverley played a season-high 20 minutes during the blowout win and recorded his first defensive statistics of the campaign. Despite modest production, the veteran point guard figures to be a key part of Philadelphia's rotation, especially with James Harden (personal/conditioning) unavailable.

Beverley posted 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 14 minutes during Sunday's 114-106 preseason loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
With James Harden (personal) unavailable, Beverley drew the start alongside Tyrese Maxey in Philadelphia's backcourt and delivered quality production in limited action. However, if Harden remains with the 76ers to open the 2023-24 regular season, Beverley will presumably be relegated to a backup role.

The 76ers signed Beverley on Saturday to a one-year contract, PatBevPod reports.
EDGE Analysis
While the terms of the agreement have yet to be announced, Beverley could find himself in the starting point guard role if James Harden is ultimately traded. The veteran point guard is a good perimeter defender and averaged 6.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.9 assists in 27.1 minutes across 67 games for the Lakers and Bulls in 2022-23.

Beverley had zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds and four assists over 27 minutes during Friday's 102-91 Play-In Game loss to the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Beverley couldn't lift his team to victory Friday, failing to score in 27 minutes. The veteran guard was unable to provide his usual spark, allowing the Heat to roll over the top of the Bulls down the stretch. Looking ahead, Beverley is no spring chicken, meaning his days of being a fantasy-relevant player may be coming to an end, no matter his role next season.

Beverley (rest) is not listed in the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Beverley missed Friday's game against the Mavericks due to rest, but he is not listed in the injury report ahead of Sunday's game, so he should be available. A minutes restriction can't be ruled out, considering the Bulls will face the Raptors in the Play-In Tournament on Wednesday.

Beverley is out for Friday's game versus the Mavericks due to rest, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Beverley will sit out Friday's game with the Bulls locked into 10th place in the Eastern Conference. Coby White and Ayo Dosunmu will likely receive extended minutes in his absence. Beverley's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Detroit.

Beverley tallied eight points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt), seven assists, five rebounds, four steals and one block in 28 minutes in Wednesday's 105-92 loss to the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Beverley paid off handsomely for those that streamed him for defensive stats, and he even came through with his second-best assist total since he joined the Bulls in mid-February. Since the Bulls are locked in as the Eastern Conference's No. 10 seed, head coach Billy Donovan told K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago after Wednesday's game that all of Zach LaVine, Nikola Vucevic and DeMar DeRozan could be candidates to rest Friday in Dallas. Donovan omitted Beverley from that group, so it's possible the veteran guard could be thrust into a more expanded role Friday if he plays. On the other hand, it's possible that Beverley could be active but play more limited minutes than usual, so he'll still carry an element of risk as a streaming option.

Beverley produced zero points (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 25 minutes during Wednesday's 121-110 loss to the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
If Austin Reaves doing the "too small" celebration wasn't bad enough, Beverley also failed to score for the second time in his last five outings. He is averaging 4.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.0 steals on a 28.6 field-goal percentage over that stretch. Beverley's only true fantasy value is if your team desperately needs steals.

Beverley chipped in zero points (0-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists over 19 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
Beverley failed to score for the first time since Feb. 26 and played the fewest minutes of any Chicago starter Wednesday. He is averaging 6.1 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.9 assists across his last 10 appearances. Beverley is also shooting just 40.4 percent from the field over that span.

Beverley totaled three points (1-7 FG, 1-6 3Pt), 11 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 117-114 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Beverley's shooting tailed off considerably after he put up 16 points on 6-for-7 shooting from the field in the Bulls' previous game Saturday against the Rockets, but he managed to pull down double-digit boards for the second straight contest. He paired the rebound production with solid numbers in the defensive categories, which helped make up for the poor shooting and lackluster assist total. Beverley is averaging 5.6 points, 6.9 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.0 three-pointers, 0.9 blocks and 0.6 steals in 28.7 minutes per game through his first nine outings with the Bulls. While his overall production isn't outstanding, it's enough to make him a roster-worthy player in 14-team leagues depending on a manager's needs.
