Rodriguez agreed to a deal with CSKA Moscow until 2020, freelance reporter David Pick reports.
EDGE Analysis
The former Euroleague MVP will return overseas to continue his professional basketball career. He held a significant role with the 76ers last season, posting 7.8 points and 5.1 assists across 22.3 minutes per game. While the 31-year-old may have been able to garner a small roster spot on an NBA team, it appears that he will be going back overseas to be a legitimate contributor while in the late years of his prime. It seems doubtful at this point, however, that he will return to the NBA.

Rodriguez (hamstring) will not play in any of the team's remaining three games, Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 76ers have opted to shut down the veteran guard due to a nagging hamstring injury. The issue has caused him to miss the previous six games. Rodriguez was a surprise this season, as he returned off a six year absence from the league. He will finish the season with averages averages of 7.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, 5.1 dimes, 0.7 steals, and 1.4 triples across 22.3 minutes per game.

Rodriguez (hamstring) is expected to go through one-on-one drills during the 76ers' practice Friday, Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. "It's feeling better," Rodriguez said of the strained left hamstring that has cost him the last six games. "But the injury is kind of tricky because you never know when you are 100 percent."
EDGE Analysis
Rodriguez's activity should present with the 76ers to formally evaluate him in advance of Saturday's game against the Bucks, but he'll likely need to show he's close to 100 percent healthy to have a shot at playing in the contest. Even if he's cleared to return, Rodriguez's status as the clear backup to starting point guard T.J. McConnell would likely result in him playing no more than 20 minutes Saturday, thereby limiting his DFS upside.

Rodriguez (hamstring) has been ruled out for both Tuesday's game against the Nets and Thursday's game against the Bulls, Jessica Camerato of CSN Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rodriguez was already expected to miss Tuesday's game, but the Sixers are now tacking on at least one more outing before reevaluating him over the weekend. With the season winding down and the Sixers ruled out of playoff contention, there's a growing belief that he could be shut down for the season, although nothing official has been reported indicating such. Look for T.J. McConnell to see a few extra minutes over the next two contests, while Nik Stauskas operates as the backup at both point guard and shooting guard.

Rodriguez (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
After missing the last week of action with the left hamstring strain, Rodriguez is apparently still hurting after the 76ers reevaluated him Monday, so he'll be sidelined for a fifth consecutive game. With only four games remaining on the 76ers' schedule after Tuesday, Rodriguez could be at risk of being sidelined for all of those contests if he fails to show improvement in the coming days. Rodriguez's absence will enable starting point guard T.J. McConnell to pick up a few extra minutes, while Nik Stauskas settles in as the top reserve option at both guard spots.

Rodriguez (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Nets, Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rodriguez recently underwent an MRI to rule out anything more serious and while we have yet to hear the results, the Sixers are going to go ahead and keep him out for Tuesday's contest. With Rodriguez out, Nik Stauskas is expected to serve as both the backup point guard and shooting guard, so he should be in line for an increase in playing time on Tuesday. Rodriguez's next opportunity to play will be Wednesday against the Hawks.

Rodriguez is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nets due to a sore hamstring.
EDGE Analysis
The issue isn't believed to be anything serious, though the 30-year-old underwent a precautionary MRI to ensure he's not dealing with anything more severe. Look for the Sixers to reevaluate Rodriguez closer to tip-off, at which point an official call on his status will be made. If Rodriguez is held out, T.J. McConnell would be set for a heavy workload as the team's only healthy, true point guard.

Rodriguez posted 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt), seven assists, four rebounds and a steal over 22 minutes off the bench in Friday's 117-107 win against the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis
Rodriguez has been seeing a steady amount of playing time in Philly, but he has just eight total double-digit point totals over his past 24 outings. He is a cheap source of assists for fantasy owners in deeper rotisserie formats, but he isn't dependable in most other categories.

Rodriguez supplied five points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), eight assists and three rebounds across 24 minutes in a 112-98 loss to the Bucks on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
With the 76ers down 23 points after three quarters, the team's reserves received some more burn than usual Monday, as Rodriguez matched starting point guard T.J. McConnell in playing time. Rodriguez's spot in the 76ers rotation looks secure for the rest of the season with Ben Simmons (foot) ruled out, but the Spaniard will struggle to bring value outside of deeper leagues, despite his upward trend in playing time lately. He's averaging 7.6 points, 5.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers in 23.2 minutes per game over his last five contests.

Rodriguez generated eight points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt) and four assists across 12 minutes in a 105-99 win over the Hornets on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Rodriguez was quite productive on a per-minute basis, but he's still not seeing enough time to carry value even in most deeper leagues. The Spaniard has seen fewer than 20 minutes in 10 consecutive games, averaging 6.7 points, 2.9 assists, 1.4 three-pointers and 1.3 rebounds during that span. His value will diminish even further once Ben Simmons (foot) returns after the All-Star break.
