Jabari Walker Fantasy Stats

Philadelphia 76ers forward Jabari Walker (knee) exited Saturday's 127-116 win over the Milwaukee Bucks in the third quarter and did not return. Head coach Nick Nurse said the 24-year-old tweaked his left knee but had no further update. Walker recorded six points, three rebounds, one assist and one steal in a season-high 12 minutes while Philadelphia was already short on frontcourt depth. With Joel Embiid expected to rest Sunday against Detroit and several other big men sidelined, Adem Bona could be asked to take on a bigger role after playing 10 minutes Saturday. Walker's status is another one to watch ahead of Sunday's back-to-back finale.

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Jabari Walker (illness) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's tilt against the Sacramento Kings. He has sat out three games while battling an illness. Walker will compete with Trendon Watford for backup minutes in the frontcourt. As a reserve, Walker doesn't have any fantasy appeal, averaging 4.7 points and 3.1 rebounds in 12.3 minutes coming off the bench this season. He may currently have a slightly larger workload due to the absence of Joel Embiid (oblique), Paul George (suspension), and Kelly Oubre Jr. (elbow).

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Jabari Walker intends to sign a new two-year deal with the team, according to Shams Charania of ESPN, after maxing out his games on a two-way contract. The 23-year-old averaged 3.7 points and 3.1 rebounds in 12.1 minutes across 45 games this season. With Paul George suspended, Walker adds depth but will compete with Dominick Barlow and Trendon Watford for reserve minutes. Barlow is still the better deep-league gamble if the minutes settle in his favor, while Walker feels more like extra depth up front than someone you need to add in standard formats.

The Philadelphia 76ers have signed forward Jabari Walker to a two-way deal. Walker is a former second-round pick by the Portland Trail Blazers from 2022. He spent the first three seasons of his career in Portland. Last season, Walker averaged 5.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 0.6 assists across 12.5 minutes per game in 60 contests. Those aren't great numbers, but Walker did average 8.9 points and 7.1 rebounds across 23.5 minutes per game in 2023. He has shown some decent flashes during his career, but figures to only play minutes in the teens with the Sixers. At best, Walker could be a streaming option if the Sixers get banged up at some point.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (concussion) will miss a third consecutive game on Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. He remains in concussion protocol after sustaining a head injury in a matchup against the New York Knicks a week ago. Jerami Grant (knee) has also missed time, which has given Kris Murray more playing time. Murray had a mixed performance on Monday against the Washington Wizards, registering five points, 10 rebounds, three assists, and four steals in 37 minutes, with 25 percent shooting from the field.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (concussion) won't be playing against the Washington Wizards on Monday. Walker has been in the league's concussion protocol, and he will miss his second straight game due to a head injury he suffered in a loss to the Knicks on Wednesday. In his third full season in the NBA, the 22-year-old has made 50 appearances, posting averages of 4.7 and 3.5 rebounds across 11.8 minutes per contest. His next chance to suit up comes on Wednesday against Memphis, but it's unclear if he will be available.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hand) is available to play ahead of Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Walker was tagged as questionable coming into this game due to a hand issue, but is feeling good enough to play now. He'll likely play an increased role with Deni Avdija (quad) remaining sidelined for the second straight game. Walker should be considered a decent low-end streaming option while Avdija is out.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) will be available for Saturday's clash against the Pelicans. The team has upgraded him from a questionable status. Walker returns after missing five games with a right hip inflammation. The 21-year-old was rolling before getting hurt, and it will be interesting to see if he can carry on the momentum Saturday. Walker is certainly in a good position to post a third double-double in five appearances, as Jerami Grant (hamstring) remains out, and his absence leaves a lot of frontcourt minutes to fill.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) was upgraded to questionable heading into Saturday's matchup with the Pelicans. The 2022 No. 57 overall pick has been a critical component of Chauncey Billups' rotation this season, averaging 8.5 and 6.6 rebounds in 22 minutes per contest. He's missed the last five games because of a hip issue and was initially labeled doubtful for the meeting with New Orleans, so he's at least moving in a favorable direction. However, the 21-year-old still has an uphill battle before being cleared. Fortunately, Billups indicated Walker is "getting close," meaning he could be back in the next few games. With Jerami Grant (hamstring) also in line to sit out on Saturday, Toumani Camara and Kris Murray should continue to warrant attention from fantasy managers.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) is on the injury report as doubtful ahead of Saturday's game against New Orleans. The 21-year-old has been out for five games, but Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups noted earlier in the week that Walker's return is getting close. However, Saturday's game might come too soon for Walker. With Jerami Grant (hamstring) also doubtful for Saturday, Toumani Camara and Kris Murray appear set for a busy night. The two youngsters have done well at times, but Saturday's matchup is a tricky one against a very good defensive team.
