P.J. Tucker Stats

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center P.J. Tucker (hip) is available and will start against Atlanta on Thursday. The veteran is dealing with a left hip contusion, but he's probably played through worse ailments in his career and is ready to contribute. Tucker doesn't do a lot for fantasy managers, but he's a big piece for the Sixers, who have already lost one starter in James Harden (foot). The 37-year-old averages around six points and five boards for the season, but he's just had his best outing of the year on the glass with an eight-rebound effort against Phoenix and should look to stay active again on the boards.

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center P.J. Tucker (hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday's trip to Atlanta. The veteran is dealing with left hip contusion and could end up missing his first game of the season. Georges Niang put in an impressive 21-point performance against Phoenix on Monday and could end up getting most of the minutes left over by Tucker if his hip ailment is bad enough that he can't play. Tucker's injury could also help Montrezl Harrell back into the rotation, and the rest of the Sixers starters should stay ready for some heavy minutes.

Philadelphia 76ers forward P.J. Tucker (knee) is expected to be a full participant during training camp. The veteran forward underwent an arthroscopic procedure on his left knee. Despite that, it sounds like Tucker will be completely fine heading into the season. Tucker is expected to be the starting small forward and should have a big role on this roster. Fantasy managers should consider Tucker a late-round flier on draft day. This roster is loaded, but he should be a useful option in 9-cat leagues.

Veteran free-agent forward P.J. Tucker has been a hot name on the market leading up to the 2022 NBA free-agency period. At first, it sounded as if he may be returning to the Miami Heat next season. But now it looks like the Philadelphia 76ers have emerged as the favorites to sign the 37-year-old. According to Bleacher Report's Jake Fischer, "Philadelphia continues to be mentioned as the leader to land Tucker on a widely-discussed deal that could reach as high as three years and $30 million." Fischer also mentioned that the team could be looking to trade fellow wing Matisse Thybulle to clear up both salary cap space and a rotation spot for Tucker.
