Description: Sixers small forward Dorell Wright had 15 points, four assists, two rebounds and three triples Sunday against the Cavs. | Insight: Wright has been getting decent playing time over the past two months and is averaging 12.3 ppg since the start of March. | | |

Description: Sixers small forward Dorell Wright is questionable for Saturday's game against Miami. He's out with an elbow injury. | Insight: Wright's thin frame prevents him from being a force on the glass. With that said, he has provided fantasy owners with decent scoring and three-point shooting off the bench. | | |

Description: Sixers small forward Dorell Wright won't be in the lineup Friday against the Hawks. He's out with an elbow injury. | Insight: Wright's thin frame prevents him from being a force on the glass, hence his anemic rebounding rate over the last five games (just 2.0 rpg). With that said, he has provided fantasy owners with decent scoring, even if his success rate from the field hasn't been especially high (39.3 percent for the season). | | |

Description: Philadelphia forward Dorell Wright had 14 points with three treys Wednesday versus Milwaukee and is averaging 18.3 points and 3.7 threes over his last three games. | Insight: Wright has finally received extra minutes this month and he has capitalized with averages of 13.5 ppg and 2.5 3pt in 15 March games. | | |

Description: Philadelphia forward Dorell Wright came through with 20 points off the bench Wednesday night in Atlanta. | Insight: Don't get too excited. Wright only shot 6-of-16 from the field. It's not all bad, though. The fact that Wright played 32 minutes (well above his season average of 21.5 mpg) shows that head coach Doug Collins has confidence in him. Perhaps Wright's heavy Wednesday workload is a sign of things to come. | | |

Description: Sixers guard-forward Dorell Wright is averaging 14 points and three threes in his last two games. | Insight: Wright is getting more minutes with Nick Young sidelined. He's a decent short-term add if you need some points, rebounds and threes. | | |
| 1/5/2013 9:22:00 AM |
Description: Sixers guard-forward Dorell Wright has scored 35 points on just 23 shot attempts (8-16 3PT) over the last three games. | Insight: Wright just doesn't get enough shots when Jason Richardson is active. While Wright would likely start if Richardson had to miss an extended period of time, 76ers coach Doug Collins tends to go to Nick Young more than Wright off the bench when Richardson, Young and Wright are all in the lineup. | | |

Description: Philadelphia forward Dorell Wright will start Friday against the Warriors. SOURCE: Philadelphia 76ers PR Director Michael Preston | Insight: Wright dropped in 28 points with five 3-pointers Wednesday in his first start since Nov. 10 and has scored 20 or more points in three of his last five games. He should be active in all leagues as he proved what he could do with regular playing time in the first seven games of the season. | | |
| Hot | 12/27/2012 9:56:00 AM |
Description: Philadelphia forward Dorell Wright tossed in a season-best 28 points Wednesday in a win over the Grizzlies. | Insight: Wright has scored 20 or more in three of his last five games after failing to reach that mark in his first 24 games of the season. He should continue to have good fantasy value as long as Jason Richardson (strained back) remains out of the lineup. | | |
| 12/26/2012 9:58:00 AM |
Description: Sixers fans will see a big dose of Dorell Wright in Wednesday's game against Memphis with starting shooting guard Jason Richardson out of the lineup. | Insight: Wright averages 12.8 p[pg, 6.3 rpg, 1.5 apg when he's installed into the starting lineup and hits 40 percent from beyond the arc. | | |
| 12/18/2012 11:19:00 PM |
Description: The 76ers have finally turned to Dorell Wright over the last three games and he rewarded their confidence with 25 points on 8-of-18 shooting (7-13 3PT), five rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes Tuesday. | Insight: Wright averaged 12.9 ppg, 6.4 rpg and 2.1 spg with 2.4 3-pointers in 30 minutes per game over his first seven games but hadn't scored in double figures at all while averaging 17 mpg his last 17 games. His playing time will likely decline again when point guard Jrue Holiday returns from a foot sprain and pushes Evan Turner back to small forward. | | |
| 12/4/2012 9:55:00 PM |
Description: Even with Nick Young (toe) out, 76ers guard-forward Dorell Wright only played 16 mpg over the last two games. | Insight: Wright got off to an excellent start and was playing major minutes while Jason Richardson was out. He's been a non-factor since Richardson returned and can be dropped in all leagues. | | |
| 11/16/2012 10:35:00 PM |
Description: Sixers F Dorell Wright only played five minutes off the bench Friday night against the Jazz, scoring zero points on 0-of-2 shooting. | Insight: Wright's minutes have declined in each of the last three games since Jason Richardson returned to the starting lineup from an ankle injury. If this usage rate continues he'll no longer be worth owning in fantasy leagues. | | |
| 11/10/2012 10:03:00 PM |
Description: Sixers F Dorell Wright has scored in double figures five times in six games, including a 15-point effort Saturday against the Raptors. | Insight: Wright has been a stat sheet stuffer thus far, providing owners with 12.7 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals, 0.6 blocks and 2.2 3-pointers per game. He's unlikely to lose much playing time when Jason Richardson returns from an injury, even though he'll probably move back to the bench. | | |
| 11/7/2012 10:48:00 AM |
Description: Sixers small forward Dorell Wright started at SG for the injured Jason Richardson (ankle) against New York Monday night and posted 14 points and nine rebounds. | Insight: Richardson's absence opens up an opportunity for Wright. He is averaging 13 ppg and 8.3 rpg this season and is a nice fantasy value until Richardson returns. | | |
| 11/6/2012 12:30:00 PM |
Description: Sixers small forward Dorell Wright started at SG for the injured Jason Richardson (ankle) against New York Monday night. | Insight: Richardson's absence will open up an opportunity for Wright and Nick Young to become a viable fantasy option. Wright posted 14 points and seven rebounds. Young totaled nine points and three rebound off the bench. | | |
| 11/5/2012 9:54:00 PM |
Description: Sixers forward Dorell Wright started at SF with Evan Turner moving to SG in place of Jason Richardson Monday against the Knicks. Wright scored 14 points with nine rebounds and two 3-pointers in the loss. | Insight: Wright has scored double-digit points in all three games this season while grabbing 8.3 rebounds per game. He should be active in fantasy lineups even when he returns to the bench. | | |
| 11/5/2012 6:06:00 PM |
Description: The 76ers will start Dorell Wright, not Nick Young, in place of Jason Richardson (ankle) Monday. SOURCE: Jeff Skversky, ABC Philadelphia | Insight: Wright is averaging 12.5 ppg with 8.0 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.5 3-pointers in two games this season. He's worth a start while Richardson is out. Young has shot just 5-of-19 in two games but he'll continue to see 25 minutes per game. Starting small forward Evan Turner has also struggled, shooting just 4-of-16. Turner will move to SG with Wright in the lineup. | | |
| 10/17/2012 10:22:00 PM |
Description: Sixers SF Dorell Wright started and scored 17 points in Wednesday's preseason game against the Cavaliers. | Insight: Wright will be coming off the bench this season behind Evan Turner so his fantasy value will be limited, especially since he'll have to share second-unit shots with Nick Young, who scored 19 points Wednesday, and Thaddeus Young, who scored 11 points and grabbed six rebounds. | | |
| 10/16/2012 12:09:00 PM |
Description: Sixers SF Dorell Wright along with SG Jason Richardson should be doing most of the three-point shooting for Philadelphia this season, but Wright will do his off the bench. | Insight: Wright averaged 16.4 points and 5.3 rebounds per game in 82 games in 2010-11, making him a popular target early in drafts last season, but he disappointed with a 10.3 ppg average. If he wants more playing time in Philadelphia, he'll have to play "Doug Collins" type defense not Golden State Warriors defense. He could be a late-round pick with upside. | | |
