De'Anthony Melton Hopes To Return On Monday
10 months agoPhiladelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) is targeting Monday's matchup against Dallas for his return. He's been out of the lineup since Jan. 12 and will miss an 11th consecutive game when Philadelphia faces Brooklyn on Saturday. Kelly Oubre Jr. has enjoyed a regular starter's role during Melton's absence, with Patrick Beverley also benefitting from the situation. Oubre Jr. has proven himself to be a productive player even in a bench role, so Melton's return shouldn't affect him much, but Beverley's chances for extra playing time will be hampered with a fully healthy backcourt.
