76ers' Furkan Korkmaz: Makes rare appearance Friday
Rotowire
Korkmaz closed Friday's 121-82 win over Charlotte with zero points (0-2 FG) across seven minutes.
Korkmaz saw playing time for the third time in the past 18 games, sliding into the rotation with his team in complete control. Despite a proven ability to hit the long ball, Korkmaz doesn't play enough to warrant any real fantasy attention, even in the deepest leagues.

76ers' Furkan Korkmaz: Left off injury report
Rotowire
Korkmaz (personal) isn't on the injury report for Thursday's game versus Memphis.
Korkmaz missed Philadelphia's final two games before the All-Star break due to a personal matter. He wasn't initially listed on the injury report ahead of either of those contests, so his status still remains unclear. Either way, he's fallen out of the rotation of late, so his availability shouldn't have any impact on the rotation moving forward.

76ers' Furkan Korkmaz: Decent line in return
Rotowire
Korkmaz (knee) closed with nine points (3-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 115-106 victory over the Nets.
Korkmaz had missed his team's last three contests due to a knee injury, but he didn't appear to be on any type of restriction Tuesday. He knocked down a new season-high two triples in just his sixth appearance of the 2022-23 campaign. Korkmaz has struggled to carve out a role in the rotation to this point, but he could have an opportunity over the next few games with Matisse Thybulle (ankle), Joel Embiid (foot), James Harden (foot) and Tyrese Maxey (foot) all recovering from injuries.
