Description: Sixers center Spencer Hawes torched the Pacers for 18 points and 16 rebounds Saturday in Philadelphia. | Insight: You never know which Hawes you're going to get do you? Wednesday against the Heat he looked terrible (six points, five rebounds, two turnovers). But the game before that he was brilliant in a win over Brooklyn (24 points, 10 boards). Hawes is not for the feint of heart. | | |
| 3/3/2013 9:01:00 PM |

Thursday he was much more aggressive and the result was a pretty good fantasy day. Unfortunately for Collins the Sixers didn't fare any better, dropping their sixth game in a row. | | |
| 2/4/2013 10:02:00 PM |
Description: Philadelphia center Spencer Hawes racked up 21 points and 14 rebounds Monday in a win over the Magic. | Insight: Thaddeus Young's injury bought Hawes a little extra playing time and the 24-year-old took full advantage.

| 1/8/2013 9:27:00 PM |
Description: Sixers center Spencer Hawes scored 14 points with four assists and two blocks in 24 minutes Tuesday against the Nets. | Insight: It was a strong follow-up performance to Hawes' season-high 22 points on Jan. 5. Despite Andruw Bynum not playing this entire season, Hawes hasn't started a game and is only averaging 23 mpg. His output -- 9.6 ppg, 5.9 reb, 1.5 ast, 1.2 blk -- is decent but probably not enough to warrant a roster spot in fantasy leagues. | | |

Description: Sixers PF/C Spencer Hawes had a season-high 22 points (10-of-13 FG) Saturday against the San Antonio. | Insight: Hawes is averaging 9.5 ppg, 6.0 rpg this season, but with Andrew Bynum and Kwame Brown sidelined, he's been seeing close to 30 minutes of playing time of late and has put up decent numbers. | | |

He's still splitting center minutes with Kwame Brown and Lavoy Allen, however, which limits his value. | | |
| 11/27/2012 11:38:00 AM |
Description: Sixers PF/C Spencer Hawes is probable for Tuesday's game against Dallas. He's been dealing with a sprained left knee. | Insight: The 7-foot-1 Hawes has been limited to about 20 minutes-per-game which keeps him from being fantasy worthy.

Description: Sixers power forward Spencer Hawes had a monster game Wednesday night against the Nuggets. He finished the evening with 16 points, 12 rebounds, five blocks and two steals. | Insight: The 7-foot-1 Hawes overpowered Denver in the low post. It's possible that Hawes, who came off the bench, could bump Thaddeus Young (13 points, five rebounds in 36 minutes) out of the starting lineup if he continues to perform like this. | | |

Hawes led Philadelphia with 22 points while also chipping in with eight rebounds. | Insight: It was the second game in a row that Hawes was able to reach 20 points. During the regular season Hawes averaged just 9.6 ppg so clearly he is playing some of his best basketball of the season right now. | | |

Description: Spencer Hawes played his second game since returning from an Achilles injury, but a strict minutes-limit set by coach Doug Collins is being enforced and Hawes will have difficulty posting big fantasy numbers. | Insight: Hawes isn't be allowed to play in back-to-back games for the first 10 days and will be limited to just five-minute stretches at a time. Under these rules, Hawes has very little fantasy value. | | |

Description: Spencer Hawes figures to be back with Philadelphia next year.
SOURCE: Philadelphia Inquirer | Insight: Hawes has a team option of $4.1 million for next year and the Sixers really have no reliable big coming up behind him. Craig Brackins is expected to get a bigger role and it doesn't look like Marreese Speights is going to pan out. | | |
