Gerald Henderson underwent hip surgery on Thursday.

Henderson has been dealing with nagging hip pain for over five years and finally decided he wanted to have the hip operated on. According to his agent, Henderson will start rehab as early as next week in preparation for his return to the NBA. Henderson is still a free agent, so he'll have to convince a team he is healthy enough to play once he gets close to 100%. He won't have fantasy relevance anytime in the near future.

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (hip) will have hip surgery and could miss the entire 2017-18 season, according to Chris Haynes of ESPN.com.

He just hasn't been able to shake this hip injury, which has bothered him for most of this decade. Henderson was waived last month and is an unrestricted free agent, so chances are a team won't be looking to add him until he shows he's healthy. Henderson is still only 29, but the frequent injuries suggest he only has a handful of useful seasons left in his NBA career.

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Sixers waive G/F Gerald Henderson.

The 29-year-old wing had a solid year as a veteran presence on the young Philly team, averaging 9.2 points per game in his 72 outings. The 76ers added a lot of talent and figure to make a splash in free agency with another wing, so Henderson could wind up as a bench vet on another team.

Jun 30 - 5:14 PM

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

The 76ers still haven't decided if they will pick up Gerald Henderson's $9 million team option for 2017-18.

The 76ers only have a few roster spots open and are hoping to make a splash in free agency, so they are likely leaning towards declining it. The 76ers have been linked to shooting guards such as J.J. Redick and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and they already have several interesting young SGs in Timothe Luwawu, Justin Anderson and Furkan Korkmaz. The deadline is Friday, but expect Henderson to fine a new home in 2017-18.

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

76ers reporter Tom Moore said there's a "good chance" the team will decline Gerald Henderson's option for next season.

The 76ers are now expected to bring over draft-and-stash prospect Furkan Korkmaz next season and they already have Robert Covington, Timothe Luwawu and Nik Stauskas, so it makes sense for them to move on from Henderson since he's owed a non-guaranteed $9 million in 2017-18. The 29-year-old veteran averaged 9.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.8 3-pointers in 23.2 minutes per game last season.

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson played 30 minutes off the bench in Philly's finale, scoring four points on 2-of-4 shooting with three assists and one steal.

It was a fittingly quiet finish for the veteran SG. His $9 million contract isn't guaranteed until June and it's a certainty that Philly will cut him loose, even though they like him as a mentor for their young guys. Henderson doesn't have a fantasy-friendly game, making him a tough sell in any situation.

Apr 12 - 10:54 PM

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson finished with six points, two rebounds, an assist and a steal in 23 minutes off the bench before being ejected Monday against the Pacers.

Henderson tossed an errant elbow at Paul George and both players were ejected after the incident. While George is likely good to go for Wednesday's game and the playoffs, Henderson's status is a bit murky for the regular season finale against the Knicks.

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (hip) is available on Thursday vs. the Bulls.

Henderson has been listed as probable for four straight games, but has played in all of them. The 76ers are short-handed at the moment, but it wouldn't be surprising if Henderson picked up a DNP-rest soon. He's not a fantasy option in most formats.

Apr 6 - 12:33 PM

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (hip) played 18 minutes on Tuesday vs. the Nets, scoring nine points with two rebounds, one assist and one triple.

Henderson has been listed as probable for four straight games, but he played in each one of them. He's due for a DNP at some point, so leave him on the wire.

Apr 4 - 10:50 PM

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (hip) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game vs. Brooklyn.

Henderson has been listed as probable and then played in each of the Sixers last three games. However, he is averaging just 7.3 points and 2.9 rebounds in 19.0 minutes over the last month. He belongs on waivers.

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (sore left hip) finished Sunday's road loss with 12 points, four rebounds, two steals and a pair of 3-pointers in 18 minutes off the bench.

The veteran continues to defy the odds as a staple of the Sixers' youthful rotation. He's basically an on-court coach and his role isn't conducive to fantasy value.

Apr 2 - 8:47 PM

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (left hip soreness) is probable for Sunday's game vs. the Raptors.

The veteran logged 19 minutes after being deemed 'probable' for Friday's game, so we're likely to see a similar workload tonight.

Apr 2 - 4:36 PM

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (sore hip) is probable for Friday's game vs. the Cavs.

Henderson is averaging 6.2 points and shooting just 27.9 percent from the floor in 17.9 minutes over his last six games. He should be left on waivers in all leagues.

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (sore hip) played 22 minutes during Wednesday's home loss, scoring five points with four rebounds, two assists, one steal, one 3-pointer and three turnovers.

Henderson's shot wasn't falling tonight, as he went just 2-of-10 from the field with one 3-pointer, and he also turned the ball over three times. The Sixers had nine players on their active roster tonight and Henderson is the rare veteran to stick in the rotation on a young, rebuilding team, but he's still not a fantasy asset.

Mar 29 - 10:18 PM

Gerald Henderson - G/F - 76ers

Gerald Henderson (hip) is probable to play against the Hawks on Wednesday.

He'll be coming off the bench and the 76ers should take a long look at Justin Anderson in the starting lineup. Henderson isn't worth owning as the 76ers may look at their young guys more than they have before this point.

Depth Charts

All Positions
Pos	Role	Name
PG	1	Markelle Fultz
	2	T.J. McConnell
	3	Jerryd Bayless Sidelined The 76ers expect Jerryd Bayless (wrist surgery) to be ready for training camp, according to beat writer Tom Moore. Bayless will resume scrimmaging this summer and should be ready for opening night, which is good news for Philly since they owe him a guaranteed $17.6 million through 2019. T.J. McConnell played well last season, however, and Ben Simmons will be assuming PG duties, so it's hard to expect anything from Bayless in fantasy leagues. May 31
SG	1	J.J. Redick
	2	Timothe Luwawu Sidelined Timothe Luwawu has been ruled out of Eurobasket 2017 with the French National Team after picking up a knee injury at camp. He was diagnosed with patellar tendinopathy, but it's more commonly known as Jumper's Knee. There's no real reason to be concerned and TLC should be fine with a couple weeks of rest. The 76ers didn't do him any favors this offseason by bringing in J.J. Redick and Furkan Korkmaz, so TLC won't be a standard-league fantasy target on draft day despite a strong finish to the 2016-17 season. Jul 31
	3	Nik Stauskas
SF	1	Robert Covington Sidelined Brett Brown said he sees Robert Covington "starting and ending" games for the 76ers this season. The 76ers will likely be rolling out a starting five of Markelle Fultz, J.J. Redick, Covington, Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid (knee) when the 2017-18 season begins, with Dario Saric being used in a sixth man type role. Covington should be able to score at a more efficient rate this season with the improved offense around him, and it sounds like he'll still be a significant part of the rotation, so he could turn out to be one of the better value picks towards the middle rounds on draft day. Sep 20
	2	Justin Anderson
	3	Furkan Korkmaz
PF	1	Ben Simmons
	2	Dario Saric
	3	Amir Johnson
	4	James Michael McAdoo
C	1	Joel Embiid Sidelined Joel Embiid (knee) has yet to go through any 5-on-5 work and head coach Brett Brown said he's not sure what Embiid will be able to do when training camp opens up next week. 76ers' GM Bryan Colangelo made it clear that Embiid has not suffered any setbacks in his recovery from the arthroscopic procedure that he underwent on his left knee back in March, but it's a bit strange that Embiid has still not been cleared for contact a full six months removed from what is traditionally just a 4-6 week recovery period. Colangelo also said it's too early to tell when Embiid will be able to scrimmage, so it sounds like he'll be entering camp at less than 100 percent, and there's a chance he might not be ready for the preseason. Sep 20
	2	Richaun Holmes
	3	Jahlil Okafor Sidelined 76ers coach Brett Brown said Jahlil Okafor will get "every opportunity to earn playing time." Keep in mind that Brown also said the 76ers are still gauging trade interest from around the league, so don't be surprised if they showcase him early on. Okafor has slimmed down significantly and has been playing some 3-on-3 which suggests his knee is 100 percent entering camp. Joel Embiid's status for opening night is up in the air, but Richaun Holmes should have an edge over Okafor on the depth chart after his monster finish to the 2016-17 season. Unless Embiid is on the shelf right out of the gate, Okafor likely needs a trade to have any real value. Sep 21
