| The 76ers will convert Council's two-way deal to a four-year, $7.4 million standard NBA contract Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. The Scoop:As a two-way player, Council has split time between the 76ers and the G League's Delaware Blue Coats this season. For the 76ers, the 22-year-old guard has averaged 5.5 points and 1.4 rebounds in 9.1 minutes across 31 appearances. Now that he's been upgraded from his two-way deal, Council is eligible to play in postseason contests for the 76ers, though he's not expected to be a regular part of head coach Nick Nurse's rotation.

| Near double-double in defeat Near double-double in defeat The Scoop: Council posted a team-high rebound total while ending as one of two players with 30 or more points in a near-double-double performance in Thursday's postseason loss. Over 11 G League games this season, Council averaged 23.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists over 32.0 minutes per contest. Apr 4 10:20 ET |
| Leads team to playoff victory Leads team to playoff victory The Scoop: Council's efficient shooting helped him record a team-high 28 points. Council also made a strong defensive impact, leading Delaware in blocks and steals. Apr 2 10:12 ET |
| Efficient in loss to Boston Council ended with 16 points (6-8 FG, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 19 minutes during Tuesday's 117-99 loss to Boston. The Scoop: Council has been finding ways to make his presence felt off the bench for the Sixers, and on a team that's in dire need of a second-unit scoring punch, his contributions have been well-received. Council has scored in double digits in four of his last nine appearances, and while he can't be trusted for sustained numbers due to the nature of his role, he's making a case to see more minutes in the short-term picture.

| Surprises as scoring leader in loss Council racked up 17 points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT) over 10 minutes during Wednesday's 127-104 loss to the Warriors. The Scoop: Council came into Wednesday having played in just nine contests this season while spending most of his time in the G League, so his 17-point outburst in just 10 minutes against Golden State came out of nowhere. Granted, most of the rookie's run came in garbage time, but his effort still may have turned some heads, especially given the 76ers' recent struggles in the wake of losing Joel Embiid for an extended period due to a knee injury. Council is shooting 53.8 percent from the field and averaging 31.0 points per 36 minutes in the NBA this season, though the sample size is obviously too small to draw reliable conclusions from.
