Collin Sexton Cleared to Play Sunday

Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (finger) is available for Sunday's regular-season finale against Dallas after being listed as probable. The 27-year-old has started four straight games for a depleted roster, averaging 18.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and 3.3 steals in 30.5 minutes during that span. With multiple key players sidelined, Sexton should continue handling a significant offensive role, making him a strong DFS target. Tre Jones and Rob Dillingham are also positioned for steady minutes and increased usage in the backcourt rotation.

Josh Giddey Still Out Friday

Chicago Bulls point guard Josh Giddey (hamstring) has been listed as out for Friday's contest against the Orlando Magic. He will miss a fourth consecutive game as Giddey manages a left hamstring strain. With him out, Tre Jones and Collin Sexton have led the Bulls' backcourt and remain outstanding fantasy options on Friday. The two combined for 58 points in Thursday's 119-108 win over Washington. Jones has scored at least 20 points in three consecutive games, while Sexton has impressed with a run of three-plus steals in three straight outings.

Collin Sexton Active Against Wizards

Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (finger) is expected to suit up for Thursday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. Sexton was previously listed as probable due to a right finger injury but has since been cleared to play. He profiles as a solid streaming option and should see increased usage tonight, especially given his recent play. Over his last nine games, he is averaging 19.9 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.8 steals in 27.6 minutes per contest.

Josh Giddey to Remain Out on Thursday

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. This marks the third game in a row that Giddey will miss due to a hamstring strain. After Thursday, there are only two games left in the regular season, so we'll see if Giddey is available for either of those contests. Tre Jones should continue seeing an increased role in the rotation while Giddey is out. He finished with 20 points and nine assists across 27 minutes of action during Tuesday's game. Jones is looking like a reliable streaming option while Giddey is banged up.

Matas Buzelis to Miss Third Straight Game

Chicago Bulls forward Matas Buzelis (illness) will officially miss his third game in a row on Thursday. Buzelis will remain sidelined against the Washington Wizards due to a lingering illness. There are only a few games left in the regular season, so it's unclear if Buzelis will play again this season. The continued absence of Buzelis should mean that Leonard Miller keeps getting an extended look in the rotation. The second-year forward finished with 13 points and eight rebounds across 25 minutes of action during Tuesday's game. He figures to be a decent streaming option while Buzelis is out.

Collin Sexton Available on Tuesday

Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (finger) is expected to suit up for Tuesday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. The 27-year-old is averaging 15.3 points, 3.3 assists, and 2.2 rebounds in 23.3 minutes per outing across 64 games this season. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) sidelined, Sexton could take on a larger workload in this contest. He profiles as a solid short-term streaming option given the potential for increased usage.

Matas Buzelis Misses Second Straight Game Due to Illness

Chicago Bulls forward Matas Buzelis (illness) won't play on Tuesday night against the Washington Wizards, missing a second consecutive game. The 21-year-old hasn't overcome an illness, which knocked him out of the lineup over the weekend. Leonard Miller started in Buzelis' place on Sunday against Phoenix, grabbing a game-high 10 rebounds and scoring 17 points. He looks to be a solid option for fantasy managers again on Tuesday, especially given the matchup. In a starting role, Miller has averaged 12.4 points and 7.8 rebounds in 29.1 minutes per game.

Josh Giddey Out on Tuesday

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (hamstring) will miss Tuesday's juicy fantasy matchup against the Washington Wizards. The 23-year-old is managing a left hamstring injury and won't be part of the Bulls' lineup for the third time in four games. Collin Sexton (finger) is expected to make another start on Tuesday night. He has averaged 15.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.2 steals in a starting role this season. Giddey's absence also raises the fantasy ceiling for Tre Jones, who led the Bulls with 29 points in Sunday's 120-110 loss to Phoenix.

Matas Buzelis Out Sunday, Leonard Miller Joins Starting Lineup

Chicago Bulls forward Matas Buzelis (illness) won't play on Sunday against the Phoenix Suns. The 21-year-old has been ruled out due to illness. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) also sidelined, the Bulls will have two new starters on Sunday. Collin Sexton will join Tre Jones in the backcourt, while Leonard Miller will be Buzelis' replacement. Miller has been one of Chicago's best players in recent weeks, and a starting role will further elevate his fantasy value. In seven starts, Miller has posted averages of 11.7 points and 7.4 rebounds per game.

Josh Giddey Won't Play Against Suns

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (hamstring) will miss Sunday's contest against the Phoenix Suns. He has managed a hamstring injury for several weeks and will be absent for the second time in three games. Meanwhile, Collin Sexton (finger) has been cleared to play and will be one of the players benefiting from Giddey's absence. Tre Jones and Rob Dillingham are also expected to pick up extra work in the backcourt. Sexton, who led the team with 19 points in Friday's defeat to New York, figures to form the starting backcourt with Jones on Sunday.

Nick Richards Remains Sidelined Friday, Guerschon Yabusele Will Play

Chicago Bulls center Nick Richards (elbow) will remain out on Friday against the New York Knicks. Chicago has downgraded his status from questionable to out, meaning Richards will miss a fifth consecutive contest. Fortunately for the Bulls. Guerschon Yabusele (ankle) is good to go after initially carrying a questionable tag. He has been solid as a starter in recent games and should have a chip on his shoulder in Friday's game against the Knicks, who barely used him this season and traded him in February.

Josh Giddey, Tre Jones Available Friday

Chicago Bulls guards Josh Giddey (hamstring) and Tre Jones (ankle) will be in action against the New York Knicks on Friday. Both players were listed as questionable on the initial injury report but were upgraded to probable around noon. Giddey will return from a one-game absence, while Jones is ready to make his 22nd straight appearance. The two have performed well as Chicago's starting backcourt duo and will try to outshine Jalen Brunson on Friday night.

Tre Jones • PG • Bulls

Tre Jones Could Miss Friday's Game

Chicago Bulls guard Tre Jones (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks, while Josh Giddey (hamstring) is also on the injury report. If either guard is out, Collin Sexton could see another start after finishing with 18 points, one three-pointer, three rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block in 26 minutes last game. Sexton is averaging 20.4 points, 2.6 three-pointers, and 3.2 assists over his last five games and looks like a solid points streamer. Rob Dillingham may also see increased minutes as a deep-league option.

Josh Giddey Could Sit Again Friday

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (hamstring) is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks, and his status could again affect the Bulls' backcourt rotation. Giddey missed Wednesday's contest, opening the door for Collin Sexton to post 18 points with one three-pointer, three rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block across 26 minutes. Sexton is averaging 20.4 points and 2.6 triples over his last five games and shapes up as a viable streamer if Giddey or Tre Jones (ankle) sits. Rob Dillingham could also see an expanded role. If cleared to play, Giddey remains a firm hold in all formats.

Josh Giddey Sidelined on Wednesday

According to K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network, Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (hamstring) won't play against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday. Giddey was added late to the injury report and will miss his first game since March 5 due to left hamstring tightness. The 23-year-old's next chance to play is against the Knicks on Friday. Rob Dillingham could take on extra minutes with Giddey out of action this evening. The 21-year-old has averaged 8.3 points, 2.9 assists and 2.6 rebounds in 20.3 minutes per outing across 23 appearances since joining the Bulls.

Nick Richards to Miss Third Straight Game

Chicago Bulls center Nick Richards (elbow) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Richards will miss his third game in a row due to a sprained right elbow. This absence should mean that Guerschon Yabusele should draw at least one more start at the center spot. Fantasy managers should consider Yabusele a possible streaming option or cheap DFS choice while Richards is out. Leonard Miller should also see a larger role in the rotation as well. He has scored 10 points or more in nine of his last 10 games. Miller could be worth a look as well for fantasy managers needing help for Monday's slate.

Guerschon Yabusele • PF • Bulls

Guerschon Yabusele is Active on Monday

Chicago Bulls forward/center Guerschon Yabusele (ankle) is available to play ahead of Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Yabusele is back in the mix following a one-game absence due to a left ankle injury. He should continue to see a larger role in the rotation with Nick Richards (elbow) still sidelined. He figures to see 20-plus minutes in the rotation with the Bulls shorthanded at the center spot. He's worth a look in deep leagues and as a possible cheap DFS option for Monday's slate.

Guerschon Yabusele is Absent on Saturday

Chicago Bulls forward Guerschon Yabusele (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Yabusele drew the start on Friday with Nick Richards (elbow) unavailable. Now, both big men are sitting out for Saturday's contest, which puts the Bulls in a bad spot. Possibly, Lachlan Olbrich draws the start, but Patrick Williams and Leonard Miller should absorb most of the extra playing time. Miller is bringing enough to the table right now to warrant a look as a streaming option on Saturday.

Rob Dillingham • PG • Bulls

Rob Dillingham is Available to Play on Friday

Chicago Bulls guard Rob Dillingham (knee) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Dillingham will shed the probable tag and suit up for Friday's contest. The expectation is that Dillingham will play his regular role off the bench. He finished with 12 points and two rebounds across 23 minutes of action on Wednesday. Over the last seven games, Dillingham is averaging 13.1 points, 3.4 assists, and 2.4 rebounds across 23.9 minutes per game. He offers some low-end streaming value, but his upside is limited with the Bulls relatively healthy at the guard spot right now.

Isaac Okoro • SF • Bulls

Isaac Okoro to Suit up on Friday

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Isaac Okoro (knee) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. As expected, Okoro is cleared to play after being listed as probable on the injury report. He made his return to the court after a seven-game absence on Wednesday. Okoro finished with 13 points and two rebounds across 23 minutes of action in that one. The expectation is that he'll have a similar role on Friday. This season, Okoro is averaging 9.1 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.6 assists across 26.9 minutes per game. He could offer deep league streaming value, but Okoro can be ignored in most fantasy formats.
