Cristiano Da Silva Felicio Gets The Chance To Shine
Chicago Bulls power forward Cristiano Da Silva Felicio had a decent game Friday night against the Charlotte Hornets. Felicio scored nine points going 3-for-6 from the floor with seven boards. Felicio seemed to be the biggest benefactor of the injury to Bulls power forward Bobby Portis getting the most playing time of any Bulls front-court player. The problem though for most Bulls players is not getting the opportunities to shine with Bulls point guard Kris Dunn also out with an injury. Currently, the Bulls are using point guard Zach LaVine to initiate the offense and is more of a volume scorer and doesn't distribute the ball well enough to make Felicio a decent play for DFS players.
Cristiano Da Silva Felicio Records Double-Double Against Brooklyn
Chicago Bulls center Cristiano Da Silva Felicio continued his strong rebounding in Saturday's loss to Brooklyn. Felicio now has grabbed eight or more boards in six straight games after his 11 rebound effort in the loss. The Brazilian center also scored 14 points on 5-for-11 shooting. The Bulls play the Nets again on Monday. Brooklyn has allowed more rebounds per game to their opponents than any other NBA team, which gives Felicio some DFS upside in that contest.
Chicago Bulls center Cristiano Da Silva Felicio recorded 16 rebounds in Friday's win over the Orlando Magic. Felicio, who has recently moved into the Bulls starting lineup, also scored eight points. The center scored double-digit points in five straight games earlier in the week, but his scoring has been inconsistent overall this year. The Bulls play the Wizards on Sunday, a team that allows the 12th fewest rebounds per game this season. Felicio isn't a great fantasy option.
