Portland Trail Blazers guard Ryan Arcidiacono will move into the starting five for Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Originally, Shaedon Sharpe was supposed to start, but instead he'll come off the bench. The Blazers are without a true point guard, so Arcidiacono will get the call. Fantasy managers shouldn't panic as Sharpe should still have a significant role in this game. Between the two, Sharpe is the much better streaming choice for Thursday's slate. Cam Reddish and Matisse Thybulle should have bigger roles as well, but are more deep league options.
Chicago Bulls guard Ryan Arcidiacono (Achilles) was able to get through portions of Monday's practice. He has missed each of the last two games due to a right Achilles issue. There's a chance that Arcidiacono is able to return for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Fantasy owners will have to wait until after Tuesday's shootaround for more information. Shaquille Harrison would lose playing time and streaming appeal if Arcidiacono returns on Tuesday.
Chicago Bulls guard Ryan Arcidiacono (Achilles) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. An Achilles issue is a fairly significant injury, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Arcidiacono miss more time. Shaquille Harrison has played well lately and deserves a look in deep leagues while the Bulls are banged up at guard. Harrison dropped 25 points on Friday, so he's on the radar for fantasy leagues.
Chicago Bulls guard Ryan Arcidiacono scored zero points in 29 minutes during Chicago's 96-90 road loss to the Indiana Pacers. Arcidiacono put together back-to-back 22-point performances towards the end of November but has averaged only four points in his previous three games. Kris Dunn (knee) has started going through full-contact workouts and will remove any value that Arcidiacono has once he returns. Consider the 24-year-old a late-round streamer as of right now, but his time is coming to an end here shortly.
Ryan Arcidiacono Knocks Down Career-High Five Treys
Chicago Bulls point guard Ryan Arcidiacono tied his season high with 22 points on 6-for-12 shooting from the floor, 5-for-9 from beyond the arc and 5-for-5 at the free throw line in Wednesday's loss to the Bucks. He added five rebounds, four assists along with five steals in 38 minutes. The 24-year-old set career marks in three-pointers and steals.

Chicago Bulls point guard Ryan Arcidiacono scored a career-high 22 points against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday, but he needed 24 for his team to get the win. Arcidiacono found the ball in his hands as the clock neared zeroes, resulting in his game-winning attempt clanking off the rim. From a fantasy perspective, it was still a sensational night, especially on the heels of his scoreless 34-minute outing Saturday. He reached 22 points due in large part to four made threes, the second time he has accomplished that feat this season. Most importantly moving forward, he has now logged better than 30 minutes per game in five straight contests, so if you value court time, Arcidiacono is worth the add.
Chicago Bulls guard Ryan Arcidiacono scored 14 points on 5-for-7 shooting in Wednesday's win over the Phoenix Suns. The second-year guard made four of his six attempts from three and also added three assists, three rebounds, and a pair of steals. Arcidiacono has had a consistent amount of playing time recently, but that hasn't translated into consistent production, and he's a risk if fantasy owners turn to him against the Heat on Friday.

He played at least 30 minutes for the fourth consecutive game, snatching a career-high eight rebounds, while adding eight points and three assists. While Shaquille Harrison impressed in his time off the bench, it appears Arcidiacono has a stronghold on the starting point guard duties for the time being.
Chicago Bulls guard Ryan Arcidiacono will draw another start against the Dallas Mavericks on Monday. Head coach Fred Hoiberg says he plans to use the same point guard rotation from Saturday's game. Shaq Harrison will come off the bench behind Arcidiacono and Cameron Payne is out of the rotation. Arcidiacono is worth a look in deeper leagues.
