Top Bulls News

  • Bulls' Javonte Green: Probable Friday

    Green (knee) is probable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Green has been back in action over the last two games after missing nearly three months due to a knee issue, but his playing time was monitored during the Bulls' pair of matchups against the 76ers. While he'll likely be able to suit up again Friday, it wouldn't be surprising to see him continue to face a minutes restriction.

  • Bulls' Alex Caruso: Questionable vs. Portland

    Caruso (foot) is questionable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Caruso was initially expected to be available for Wednesday's game against Philadelphia but sat out a second consecutive game after feeling discomfort in his foot during warmups. While his absence was labeled as precautionary, it's unclear whether he'll be able to suit up against Portland. If he remains out, Coby White will likely see an uptick in minutes once again.

  • Bulls' DeMar DeRozan: Questionable Friday

    DeRozan (quadriceps) is questionable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    DeRozan exited Wednesday's game against Philadelphia due to a right quadriceps strain, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available for Friday's road matchup. He missed five games between January and February due to a similar issue, but the Bulls are also competing for a spot in the play-in tournament down the stretch. If he's sidelined Friday, Javonte Green (knee) and Derrick Jones could see increased run for Chicago.

  • Bulls' Derrick Jones: Scores 10 as reserve

    Jones finished with 10 points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, one block and one steal in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to the 76ers.

    Jones fell out of Chicago's rotation between mid-February and mid-March, but his playing time has increased over the last two matchups, both against the 76ers. The 26-year-old has posted 10 points and three rebounds in each matchup while averaging 17.5 minutes per game. While Jones' uptick in playing time against Philadelphia has been encouraging, it seems unlikely that he'll be a reliable fantasy option late in the regular season.

  • Bulls' Zach LaVine: Struggles against Philadelphia

    LaVine logged 16 points (6-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT) and four assists over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to the 76ers.

    Lavine posted his fewest points total since Feb. 2 in Wednesday's blowout loss. However, fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned, as the star guard averaged 28.8 points, 6.0 assists and 4.6 rebounds in 42.2 minutes across his previous five outings.

  • Bulls' Nikola Vucevic: Held in check Wednesday

    Vucevic ended with eight points (4-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to Philadelphia.

    Vucevic posted six consecutive double-doubles ahead of Wednesday's matchup, but he was unable to find as much success against Philadelphia's strong frontcourt. This was just the fifth time this year that the 32-year-old was held below 10 points, and he'll have a favorable opportunity to bounce back against the Trail Blazers on Friday.

  • Bulls' Patrick Beverley: Minimal impact in loss

    Beverley chipped in zero points (0-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists over 19 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to the 76ers.

    Beverley failed to score for the first time since Feb. 26 and played the fewest minutes of any Chicago starter Wednesday. He is averaging 6.1 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.9 assists across his last 10 appearances. Beverley is also shooting just 40.4 percent from the field over that span.

  • Bulls' Andre Drummond: Gets added playing time in blowout

    Drummond chipped in 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-2 FT), 12 rebounds, two blocks and one assist over 17 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to Philadelphia.

    Drummond delivered an efficient double-double in a matchup with one of his former teams, but it's difficult to put too much stock in his stat line, given that the 76ers raced out to a 28-point halftime lead that resulted in lower minutes for all of the Bulls' starters aside from Zach LaVine. The veteran center hadn't exceeded 14 minutes in any of Chicago's previous seven contests and was limited to six- and seven-minute workloads in the prior two games leading up to Wednesday, so it's best to view Drummond's outing versus Philadelphia as an outlier rather than one that he'll be able to frequently replicate.

  • Bulls' Coby White: Leads team with 19 points

    White logged 19 points (8-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to Philadelphia.

    White led the way for the Bulls in the scoring column, with the early exit of DeMar DeRozan (quadriceps) and the blowout nature of the contest affording him some extended run on the second unit. DeRozan and Alex Caruso (foot) could both be sidelined for the Bulls' next game Friday in Portland, but even if that's the case, White may still struggle to reach 30 minutes if that contest is more competitive than Wednesday's.

  • Bulls' DeMar DeRozan: Won't return Wednesday

    DeRozan suffered a right quad strain and will not return to Wednesday's game, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

    This is the same injury that cost DeRozan five games from January-February, so for now, he should be considered questionable at best for Friday's game in Portland. The good news is that DeRozan was able to walk off the court under his own power, and the lopsided score may have played a role in his early exit, as the Bulls were down by 20-plus points, and DeRozan was having a terrible game. If he needs to miss time, Ayo Dosunmu could return to the first unit, and it would be Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic doing the heavy lifting on offense.

  • Bulls' Alex Caruso: Won't play Wednesday

    Despite earlier reports of his availability, Caruso won't play in Wednesday's game versus the 76ers due to left foot discomfort, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

    Caruso felt discomfort in his foot during warmups and will sit due to an "abundance of caution." Coby White will likely continue to receive extended minutes in his absence. Caruso should be good to go for Friday's matchup with Portland.

  • Bulls' Javonte Green: Available, still on minutes limit

    Green (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the 76ers, Julia Poe of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Green reportedly "responded well" during his return Monday against the 76ers -- his first action since Dec. 31. He posted just one rebound and one steal in nine minutes, but his knee feeling alright is the primary takeaway. He'll remain on a minutes limit Wednesday, though there are few fantasy implications outside of the deepest leagues.

  • Bulls' Alex Caruso: Will play Wednesday

    Caruso (foot) will play Wednesday versus the 76ers, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

    Caruso is back after a one-game absence, so he should see his usual minutes, and his return will likely result in Patrick Williams heading back to the second unit. Coby White's minutes also figure to dip a bit with Caruso active.

  • Bulls' Javonte Green: Probable for Wednesday

    Green (knee) is probable for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

    Green saw nine minutes off the bench in his return from a lengthy absence Monday, and he'll likely see a similar workload Wednesday as he's eased back into the rotation. He's safe to leave on the waiver wire in most formats.

  • Bulls' Alex Caruso: Questionable Wednesday

    Caruso (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

    Caruso sat out Monday's game, which resulted in Patrick Williams returning to the first unit and Coby White seeing more minutes with the second unit. It'll be more of the same if Caruso remains on the sidelines for Wednesday's rematch.

  • Bulls' Javonte Green: Sees first action since December

    Green (knee) chipped in one rebound and one steal across nine minutes during Monday's 109-105 double-overtime victory over Philadelphia.

    Monday marked Green's return to action after a lengthy injury absence dating all the way back to Dec. 31, when he suffered a knee injury in a loss to the Cavaliers. In all, Green missed 34 consecutive games, but he looks like he'll have a chance to ramp up and reclaim a regular role off the bench over the final weeks of the regular season. Prior to the injury, Green was averaging 5.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, 0.8 steals, 0.8 assists and 0.7 blocks in 16.1 minutes per game over 28 appearances.

  • Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Fails to benefit sans Caruso

    Dosunmu generated four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 20 minutes in Monday's 109-105 double-overtime win over the 76ers.

    Even with Alex Caruso (foot) sitting out Monday, head coach Billy Donovan opted not to give Dosunmu a look in the starting lineup alongside Patrick Beverley. Patrick Williams moved up to the top unit instead, while Dosunmu didn't receive any notable bump in playing time while continuing to come off the bench. Dosunmu is averaging 5.2 points, 2.1 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.3 three-pointers and 0.3 blocks in 19.2 minutes in 12 outings since the All-Star break, numbers that keep him irrelevant in the majority of fantasy leagues.
