Ayo Dosunmu Ayo Dosunmu records 18 points, seven assists
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 5:44 PM
Ayo Dosunmu tallied 18 points (6-of-13 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, seven assists, one steal and four three-pointers in Monday's loss to the Magic.
Analysis: After a run of seven straight games with at least 14 points, Dosunmu's offensive production has been inconsistent recently. Monday's performance was a good one for the fifth-year guard, who has scored at least 18 points in eight games this season. That matches his tally for the entire 2024-25 campaign. While his production places him outside the top-100 in nine-cat formats, Dosunmu has been productive enough to merit being rostered in 14-team leagues. |

Tre Jones Tre Jones matches season-high in points vs. ORL
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 5:40 PM
Tre Jones recorded 20 points (7-of-10 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), one rebound, three assists and two three-pointers in Monday's loss to the Bulls.
Analysis: With Kevin Huerter exiting Monday's game after six minutes with an adductor injury and Coby White (calf) already out, more minutes were available to Jones. He made the most of his opportunity, recording his second 20-point game of the season and first since November 10. Jones' fantasy value in the short term depends on the availability of White and Huerter. If those two remain out, Jones will be worth streaming for the rest of Week 7, with the Bulls playing three more games. |

Nikola Vucevic Nikola Vu?evi? posts 20/11/5/2 line vs. Orlando
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 5:32 PM
Nikola Vu?evi? tallied 20 points (9-of-13 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), 11 rebounds, five assists, two steals and one three-pointer in Monday's loss to the Magic.
Analysis: Vu?evi? has recorded a double-double in three of his last four games, playing through a lingering knee issue. Over the past two weeks, the Bulls center has provided top-40 per-game value in nine-cat formats, exceeding his season-long value by a few spots. The good news for Vu?evi? and fantasy managers is that, while the Bulls have three more games in Week 7, they won't have a back-to-back. That should help the veteran center navigate his sore knee. |

Josh Giddey Josh Giddey leads Bulls with 22 points Monday
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 5:29 PM
Josh Giddey accumulated 22 points (8-of-14 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), nine rebounds, six assists, three steals, one block and three three-pointers in Monday's loss to the Mavericks.
Analysis: Giddey was one of four Bulls to score at least 20 points on Monday, but the team's inability to string together stops caught up to Chicago in the end. Even worse for Giddey was the turnover count, as he was responsible for eight of the Bulls' 20. Over the past two weeks, there has been a three-round difference in Giddey's value in eight- and nine-cat formats due to an average of 3.7 turnovers per game. The good news for fantasy managers is that his overall production has mitigated the impact of those turnovers, but it would be great if he cleaned that up sooner rather than later. |

Kevin Huerter Kevin Huerter (adductor) will not return Monday
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 2:16 PM
Julia Poe
Kevin Huerter (adductor) will not return to Monday's game against the Magic.
Analysis: Huerter played six minutes in the first quarter before exiting with an adductor injury. His absence frees up additional minutes for some Bulls reserves, most especially Julian Phillips. If Huerter misses time, Phillips won't be worth a look in most fantasy leagues. |

Zach Collins Zach Collins (wrist) cleared for contact practices
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 12:14 PM
Joel Lorenzi
Zach Collins (wrist) has been cleared for contact.
Analysis: Collins has yet to make his first appearance of the regular season after suffering a fractured left wrist during the preseason. According to Bulls head coach Billy Donovan, the 6-foot-11 center will likely get in a few practices with the team's G League affiliate. If all goes well, Collins could be available to play by the end of the week. His return impacts Jalen Smith more than any other Bulls, as he has served as Nikola Vu?evi?'s backup. |

Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 11:39 AM
NBA Injury Report

Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 11:36 AM
NBA Injury Report
Coby White (calf) has been ruled out against the Magic on Monday.
Analysis: White was not initially listed on the injury report, but he was added as doubtful earlier this afternoon and has now bee ruled out. Ayo Dosunmu started in his place on Saturday and should remain in that role once again, with Tre Jones taking on extra minutes off the bench. |

Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 9:55 AM
NBA Injury Report
Zach Collins (wrist) and Dalen Terry (calf) are out for Monday's matchup with the Magic.
Analysis: Collins hasn't yet made his 2025-26 debut, and that won't change against Orlando. Terry will miss a fifth straight game. Neither absence will have any meaningful impact on Chicago's rotation. |
|
Coby White Coby White (calf) now doubtful Monday vs. Magic
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 7:58 AM
NBA Injury Report
Coby White (calf) has been downgraded to doubtful for Monday's matchup with the Magic.
Analysis: White sat out Saturday against the Pacers for injury management on the second leg of Chicago's back-to-back set. He was off the injury report on Sunday evening but added back in on Monday afternoon. White's presumed absence from Monday's game means Tre Jones and Ayo Dosunmu should see additional run. |

Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 11:03 AM
NBA Injury Report
Julian Phillips (illness) is questionable to play against the Magic on Monday.
Analysis: Phillips was a late scratch on Saturday, but that didn't alter Chicago's rotation. His status for Monday's game won't impact fantasy basketball. |
|

Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 11:01 AM
NBA Injury Report

Zach Collins Zach Collins (wrist) upgraded to doubtful
Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 10:58 AM
NBA Injury Report
Zach Collins (wrist) is doubtful to play against the Magic on Monday.
Analysis: Collins fractured his left wrist during the preseason and has yet to make his season debut. That isn't expected to change against Orlando, but the status upgrade is a step in the right direction. When he returns, he'll split the backup center minutes with Jalen Smith. |

Jalen Smith Jalen Smith (hamstring) out again vs. Orlando
Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 10:54 AM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out against the Magic on Monday.
Analysis: Smith will miss a second straight game, and with Zach Collins doubtful, Chicago will turn to smaller lineups when Nikola Vu?evi? is off the floor. On Saturday, that meant relying on Matas Buzelis and Lachlan Olbrich to fill center minutes. |
|
Isaac Okoro Isaac Okoro (back) remains out vs. Orlando
Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 10:50 AM
NBA Injury Report
Isaac Okoro (back) has been ruled out against the Magic on Monday.
Analysis: Okoro will miss a fifth straight game, which won't impact many fantasy lineups. However, his continued absence will leave a starting spot open, which has lately been filled by Kevin Huerter, who will continue to be worth streaming with Okoro unavailable. |
|
Coby White Coby White (calf) off injury report vs. Orlando
Sun, Nov 30, 2025, 10:33 AM
NBA Injury Report
Coby White (calf) is not on the injury report against the Magic on Monday.
Analysis: White sat out the second leg of Chicago's back-to-back on Saturday, but Bulls coach Billy Donovan said that would be the final back-to-back that they will officially rule him out for. He'll be back to his typical role on Monday, which will push Ayo Dosunmu to the bench. |

Tre Jones Tre Jones chips in 17 points off bench in loss
Sat, Nov 29, 2025, 4:52 PM
Tre Jones provided a boost off the bench with 17 points (7-of-9 FGs), one rebound and two assists against the Pacers on Saturday.
Analysis: Jones was one of five Bulls to score in double figures in this game, and he matched Josh Giddey as the team's leading scorer. He didn't get the starting nod with Coby White (calf) sidelined for the second leg of this back-to-back, with Ayo Dosunmu (15/4/4) getting the bump. However, Jones was still able to make an impact. However, Bulls coach Billy Donovan said before the game that this was the final back-to-back that they're planning for White to be held out of, so the opportunities for Jones and Dosunmu to play more minutes may be limited. |

Josh Giddey Josh Giddey records 17/11/7 line vs. Indiana
Sat, Nov 29, 2025, 4:46 PM
Josh Giddey led the Bulls with 17 points (7-of-13 FGs), 11 rebounds, seven assists and two three-pointers in a 103-101 loss to the Pacers on Saturday.
Analysis: Giddey was once again able to pour in the points, rebounds and assists, which is great for fantasy managers. He's averaging career highs in all three, as well as in three-pointers. This was Chicago's third straight loss, all coming against teams currently outside the postseason picture. Giddey will look to help them get back on track in Orlando on Monday to kick off a four-game week. |

Ayo Dosunmu CHI starts Giddey, Ayo, Huerter, Buzelis, Vu?evi?
Sat, Nov 29, 2025, 1:10 PM
NBA Lineups
Josh Giddey, Ayo Dosunmu, Kevin Huerter, Matas Buzelis and Nikola Vu?evi? will start Saturday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Already without Isaac Okoro, the Bulls won't have Coby White for Saturday's game, either. As a result, Dosunmu returns to the starting lineup, which raises his fantasy ceiling. Also, Giddey will be the sole point guard in the starting lineup, as Tre Jones will come off the bench. |
|
Patrick Williams Patrick Williams (wrist) available Saturday
Sat, Nov 29, 2025, 12:38 PM
NBA Injury Report
Patrick Williams (wrist) is available for Saturday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Williams will play the second game of Chicago's back-to-back after logging 13 minutes in Friday's loss to the Hornets. He hasn't been productive enough to merit being rostered in most redraft leagues, and that won't change on Saturday. |
