Tre Jones Tre Jones goes for game-high 31 points vs. WAS
Thu, Apr 9, 2026, 3:31 PM
Tre Jones tallied 31 points (9-of-14 FGs, 12-of-12 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Thursday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Jones put on a show on Thursday, recording the third 30-point game of his NBA career, with two occurring this season. He's scored at least 20 points in three straight games, the first time he's done so this season. For those in active fantasy leagues, the Bulls have two more games on the schedule. If Jones is available for both, he has the potential to be a league-winner. |

Collin Sexton Collin Sexton posts 27 points, three steals
Thu, Apr 9, 2026, 3:30 PM
Collin Sexton accounted for 27 points (12-of-21 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, two assists, three steals and one three-pointer in Thursday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Bulls head coach Billy Donovan's willingness to continue to play his available veterans likely benefited fantasy managers who rostered Sexton and Tre Jones. The former had an excellent night in the nation's capital, shooting over 50 percent from the field and finishing a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Sexton has scored in double figures in 10 consecutive games, and the 27 points were the most in a game for him since he tallied 28 in a March 8 loss to the Kings. |

Leonard Miller Leonard Miller records 26/11/3/1/1 line vs. WAS
Thu, Apr 9, 2026, 3:30 PM
Leonard Miller finished Thursday's win over the Wizards with 26 points (11-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 11 rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers.
Analysis: With most fantasy leagues already wrapped up, Miller's performance against the Wizards won't have much of an impact in that regard. However, his solid play since being traded to Chicago may help solidify his future, whether it's in the Windy City or elsewhere. Miller has a team option for the 2026-27 season, and he would be a low-cost option to help fill out the roster if the Bulls decide to pick it up. |

Thu, Apr 9, 2026, 12:42 PM
Chicago Bulls
Patrick Williams, Leonard Miller, Tre Jones, Collin Sexton and Guerschon Yabusele will start against the Wizards on Thursday.
Analysis: Williams will make just his fifth start of the season, replacing Isaac Okoro in the opening lineup. Chicago's victory over Washington on Tuesday snapped a seven-game losing streak. The Bulls will have a chance to put together back-to-back wins for the first time since January. |

Isaac Okoro Isaac Okoro (quad) downgraded to out vs. Wizards
Thu, Apr 9, 2026, 5:33 AM
NBA Injury Report
Isaac Okoro (quad) is out for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Okoro exited Tuesday's win over the Wizards during the first half with a left quad contusion and did not return. His absence could push Patrick Williams into the starting lineup. A disappointment for most of this season, Williams scored 20 points on Tuesday. |

Nick Richards Nick Richards (elbow) out Thursday vs. Wizards
Wed, Apr 8, 2026, 9:49 AM
NBA Injury Report
Nick Richards (elbow) is out for Thursday's matchup with the Wizards.
Analysis: Richards' lengthy absence will continue into Thursday's rematch with Washington, which means Guerschon Yabusele and Lachlan Olbrich should log additional minutes until he returns. |
|
Josh Giddey Josh Giddey (hamstring) out Thursday vs. WAS
Wed, Apr 8, 2026, 9:45 AM
NBA Injury Report
Josh Giddey (hamstring) is out for Thursday's matchup with the Wizards.
Analysis: Giddey will miss a third straight contest, and Collin Sexton should continue to see additional run in his absence. Tre Jones should be called upon more as well. |

Patrick Williams Patrick Williams has 20/7/6/3/1 line in win
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 3:35 PM
Patrick Williams had 20 points (6-of-8 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, six assists, three steals, one block and four three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Williams hadn't played at least 30 minutes in a game since the middle of February, but picked up minutes in the second half with Isaac Okoro (quad) sidelined. The 24-year-old forward led the Bulls with 32 minutes played and was arguably the best player one the floor Tuesday. Williams had an excellent game that came complete with a full stat line. It's the kind of performance the Bulls envisioned him having regularly when he was drafted fourth overall in 2020, but have only occasionally seen from Williams. |

Tre Jones Tre Jones has 20 points, nine assists in win
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 3:31 PM
Tre Jones had 20 points (8-of-15 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), two rebounds, nine assists and one steal in the Bulls' 129-98 victory over the Wizards on Tuesday.
Analysis: Jones has now scored at least 20 points in four of his last seven games. The 26-year-old point guard has picked up his game lately as he's provided sixth-round per game value over the last two weeks. With three games still left in the season, Jones already has some positive momentum behind him heading into next year. |

Isaac Okoro Isaac Okoro (quad) will not return vs. Washington
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 2:44 PM
K.C. Johnson
Isaac Okoro (quad) will not return to Tuesday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Okoro suffered a left quad contusion during the first half of Tuesday's game, with the injury limiting him to 16 minutes. Patrick Williams started the third quarter and should see additional minutes if Okoro misses time. |
|
Patrick Williams Patrick Williams (thumb) available Tuesday
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 12:05 PM
Patrick Williams (thumb) is available for Tuesday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Williams is dealing with a left thumb sprain, but will play through it against the Wizards on Tuesday. The 24-year-old forward hasn't been much of a fantasy factor this year, averaging 6.6 points per game and 2.8 rebounds per game. |

Collin Sexton Collin Sexton (finger) upgraded to available
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 12:03 PM
NBA Injury Report
Collin Sexton (finger) is available for Tuesday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Sexton is good to go after initially being probable for Tuesday's game. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) still out, Sexton should remain in the starting lineup, which raises his fantasy ceiling for those competing in active leagues. |
|
Nick Richards Nick Richards (elbow) out again vs. Washington
Mon, Apr 6, 2026, 11:30 AM
NBA Injury Report
Nick Richards (knee) is out against the Wizards on Tuesday.
Analysis: Richards will miss a seventh straight game, which means another starting nod for Guerschon Yabusele. Lachlan Olbrich, who is listed as probable with a foot issue, should also take on a few extra minutes. |
|
Josh Giddey Josh Giddey (hamstring) remains out vs. Washington
Mon, Apr 6, 2026, 11:28 AM
NBA Injury Report
Josh Giddey (hamstring) has been ruled out against the Wizards on Tuesday.
Analysis: Giddey will miss a second straight game, which should allow Collin Sexton to get another start. Sexton logged 31 minutes in Sunday's loss and contributed 18 points and nine rebounds. |
|
Collin Sexton Collin Sexton (finger) probable vs. Washington
Mon, Apr 6, 2026, 11:27 AM
NBA Injury Report
Collin Sexton (finger) is probable to play against the Wizards on Tuesday.
Analysis: Sexton is expected to be available once again, which means he should get another start. Josh Giddey (hamstring) is sidelined, so Sexton should play a similar role to what he did on Sunday, when he scored 18 points and added nine rebounds in 31 minutes. |

Tre Jones Tre Jones has 29 points, six assists in loss
Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 12:14 PM
Tre Jones had 29 points (12-of-20 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, six assists, two steals and one three-pointer in Sunday's loss to the Suns.
Analysis: Jones isn't necessarily known for his scoring, but suddenly has three games with at least 20 points in his last six outings. The 29 points are the most he's had in a game since the 26-year-old point guard dropped 34 points in a loss to the Rockets on January 14. Jones and the Bulls have four games in the season's final week, starting with a matchup against the Wizards on Tuesday. |

NBA Lineups
Tre Jones, Collin Sexton, Isaac Okoro, Leonard Miller and Guerschon Yabusele will start Sunday's game against the Suns.
Analysis: The Bulls are without Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis for Sunday's game, opening two spots in the starting lineup. They've been replaced by Sexton and Miller, who are worth streaming. Also, Yabusele continues to start for the injured Nick Richards. |

Collin Sexton Collin Sexton (finger) upgraded to available
Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 8:03 AM
NBA Injury Report
Collin Sexton (finger) is available for Sunday's game against the Suns.
Analysis: Initially listed as probable, there's a good chance that Sexton starts on Sunday. The Bulls won't have Josh Giddey (hamstring), and Sexton has been his replacement in the past. |
|
Nick Richards Nick Richards (elbow) downgraded to out vs. PHX
Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 8:01 AM
K.C. Johnson
Nick Richards (elbow) is out for Sunday's game against the Suns.
Analysis: Richards will remain out for a sixth consecutive game, meaning another start for Guerschon Yabusele. Lachlan Olbrich may play rotation minutes off the bench, as the Bulls are also without Matas Buzelis. |
|
Josh Giddey Josh Giddey (hamstring) downgraded to out vs. PHX
Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 7:59 AM
K.C. Johnson
Josh Giddey (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Suns.
Analysis: Giddey's absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup, with Collin Sexton being the player most likely to fill the void. Already worth rostering in 14-team leagues, managers in 12-team leagues should pick up Sexton if he's on the waiver wire. |
