Coby White
Coby White (calf) hopes to play Friday vs. Pacers
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 6:27 AM
K.C. Johnson
Coby White (calf) said he “hopes” to play against the Pacers on Friday, but he know it could be on Sunday against the Warriors.
Analysis: White has already been ruled out against Brooklyn on Wednesday, but that could be his final absence. Ayo Dosunmu has been starting in his place, but he'll return to a reserve role when White is back. That won't eliminate all the value he held, but it will certainly limit his production. The good news for managers with White rostered is that he should be back by the weekend.
Zach Collins
Zach Collins (wrist) participates in shootaround
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 6:23 AM
K.C. Johnson
Zach Collins (wrist) participated in shootaround on Wednesday.
Analysis: Typically participating in shootaround is a sign that a player will suit up, but Collins will practice with the Windy City Bulls later on Wednesday, which may indicate that he won't play against the Nets. He said if that goes well, he will play “very soon”, which indicates he could make his season debut on Friday against the Pacers. For now, Jalen Smith (hamstring) will occupy the reserve center minutes if he plays, with Lachlan Olbrich backing him up.
Tre Jones
Tre Jones (ankle) now questionable vs. Nets
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 5:39 AM
NBA Injury Report
Tre Jones (ankle) is questionable to play against the Nets on Wednesday.
Analysis: Jones was initially listed as probable but has since been downgraded. Coby White (calf) and Kevin Huerter (hamstring) are out, which means Ayo Dosunmu is already starting. Jones' absence will likely open the door for Jevon Carter to play the backup guard minutes, though Dosunmu and Giddey should be on the floor for most of the game, which won't leave enough time for Carter to be worth streaming.
Julian Phillips
Julian Phillips (illness) probable Wednesday
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 12:01 PM
NBA Injury Report
Julian Phillips (illness) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Phillips is one of many Bulls listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game. The good news is that he's considered probable, so there's a good chance he suits up. With Isaac Okoro doubtful and Kevin Huerter out, there should be additional rotation minutes available to Phillips. However, it's unlikely to be enough for him to affect fantasy basketball.
Dalen Terry
Dalen Terry (calf) questionable vs. Brooklyn
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 11:57 AM
NBA Injury Report
Dalen Terry (wrist) is questionable to play against the Nets on Wednesday.
Analysis: Terry could return to suit up for the first time since Nov. 21, but even if he does, he won't play a significant role. He has played 8.9 minutes per game this season, so his status doesn't impact the Bulls' rotation.
Zach Collins
Zach Collins (wrist) questionable Wednesday
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 11:53 AM
NBA Injury Report
Zach Collins (wrist) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Collins could potentially make his first appearance of the season for the Bulls, and the timing would be great for a team with a loaded injury report. If available, the veteran center may be asked to take on some of the minutes that would typically go to Jalen Smith. Smith has missed the last two games with a strained hamstring but is considered questionable for Wednesday.
Patrick Williams
Patrick Williams (wrist) probable vs. Brooklyn
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 11:52 AM
NBA Injury Report
Patrick Williams (wrist) is probable to play against the Nets on Wednesday.
Analysis: Williams should be good to go, but even with recent injuries to Chicago's rotation, he hasn't played big minutes. He isn't a player to consider rostering in standard leagues.
Jalen Smith
Jalen Smith (hamstring) questionable Wednesday
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 11:50 AM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Smith (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Smith has missed the last two games with a strained left hamstring. Zach Collins (wrist) is questionable, and he can absorb some of the minutes that would have gone to Smith in what would be his season debut. Given a likely minutes restriction, there's no need to consider streaming Collins.
Isaac Okoro
Isaac Okoro (back) doubtful Wednesday vs. Nets
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 11:46 AM
NBA Injury Report
Isaac Okoro (back) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: While Okoro's production has not affected fantasy basketball this season, his injury has opened up a place in the Bulls' starting lineup. With Kevin Huerter also out, the Bulls will rely even more on Ayo Dosunmu to fill the void. Also, Julian Phillips will have more minutes available if Okoro misses another game.
Tre Jones
Tre Jones (ankle) probable vs. Brooklyn
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 11:42 AM
NBA Injury Report
Tre Jones (ankle) is probable to play against the Nets on Wednesday.
Analysis: Jones is expected to suit up, and he is coming off scoring a season-high 20 points on Monday with Coby White (calf) out and Kevin Huerter (hamstring) exiting after six minutes. With both sidelined again, Jones should be in for a productive night.
Kevin Huerter
Kevin Huerter (hamstring) ruled out vs. Brooklyn
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 11:38 AM
NBA Injury Report
Kevin Huerter (hamstring) has been ruled out against the Nets on Wednesday.
Analysis: Huerter exited early from Monday's game, which allowed Julian Phillips to start the second half in his place, though he only contributed 10 points and three rebounds in 20 minutes. Tre Jones ended up setting a new season high for scoring with 20 points and would be a much better streaming option, even if he doesn't start.
Coby White
Coby White (calf) out again vs. Brooklyn
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 11:35 AM
NBA Injury Report
Coby White (calf) has been ruled out against the Nets on Wednesday.
Analysis: White will miss a third straight game with this calf injury. He wasn't initially on the injury report on Monday, but he was added and eventually ruled out. It seemed like he was in the clear, but now he'll continue to miss time. Ayo Dosunmu should continue to start in his place, and with Kevin Huerter (hamstring) also out, Tre Jones could start as well, though he should at least see a bump in minutes.
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.
Julian Phillips
Julian Phillips (illness) available vs. Orlando
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 11:39 AM
NBA Injury Report
Julian Phillips (illness) is available to play against the Magic on Monday.
Analysis: Phillips was initially questionable for this game after missing Saturday's matchup with Indiana. He'll be back for this one, but he isn't a significant part of Chicago's rotation.
Coby White
Coby White (calf) now out vs. Orlando on Monday
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.
