Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 4:42 PM
Tre Jones had 23 points (8-of-12 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), four rebounds, four assists and two three-pointers in Friday's loss to the Magic.
Analysis: Jones had a game-high 31 points in the win over the Wizards on Thursday and followed it up with a team-high 23 points in the loss to the Magic on Friday. The 26-year-old point guard has now had at least 20 points in four consecutive games. Jones has been one of the more valuable players in the last week for those still in active fantasy leagues. |

Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 1:39 PM
NBA Lineups
Tre Jones, Collin Sexton, Matas Buzelis, Leonard Miller and Lachlan Olbrich will start Friday's game against the Magic.
Analysis: Buzelis is back, with his return pushing Patrick Williams to the bench. The other change to the lineup is Olbrich, who replaces the injured Guerschon Yabusele. With Yabusele and Nick Richards done for the season, Olbrich may also start Sunday's game against the Mavericks. |

Leonard Miller Leonard Miller (hand) upgraded to available
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 1:10 PM
NBA Injury Report
Leonard Miller (hand) is available for Friday's game against the Magic.
Analysis: With Matas Buzelis (illness) available, Miller may have to come off the bench on Friday. However, he should still play plenty, so those rostering him in active leagues should not be too concerned. |

Anfernee Simons Simons (wrist) to miss Bulls last two games
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 12:34 PM
Anfernee Simons (wrist) will sit out the final two games of the season.
Analysis: Simons is one of a handful of Bulls that will sit out the last two games of the regular season. Collin Sexton will see plenty of minutes with Josh Giddey (hamstring) also out while Rob Dillingham should have a significant bench role. |

Isaac Okoro Isaac Okoro (quad) remains out vs. Orlando
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 12:33 PM
Will Gottlieb
Isaac Okoro (quad) has been ruled out against the Magic on Friday.
Analysis: Okoro will miss a second straight game with this quad contusion he suffered on Tuesday. Patrick Williams took on a larger role with Okoro unavailable and has had arguably his best two-game stretch of the season. Williams will continue to play increased minutes. |

Nick Richards Nick Richards (elbow) to miss final two games
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 12:32 PM
K.C. Johnson
Nick Richards (elbow) is out for the Bulls' final two games of the season.
Analysis: Due to an elbow injury, Richards has not appeared in a game since March 25. The 7-footer's playing time increased significantly after being traded to Chicago from Phoenix, even providing streaming value on some nights. However, Richards is unlikely to be in a position where he can provide reliable fantasy value in 2026-27. |
|
Josh Giddey Giddey (hamstring) to miss Bulls last two games
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 12:31 PM
Josh Giddey (hamstring) will miss the Bulls' final two games of the season.
Analysis: Giddey is set to close the season having missed the final five games with a hamstring injury. Collin Sexton should continue to start with Giddey sidelined while Tre Jones will also have an increased role. |
|
Leonard Miller Leonard Miller (hand) probable vs. Orlando
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 10:16 AM
NBA Injury Report
Leonard Miller (hand) is probable for Friday's gam against the Magic.
Analysis: While Miller is a late addition to the Bulls' injury report, he is still considered probable to play. If available, he may once again have a prominent role, as Matas Buzelis (illness) is questionable. Miller finished Thursday's win over the Wizards with 26 points, 11 rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers. He is worth rostering in active fantasy leagues, even if Buzelis is available. |

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. |

Patrick Williams Patrick Williams starting Thursday vs. Wizards
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. |
