Ayo Dosunmu Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) misses practice Monday

Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) missed practice on Monday.
Analysis: Bulls coach Billy Donovan said it was a non-contact practice, but Dosunmu didn't participate. Dosunmu also went to a doctor after Sunday night's loss because his thumb was bothering him. He already missed one game with the sprained thumb, so it's possible he aggravated the injury. More updates should be provided closer to Chicago's next game, which isn't until Friday. |

Josh Giddey Giddey nets team-high 19 points in blowout loss
Sun, Dec 7, 2025, 3:19 PM
Josh Giddey amassed 18 points (6-of-15 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), three rebounds, five assists, one steal and two blocks over 34 minutes in Sunday's lopsided defeat at the hands of the Warriors.
Analysis: Giddey took a team-high 15 shots in this one as the Bulls fell behind early and never quite recovered. The 23-year-old guard has scuffled a bit recently as his rebounding and assists numbers have taken a hit over the past two weeks. He's remained a steady 20-point scorer, but the Bulls are reeling of late, having lost seven consecutive games since November 24. They have just two games on tap for next week when they face the Hornets and Pelicans. |

Zach Collins Zach Collins (wrist) available Sunday vs. GSW
Sun, Dec 7, 2025, 12:45 PM
NBA Injury Report
Zach Collins (wrist) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Collins is good to go after the Bulls listed him as probable on the initial injury report. He'll slot in as the backup center, with Nikola Vu?evi? playing most of the available minutes as the starter. |

Sun, Dec 7, 2025, 12:43 PM
NBA Lineups
Josh Giddey, Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu, Matas Buzelis and Nikola Vu?evi? will start Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Dosunmu is available after missing Friday's loss to the Pacers with a thumb injury. He immediately moves back into the starting lineup, with Julian Phillips being pushed to the bench. That's the lone change to the Bulls' starting five. |
|
Patrick Williams Patrick Williams, Dalen Terry available Sunday
Sun, Dec 7, 2025, 11:35 AM
NBA Injury Report
Patrick Williams (wrist) and Dalen Terry (calf) are available for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Williams and Terry have been upgraded from probable to available. While both will be part of the Bulls' rotation, neither has been productive enough to merit being rostered in most redraft leagues. |
|
Coby White Coby White (calf) available Sunday vs. GSW
Sun, Dec 7, 2025, 11:33 AM
NBA Injury Report
Coby White (calf) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: White has been upgraded from probable to available and will take his usual place in the Bulls' starting lineup. Those who have him rostered must ensure that he's in their active lineups before tipoff. |

Tre Jones Tre Jones (ankle) downgraded to out Sunday
Sun, Dec 7, 2025, 11:27 AM
Chuck Swirsky
Tre Jones (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Jones will miss a third consecutive game, resulting in more playing time for Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter. However, that does not make either player worth streaming in fantasy leagues. |
|
Isaac Okoro Isaac Okoro (back) downgraded to out Sunday
Sun, Dec 7, 2025, 11:24 AM
Chuck Swirsky
Isaac Okoro (back) is out for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Sunday's game will be the eighth that Okoro has missed, which opens up a spot in the starting lineup. While Julian Phillips was the most recent replacement, it was because the Bulls did not have Ayo Dosunmu. Dosunmu is probable to play on Sunday, so he'll likely move into the starting lineup if cleared. |
|
Jalen Smith Jalen Smith (hamstring) downgraded to out Sunday
Sun, Dec 7, 2025, 11:21 AM
Chuck Swirsky
Jalen Smith (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Sunday's game will be the fifth that Smith has missed with a strained left hamstring. Zach Collins will once again fill the backup center role, with Lachlan Olbrich being available in case of emergency. |
|
Dalen Terry Dalen Terry, Patrick Williams probable Sunday
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 12:53 PM
NBA Injury Report
Dalen Terry (calf) and Patrick Williams (wrist) are probable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Terry and Williams are on track to play against the Warriors. However, even with the absence of other rotation players, neither is in a position to affect fantasy basketball. While Williams and Terry can be held onto in dynasty leagues, there isn't a need to hold onto either player in most redraft leagues. |
|
Coby White Coby White (calf) probable Sunday vs. Golden State
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 12:51 PM
NBA Injury Report
Coby White (calf) is probable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: White is back on the Bulls' injury report, but the probable tag suggests he will ultimately be available to play. Look for him to take on his usual role starting alongside Josh Giddey. |

Jalen Smith Jalen Smith (hamstring) doubtful Sunday vs. GSW
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 12:20 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Smith (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Smith has missed Chicago's last four games with a strained left hamstring, and it will likely be five straight on the sidelines come Sunday. With Zach Collins on track to play, Smith's absence can be easily accounted for by the Bulls. |
|
Isaac Okoro Isaac Okoro (back) doubtful Sunday vs. GSW
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 12:06 PM
NBA Injury Report
Isaac Okoro (back) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Okoro is likely to miss an eighth consecutive game as he continues to deal with left lumbar radiculopathy. While the absence of his production does not affect fantasy basketball, the Bulls have been forced to make do without their best perimeter defender. Julian Phillips has moved into the starting lineup, but he is not worth picking up in fantasy leagues. |
|
Tre Jones Tre Jones (ankle) doubtful Sunday vs. Golden State
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 12:00 PM
NBA Injury Report
Tre Jones (ankle) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Jones has missed Chicago's last two games with an ankle injury and is likely to miss a third on Sunday. While Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter have received bumps to their minutes, neither has been consistent enough to be fully trusted in deep fantasy leagues. |
|
Ayo Dosunmu Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) questionable Sunday vs. GSW
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 11:57 AM
NBA Injury Report
Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Dosunmu did not play in Friday's loss to the Pacers, freeing up rotation minutes for Jevon Carter and Dalen Terry. While the former hit four three-pointers and scored 14 points, neither player is worth the streaming risk in most leagues, especially since Coby White is on track to play. |
|
Zach Collins Zach Collins (wrist) probable Sunday vs. GSW
Sat, Dec 6, 2025, 11:53 AM
NBA Injury Report
Zach Collins (wrist) is probable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Collins made his season debut on Friday, playing 21 minutes off the bench in a loss to the Pacers. He should take on the backup center responsibilities again on Sunday, but the playing time will likely decrease if the Bulls remain competitive. Starter Nikola Vu?evi? played 26 minutes against Indiana. |

Coby White Coby White has 22 points in return Friday
Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 6:34 PM
Coby White had 22 points (6-of-14 FGs, 9-of-12 FTs), three rebounds, six assists and one three-pointer against the Pacers on Friday.
Analysis: White returned after missing three games with a calf injury. The 25-year-old point guard played just 26 minutes due to a minutes restriction, but still led the Bulls is points and field goal attempts. The Bulls close out Week 7 with a matchup against the Warriors on Sunday and White should see more minutes then. |
|
Dalen Terry Dalen Terry (calf) available vs. Idnaiana
Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 12:46 PM
NBA Injury Report
Dalen Terry (calf) is available to play the Pacers on Friday.
Analysis: Terry was initially listed as probable, so his availability isn't surprising. With Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) and Tre Jones (ankle) sidelined and Coby White (calf) on a minutes restriction, Terry could end up playing a large role. However, that doesn't make him an appealing streamer outside of deep formats. |
|
Patrick Williams Patrick Williams (wrist) available vs. Indiana
Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 12:44 PM
NBA Injury Report
Patrick Williams (wrist) is available to play against the Pacers.
Analysis: As expected, Williams will suit up against Indiana. Chicago is dealing with plenty of injuries, which could open the door for a few extra minutes for Williams, though he hasn't been able to produce much in the box score this season. |
|
Isaac Okoro Isaac Okoro (back) remains out Friday vs. Pacers
Fri, Dec 5, 2025, 12:32 PM
Isaac Okoro (back) is out for Friday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Okoro is set to miss his seventh consecutive game with a back injury. With Ayo Dosunmu also out, expect the Bulls to lean on Coby White. Julian Phillips could also see additional minutes off the bench, but isn't worth streaming. |
