Josh Giddey
Josh Giddey has triple-double in loss to Nets
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 5:07 PM
Josh Giddey had 28 points (10-of-14 FGs, 8-of-11 FTs), 11 rebounds and 11 assists against the Nets on Wednesday.
Analysis: Giddey's triple-double was his fifth of the season and 23rd of his career. The 23-year-old shooting guard was highly efficient with 28 points on 14 attempts and 11 assists to just three turnovers. Giddey has returned fifth-round value so far this season.
Patrick Williams
Patrick Williams (wrist) available Wednesday
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 1:37 PM
Patrick Williams (wrist) is available for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Williams is available despite his appearance on the injury report with a wrist injury. Even with the Bulls dealing with a bout of injuries, the 24-year-old forward hasn't seen his minutes increase. Williams isn't worth holding in most fantasy leagues at this point.
Julian Phillips
Julian Phillips (illness) available, will start
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 1:34 PM
Julian Phillips (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: No surprise here, as Phillips was initially listed as probable and is now officially available for Wednesday's game against the Nets. With Isaac Okoro and Kevin Huerter both out, the 22-year-old will be part of the Bulls' starting lineup. He joins Josh Giddey, Ayo Dosunmu, Matas Buzelis and Nikola Vu?evi?.
Kevin Huerter
Kevin Huerter (hamstring) out at least one week
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 1:15 PM
Drew Stevens
Kevin Huerter (hamstring) will be re-evaluated in one week.
Analysis: Huerter was injured during Monday's loss to the Magic and will sit out Wednesday's game against the Nets. Unfortunately, he's going to miss a few more games on top of that, with Bulls head coach Billy Donovan revealing that Huerter will be out for at least one week. While Tre Jones would be worth a look, he is also out with a sprained ankle. Ayo Dosunmu is worth targeting, especially as he continues to start.
Zach Collins
Zach Collins (wrist) out Wednesday vs. Nets
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 12:37 PM
Zach Collins (wrist) is out for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Collins participated in shootaround on Wednesday, but was ultimately ruled out for the game against the Nets. The 28-year-old power forward will look to make his season debut against the Pacers on Friday. With Jalen Smith (hamstring) also out, Lachlan Olbrich should pick up more minutes off the bench.
Isaac Okoro
Isaac Okoro (back) out Wednesday vs. Nets
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 12:32 PM
Isaac Okoro (back) is out for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Okoro hasn't played since November 21 due to a back injury. With the 24-year-old small forward sidelined against the Nets on Wednesday, Ayo Dosunmu will continue to take on a bigger role for the Bulls.
Dalen Terry
Dalen Terry (calf) available Wednesday vs. Nets
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 12:32 PM
K.C. Johnson
Dalen Terry (calf) is available for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Terry is available to make his first appearance in a game since November 21. While his playing time may be restricted, there are opportunities to contribute with the Bulls being down multiple guards. There's no need to stream Terry immediately, but his playing time and production should be watched in deeper leagues.
Jalen Smith
Jalen Smith (hamstring) out Wednesday vs. Brooklyn
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 12:26 PM
K.C. Johnson
Jalen Smith (hamstring) is out for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Smith will miss a third straight game with a strained left hamstring. With Zach Collins (wrist) also out, the backup center responsibilities will once again fall upon Lachlan Olbrich's shoulders. This is not a good place to find deep-league fantasy value, as starter Nikola Vu?evi? will play plenty.
Tre Jones
Tre Jones (ankle) downgraded to out Wednesday
Wed, Dec 3, 2025, 12:25 PM
K.C. Johnson
Tre Jones (ankle) is out for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: With Coby White and Kevin Huerter also out, the Bulls will be extremely thin in the backcourt on Wednesday behind starters Josh Giddey and Ayo Dosunmu. Jevon Carter should play rotation minutes, but he is not worth the risk in most fantasy leagues.
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.
