Noa Essengue (head) upgraded to available Monday

Essengue, Noa copy.jpg

Noa Essengue

CHI Forward #2

Player Stats

Noa Essengue (head) is available for Monday’s game against the Celtics.

Essengue is good to go after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Wizards. His return could mean Zach Collins loses out on playing time after logging 11 minutes the last time out. Neither player should be rostered in redraft leagues.

Zach Collins

CHI Forward-Center #12

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Zach Collins (illness) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Spurs.

Due to a respiratory illness, Collins did not play in Sunday’s loss to the 76ers. His availability does not impact fantasy basketball, especially with Nic Claxton back from a strained hamstring.
Zach Collins

CHI Forward-Center #12

Zach Collins (illness) is out for Sunday’s game against the 76ers.

Collins will miss Sunday’s game with a respiratory illness. His absence won’t affect fantasy basketball, as the veteran center has played limited rotation minutes.
Nic Claxton

CHI Center #9

Nic Claxton (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Knicks.

For the first time this season, the Bulls have listed Claxton as questionable ahead of a game. If he can play on Wednesday, Zach Collins could see his playing time decrease after playing 10 minutes in Monday’s loss to the 76ers. The question is whether the Bulls would start Claxton immediately; that would push Jalen Smith to the bench.
Jalen Smith

CHI Forward-Center #25

Jalen Smith (finger) is questionable for Friday’s matchup with the Celtics.

Smith is dealing with a left finger sprain that could keep him sidelined against Boston. With Nic Claxton (hamstring) still out and Tobe Awaka (ankle) questionable, the Bulls could turn to Zach Collins to handle substantial minutes at center.
Tobe Awaka

CHI Forward

Tobe Awaka (ankle) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Knicks.

Awaka’s absence won’t affect fantasy basketball, but it may give Zach Collins a few more minutes off the bench. There’s nothing to gain from rostering Collins in fantasy leagues.
Tobe Awaka

CHI Forward

Tobe Awaka (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Knicks.

Awaka, who played 12 minutes in Monday’s loss to the Celtics, is dealing with a sprained left ankle. The rookie’s potential absence wouldn’t affect fantasy basketball, but it could give Zach Collins a few more minutes.
Noa Essengue

CHI Forward #2

Noa Essengue (head) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Celtics.

Essengue sat out Saturday’s loss to the Wizards with a right-side head contusion. If he remains out, Zach Collins may retain the backup center role. Collins played 11 minutes on Saturday, which isn’t enough time to offer tangible fantasy value.
Noa Essengue

CHI Forward #2

Noa Essengue (head) is out for Saturday’s game against the Wizards.

A little over an hour after he was downgraded to questionable, Essengue is now out for Saturday’s game. His absence could lead to Zach Collins returning to the rotation after being a DNP-CD in Friday’s win over the Bucks.
Noa Essengue

CHI Forward #2

Noa Essengue (head) is now questionable to play against the Wizards on Saturday.

Essengue was initially listed as probable for this game, but his status has been downgraded. Patrick Williams (groin) has been added to the injury report as questionable, though he would be in line for extra minutes if he plays and Essengue doesn’t. Rookie Dailyn Swain is another option to take on more minutes if both Essengue and Williams are out.
Noa Essengue

CHI Forward #2

Noa Essengue (head) is probable for Saturday’s game against the Wizards.

Essengue is probable with a head contusion. The 19-year-old has impressed in limited action so far this season, but should get plenty of opportunities with the Bulls looking to develop their young players this season.

Derrick White, Paul George, Jordan Walsh, Jayson Tatum and Neemias Queta will start Tuesday’s game against the 76ers.

After starting Mike Conley in Sunday’s win over the Bucks, the Celtics are calling on Jordan Walsh to start. While limited as a scorer, his defense will be key against Philadelphia’s offensive firepower.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (wrist) has been downgraded to questionable for Tuesday’s game against the Jazz.

Antetokounmpo’s status is trending in the wrong direction after the Heat listed him as probable on the initial injury report. If he can’t play, the Heat may rely more on Nikola Jović at power forward.
