Yuki Kawamura

CHI Point Guard #17

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports Yuki Kawamura has agreed to a two-way deal with the Bulls.

No surprise here as Kawamura is rewarded with a two-way deal after a strong summer league performance with the Bulls as a free agent. Kawamura spent his rookie season with the Grizzlies on a two-way deal. The 5-foot-8 guard has limited upside due to his size, but his playmaking ability was on full display in Vegas.
Yuki Kawamura

FA Point Guard #17

Yuki Kawamura amassed 20 points (6-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, 10 assists, two steals and six three-pointers in Friday’s win over the Jazz.

After spending his rookie season with the Grizzlies on a two-way contract, Kawamura played with the Bulls in the summer league as an unrestricted free agent. While the 5-foot-8 guard may be considered small for his position, his playmaking ability put people on notice in Las Vegas. Kawamura racked up 10 assists on Friday and was also 6-of-9 from beyond the arc. There are still strides for him to make defensively, but it would be unsurprising if Kawamura landed a two-way deal based on his play in Las Vegas. However, Chicago has already filled all three of its slots, so it would have to be with another team, or the Bulls would have to waive someone.
Noa Essengue

CHI Small Forward

Noa Essengue amassed 21 points (7-of-14 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, one assist and three three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Pacers.

Despite suffering a right quad contusion during Saturday’s loss to the Kings, Essengue was in the starting lineup on Monday. And the first-round pick played well against the Pacers, shooting 50 percent from the field overall and 3-of-8 from beyond the arc. With Matas Buzelis likely done for the summer, there may be an opportunity for Essengue to show what he can do as the top scoring option. That is, if he isn’t also sidelined for the rest of the week.
Matas Buzelis

CHI Power Forward #14

Matas Buzelis finished Monday’s win over the Pacers with 28 points (8-of-14 FGs, 10-of-13 FTs), five rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and two three-pointers.

Buzelis was sensational on Monday, making routine and spectacular plays throughout the Bulls’ victory. During his postgame interview, the second-year forward said he was likely done for the remainder of Summer League. Given how well Buzelis played, the Bulls have likely seen all they need from the 2024 lottery pick. Buzelis’ status as a starter should not change once the regular season begins, and he’s worthy of a late-round flier in standard leagues.
Lachlan Olbrich

CHI Power Forward

Lachlan Olbrich recorded 12 points (5-of-11 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, one assist and one steal in Saturday’s loss to the Kings.

Olbrich, the 55th overall pick in last month’s draft, has already agreed to a two-way deal. The 6-foot-9 Australian will likely spend most of his time in the G League next season, but the summer league reps can be invaluable for a developing player. There’s little need to plan on selecting Olbrich in redraft leagues, but he’s worth a watch for dynasty league managers.
Noa Essengue

CHI Small Forward

Noa Essengue (quad) is out for the remainder of Saturday’s game against the Kings.

Essengue’s Saturday evening ended painfully, as he suffered a right quad contusion during the third quarter. The first-round pick played 19 minutes, finishing with 12 points, 10 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one blocked shot. Essengue’s fantasy prospects for the 2025-26 season depend somewhat on Patrick Williams, who has failed to provide consistent production throughout his Bulls career. Even if he does not offer much fantasy value as a rookie, Essengue will be worth having in dynasty leagues.
Tre Jones

CHI Point Guard #30

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports the Bulls and G Tre Jones have agreed to a three-year, $24 million deal.

Acquired from the Spurs just before the February trade deadline, Jones will remain in the Windy City for the foreseeable future. With Josh Giddey a restricted free agent, the Bulls have secured a point guard in case they lose their starter. Jones started nine of the 18 games he played for Chicago last season, averaging 11.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.1 steals in 25.3 minutes. Jones was most effective as a streamer in fantasy leagues, and that would only change in 2025-26 if the Bulls were to lose Giddey.
Isaac Okoro

CHI Shooting Guard #35

Isaac Okoro has been traded to the Bulls in exchange for Lonzo Ball.

Okoro has been a solid wing defender for Cleveland since they drafted him with the No. 5 pick in 2020. Now, he’ll get a fresh start in Chicago, where he’ll join a crowded wing rotation. Kevin Huerter was the starting small forward at the end of last season, and the Bulls just added Noa Essengue in the draft. Okoro will likely be a reserve wing that helps out the defense, but he’s never been much of a contributor in fantasy basketball.
Lonzo Ball

CLE Point Guard #2

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports Lonzo Ball has been traded to the Cavaliers in a deal that will send Isaac Okoro to the Bulls.

Injuries have limited Lonzo in recent seasons, but he’s still an impactful player when he’s on the floor. Now, he’ll be a strong reserve playmaking option behind Darius Garland. Ball’s addition likely means that Ty Jerome will sign elsewhere in free agency after being one of the best bench options in the league last season. Ball’s departure should also open up minutes for Ayo Dosunmu off the bench as the primary reserve in the backcourt. Reports from April indicated that Ball should be ready to go for training camp after missing the final two months of last season with a wrist injury.
Lachlan Olbrich

CHI Power Forward

Bulls selected Lachlan Olbrich with the No. 55 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.

While the Lakers made the selection, Olbrich’s draft rights were traded to the Bulls. The 6-foot-9 Olbrich, who can be used as a power forward or small-ball center, spent one season at UC Riverside (2022-23) before returning to his native Australia to play for the Illawarra Hawks. In 29 games, he averaged 8.7 points and 3.8 rebounds in helping the Hawks win the NBL championship. A solid performance at the NBA Draft Combine in May got him on more radars as a potential second-round pick, with Olbrich’s toughness and skill set standing out. According to ESPN’s Jonathan Givony, he’ll be on a two-way contract next season, likely making Olbrich a non-factor in fantasy leagues.
