Guerschon Yabusele

CHI Forward #28

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Guerschon Yabusele (calf) is probable for Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Due to a left calf contusion, Yabusele is not guaranteed to play on Saturday. However, the probable tag suggests that he’s closer to playing than not. With Jalen Smith back in the lineup and Nick Richards also available, Yabusele’s absence would not affect fantasy basketball.
Jaden Ivey

CHI Guard #31

Jaden Ivey (knee) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Ivey is dealing with a left knee issue, and he did not see any action in Thursday’s loss to the Raptors. Given his concerning words after the defeat that he’s unlikely to be the player he was before the left leg injury, this may not be a short-term issue for Ivey. His absence won’t affect fantasy basketball in the short term, but Ivey’s value in dynasty leagues will take a hit.
Isaac Okoro

CHI Forward-Guard #35

Isaac Okoro had 16 points (6-of-12 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), five rebounds, one assist and three three-pointers in Thursday’s loss to the Raptors.

Okoro missed the Bulls’ last game before the All-Star break with left knee soreness, but returned for the game against the Raptors Thursday. The 25-year-old small forward had 16 points and made three three-pointers. It was a good offensive game for Okoro, but he isn’t consistent enough to be worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.
Josh Giddey

CHI Guard #3

Josh Giddey had five points (1-of-7 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block in Thursday’s loss to the Raptors.

Giddey missed eight games prior to the All-Star break before returning with five points in Thursday’s loss to the Bulls. The 23-year-old guard was understandably rusty given the amount of time off and managed to play only 21 minutes. The Bulls have two more games this week with a back-to-back against the Pistons on Saturday and Knicks on Sunday.
Anfernee Simons

CHI Guard #22

Anfernee Simons had 20 points (7-of-18 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), one rebound, one assist and four three-pointers in Thursday’s loss to the Raptors.

Simons started and played 31 minutes even with Josh Giddey back from a hamstring injury. The 26-year-old shooting guard had 20 points on 7-of-18 shooting from the field and four three-pointers. If you need volume scoring, Simons is your guy for the rest of the season.
Jalen Smith

CHI Forward-Center #25

Josh Giddey, Anfernee Simons, Isaac Okoro, Matas Buzelis and Jalen Smith will start Thursday’s game against the Raptors.

Giddey, Okoro and Smith are back after missing time before the All-Star break due to injury. As a result of their returns, Collin Sexton, Patrick Williams and Guerschon Yabusele head to the bench. Simons and Buzelis are the holdovers from the quintet that started Chicago’s February 11 loss to the Celtics.
Jalen Smith

CHI Forward-Center #25

Jalen Smith (calf) is available to play against the Raptors on Thursday.

Smith will return to the floor for the first time since February 5, looking to pick up where he left off. Smith has scored in double figures in his last 12 appearances, showcasing his versatility both inside and outside the arc. He’s also done a nice job on the glass over that time and should be considered a double-double threat on Thursday.
Tre Jones

CHI Guard #30

Tre Jones (hamstring) is available for Thursday’s game against the Raptors.

Jones is back after missing Chicago’s last 11 games with a strained left hamstring. However, with the Bulls adding Anfernee Simons, Jaden Ivey, Collin Sexton and Rob Dillingham at the trade deadline, along with Josh Giddey’s return, there may not be enough room for Jones to affect fantasy basketball.
Josh Giddey

CHI Guard #3

Josh Giddey (hamstring) is available for Thursday’s game against the Raptors.

Giddey is set to return after missing the last eight Bulls games before the All-Star break due to a hamstring injury. The 23-year-old point guard was upgraded to probable Thursday afternoon, so his availability isn’t a surprise. It’s possible that Giddey is brought off the bench in his first game back, which would allow Collin Sexton and Anfernee Simons to continue starting.
Josh Giddey

CHI Guard #3

Josh Giddey (hamstring) is probable to play against the Raptors on Thursday.

Giddey, who missed Chicago’s final eight games prior to the All-Star break, is now expected to return to the lineup after initially being listed as questionable. They brought him off the bench in his return following his most recent extended absence, which could happen again in this game. That could allow Collin Sexton and Anfernee Simons to remain in the starting unit.
