Collin

Sexton

Sexton, 27, is a career 18.3 points per game scorer. After a rough start to last season with the Hornets where he averaged 14.2 points, he was back up to averaging 17.5 points with the Bulls after a midseason trade. Sexton fits into the Lakers room mid-level exception as the team has exhausted its spending power early in the offseason with a flurry of moves that saw them land Walker Kessler, Sandro Mamukelashvili, Quentin Grimes as well. Sexton’s fantasy value hasn’t changed much with him joining a Lakers team with a crowded backcourt.

While Bulls fans hoping to see their team’s draft lottery odds improve more would have preferred to see less of Sexton after his acquisition, he recorded solid numbers on most nights. Over the final month of the regular season, he offered fifth-round category league value. Sexton will be an unrestricted free agent in the summer; his fantasy outlook in 2026-27 will depend on where he lands.

Sexton was initially listed as probable, so his availability against the Mavericks on Sunday isn’t much of a surprise. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) still out, Sexton is a must-start player in active fantasy leagues.

Of the three, Sexton has been the most impactful in fantasy basketball. He’s the one who needs to be rostered in active fantasy leagues for Sunday’s finale. Olbrich has moved into the starting lineup with Guerschon Yabusele and Nick Richards out for the season, most recently grabbing nine rebounds in Friday’s loss to the Magic. As for Williams, the former lottery pick logged 27 minutes on Friday, scoring eight points on 3-of-10 shooting.

Simons is one of a handful of Bulls that will sit out the last two games of the regular season. Collin Sexton will see plenty of minutes with Josh Giddey (hamstring) also out while Rob Dillingham should have a significant bench role.

Giddey is set to close the season having missed the final five games with a hamstring injury. Collin Sexton should continue to start with Giddey sidelined while Tre Jones will also have an increased role.

Bulls head coach Billy Donovan’s willingness to continue to play his available veterans likely benefited fantasy managers who rostered Sexton and Tre Jones. The former had an excellent night in the nation’s capital, shooting over 50 percent from the field and finishing a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Sexton has scored in double figures in 10 consecutive games, and the 27 points were the most in a game for him since he tallied 28 in a March 8 loss to the Kings.

Giddey will miss a third straight contest, and Collin Sexton should continue to see additional run in his absence. Tre Jones should be called upon more as well.

Sexton is good to go after initially being probable for Tuesday’s game. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) still out, Sexton should remain in the starting lineup, which raises his fantasy ceiling for those competing in active leagues.

Giddey will miss a second straight game, which should allow Collin Sexton to get another start. Sexton logged 31 minutes in Sunday’s loss and contributed 18 points and nine rebounds.
