Okoro

Okoro is likely to miss an eighth consecutive game as he continues to deal with left lumbar radiculopathy. While the absence of his production does not affect fantasy basketball, the Bulls have been forced to make do without their best perimeter defender. Julian Phillips has moved into the starting lineup, but he is not worth picking up in fantasy leagues.

Okoro is set to miss his seventh consecutive game with a back injury. With Ayo Dosunmu also out, expect the Bulls to lean on Coby White. Julian Phillips could also see additional minutes off the bench, but isn’t worth streaming.

Okoro has missed Chicago’s last six games, and the doubtful tag suggests he’ll miss a seventh on Friday. His availability does not affect fantasy basketball, but it does impact the minutes available to Ayo Dosunmu and Julian Phillips. While Dosunmu should already be rostered in some 12-team leagues, Phillips is not productive enough to merit streaming.

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.

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.

Okoro will miss a fifth straight game, which won’t impact many fantasy lineups. However, his continued absence will leave a starting spot open, which has lately been filled by Kevin Huerter, who will continue to be worth streaming with Okoro unavailable.

Okoro has missed the last three games with left lumbar radiculopathy. The 24-year-old small forward remains without a timetable for return. Ayo Dosunmu is probable, but should start again Saturday against the Pacers.

Friday’s game will be the third that Okoro has missed due to left lumbar radiculopathy, and he does not have a return timeline. Ayo Dosunmu has been the replacement in the starting lineup, and that will remain the case on Friday. Even when Okoro is healthy, Dosunmu has been the superior option for fantasy managers.

Okoro has missed Chicago’s last two games, and the doubtful tag suggests the streak will reach three on Friday. Ayo Dosunmu has been the replacement in the starting lineup and will retain that role. Already worth rostering in deep leagues, Ayo is worth considering in some 12-team formats as well.

Okoro will miss a second straight game, leaving an opening in the starting lineup. Ayo Dosunmu has moved into the starting lineup, further enhancing the fantasy value of a player who was already worth rostering in deeper leagues. If Dosunmu is on your waiver wire, add him ahead of Monday’s slate.
