Tre

Jones

Jones, who recorded his second double-double of the season in Wednesday’s win over the Cavaliers, is dealing with left hamstring tightness. If he can’t play and the Bulls remain without Ayo Dosunmu, there may be a few more minutes for Dalen Terry or Jevon Carter. Neither player is worth streaming in that scenario.

Wednesday’s performance was a reminder that Jones doesn’t necessarily need to start to provide solid fantasy value. He finished with his second double-double of the season, matching his season-high in the assist category. Of course, it should be noted that Chicago did not have Ayo Dosunmu (thumb), which freed up additional minutes on the perimeter. Jones has played at least 24 minutes in each of his last eight appearances, so playing time has not been a significant issue in recent games.

While White is back on the injury report, fantasy managers should assume that he will be able to go on Sunday. If, for some reason, he cannot play, Tre Jones is the player to target for streaming value. Despite White and Giddey being available, Jones played 25 minutes off the bench on Friday and was part of Chicago’s closing lineup in Charlotte.

After missing the Bulls’ last three games, Jones is good to go in Charlotte. However, he will be limited to 24 minutes. That restriction, combined with the presence of starters Josh Giddey and Coby White, makes Jones a player who can be left on the waiver wire in most leagues.

While White is dealing with some tightness in his right calf, the probable tag suggests that he will ultimately be available on Friday. With Tre Jones also probable, he is the likely replacement if White cannot play against the Hornets. Jones is only worth rostering when allowed to start.

Jones practiced fully on Thursday for the second straight day and is now expected to suit up on Friday. He has missed three games, and the Bulls can certainly use him with both Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) and Kevin Huerter (hamstring) still out.

Bulls head coach Billy Donovan confirmed that neither Ayo Dosunmu nor Kevin Huerter will travel to Charlotte for Friday’s game. Dosunmu returned to action on Sunday after missing one game with his thumb injury, but then he was unable to practice on Monday and will now miss Friday’s game. It remains to be seen how much longer he will miss. With Tre Jones also out, Jevon Carter has seen an uptick in playing time.

Jones will miss a third consecutive game, resulting in more playing time for Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter. However, that does not make either player worth streaming in fantasy leagues.

Jones has missed Chicago’s last two games with an ankle injury and is likely to miss a third on Sunday. While Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter have received bumps to their minutes, neither has been consistent enough to be fully trusted in deep fantasy leagues.

Jones will miss a second straight game, and with Ayo Dosunmu also sidelined, Chicago will be thin at guard. Coby White will be available on a minutes restriction, which means Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter should see a bump in minutes.
