Chicago Bulls

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. Giddey sprained his right ankle on Monday night against Toronto and was forced to miss Thursday's game against Boston. Chicago didn't need him on Thursday as they skated to a 117-108 upset win against the Celtics. Giddey has averaged 11.9 PPG, 6.4 RPG and 6.9 APG this season. While the points aren't intriguing, he's bringing fantasy value in terms of rebounds and assists. If he's active fantasy managers should only expect value from his rebounds and assists. In his only matchup against Boston this season he scored just four points but put up eight rebounds and nine assists. If he misses Saturday, expect Patrick Williams and Ayo Dosunmu to get extended playing time.

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (ankle) will not play against Boston on Thursday. After injuring his right ankle on Monday against Toronto, Giddey will be forced to miss his first game of the season. Zach LaVine (back) will return to the court on Thursday and should handle more playmaking duties with Giddey unavailable. Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu, and Lonzo Ball are poised to soak in some of his minutes as well. At the same time, the door is open for Talen Horton-Tucker to remain in the rotation following his 15-point performance in 25 minutes on Monday.

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (ankle) exited Monday night's game against the Toronto Raptors early and won't return after injuring his ankle. Giddey went to contest a Gradey Dick three-point attempt and immediately grabbed at his right ankle before going to the floor and was writhing in pain. The 22-year-old was shown being helped to the locker room, pointing towards this injury being potentially serious. If Giddey is forced to miss an extended period of time, it's unclear who would take over in the starting lineup for Giddey as Patrick Williams, Lonzo Ball and Matas Buzelis all could fit the bill. One starter who could pick up additional assists is Ayo Dosunmu, who's shown an ability to facilitate Chicago's offense in past seasons.
