Chicago Bulls DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Chicago Bulls point guard Lonzo Ball (wrist) has been ruled out for Tuesday's clash against Washington but appears to be ready to jump back into action on Wednesday versus Orlando. According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Ball is targeting a return against the Magic. Ball has been out since Oct. 28 with a right wrist sprain. He made his first three NBA appearances in 33 months at the start of the campaign, averaging 4.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 3.7 assists in 15.7 minutes. The Bulls will continue to manage his workload once Ball is back, limiting his fantasy appeal.

Chicago Bulls forward Talen Horton-Tucker (thumb) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards due to a right thumb sprain. The 24-year-old's role has been sporadic this season, but he typically sees more minutes when someone is out of the rotation. With Patrick Williams (foot) sidelined, Horton-Tucker could see an increased role off the bench, which boosts his value. In his most recent game against Memphis, he played 18 minutes, contributing 10 points and five assists. His performance remains unpredictable, but the opportunity for added minutes should benefit his fantasy value.

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (foot) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards, marking his fourth consecutive absence due to inflammation in his surgically repaired left foot. His status for Wednesday's matchup against the Orlando Magic is still uncertain. Williams, who averages 28.7 minutes per game, has been a solid contributor with 9.9 points and 5.0 rebounds per game, though his health has occasionally been a concern. He had a strong stretch recently, including a double-double performance on November 11th against Cleveland, with 13 points and 10 rebounds.

Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball (wrist) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Ball, who has not played since Oct. 28, has been dealing with a lingering knee issue, and his wrist injury has further delayed his return. While his doubtful status suggests he is inching closer to game action, it's likely that Ball will be on a minutes restriction once cleared to play, as the team remains cautious with his health. So far this season, Ball has averaged 16.0 minutes per game, 4.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 3.7 assists.

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (neck) will suit up ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. As expected, White will play after being listed as probable on the injury report due to neck tightness. The expectation is that White should have his normal workload during this game. He has been a fairly consistent scoring option this season, so fantasy managers should make sure to get him back in their lineups ahead of tip-off.
