Josh Giddey's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Darnell Mayberry of The Athletic reports that Chicago Bulls guardJosh Giddey(ankle) will play against the Cavaliers on Tuesday. The 21-year-old guard has been battling an ankle injury throughout the offseason but hasn't had any setbacks most recently and has taken contact in practice. Giddey could see plenty of action playing for the rebuilding Bulls and may have some fantasy value as the season progresses.

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (ankle) was on the court for 5-on-5 scrimmage during Friday's practice. The young guard has been battling with an ankle injury throughout the offseason. Luckily, it appears Giddey is back to full health which is great news as the regular season gets closer. Giddey figures to take over as the starting point guard in Chicago. However, Lonzo Ball (knee) and Ayo Dosunmu should also be in the mix for playing time at the point guard spot. The rebuilding Bulls should be able to give Giddey enough playing time for him to carve out fantasy value for himself.

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (ankle) took another step forward in his recovery, participating in contact drills during Wednesday's practice, according to head coach Billy Donovan. Giddey, who has been rehabbing a ruptured ligament in his ankle sustained during the Paris Olympics, had missed contact drills for two months. After being limited to a non-contact session the previous day, this marks a positive sign as the Bulls prepare for their preseason game in Cleveland just six days away. The team will continue to closely monitor Giddey's progress as he ramps up his involvement in training camp.
