White’s scoring has been hit or miss recently as he has multiple games this month without even reaching double figures. On Tuesday, the 25-year-old point guard was mostly hitting with 24 points on 15 field goal attempts. White got very hot from behind the three-point line with eight minutes left in the fourth quarter, sinking four threes in a row in 1:07 of game-time. He’s provided ninth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Bulls have two more games this week, against the Timberwolves and Celtics.

Vučević sealed the victory for the Bulls with an incredible sequence of plays with about 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter. The 35-year-old center ran the length of the floor and had a dunk in transition, had a block on the next defensive possession and then hit a three-pointer to put Chicago up 110-89. Vučević has provided first-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Bulls have two more games this week, including matchups with the Timberwolves and Celtics.

Buzelis entered play Tuesday as one of four players this season with at least 60 blocks and at least 60 three-pointers. He added to his total in both categories against the Clippers with two blocks and four three-pointers. Buzelis has provided sixth-round per game over the last two weeks. The Bulls will be back on the floor Thursday for a matchup with the Timberwolves.

Sharpe was not available for Monday’s loss to the Suns, which factored into starting center Nic Claxton playing 37 minutes. While Danny Wolf and Jalen Wilson can absorb a few of the minutes that would usually go to Sharpe, his availability affects Claxton, who should already be rostered in standard leagues, the most.

Thomas did not play in Monday’s loss to the Suns, as it was the second game of a back-to-back. He’ll likely be used in a reserve role on Wednesday, which does the guard no favors in terms of fantasy value or his hitting free agency in June.

Williams has reached double figures in four of his last five appearances. However, Monday’s game was his first since January 7, after he missed six games due to illness. Williams’ season-long fantasy value has not been good enough to make him a player worth rostering, and one solid effort won’t change that.

In addition to recording a season-high in assists, Mann hit double figures in points for the first time in his last eight appearances. While he did start on Monday, the veteran wing only played 26 minutes. Therein lies the issue for Mann, along with the inconsistent production. Getting the younger players minutes will only become more of a priority for the Nets moving forward, so there isn’t much to gain from rostering Mann.

Claxton is averaging career-highs in points and assists, with the latter category being more surprising. The Nets’ center, who entered Monday averaging 4.1 assists per game, has recorded four or more in six of his last seven appearances. Unfortunately, Claxton has shot 40 percent from the foul line over the past two weeks, which limits his value in roster builds where that category is not being punted.

Porter needed 23 shots to score his 23 points, with three-point shooting being the reason. A 40.5 percent shooter for the season, the Nets forward was 2-of-10 in Monday’s defeat. Porter’s 8-of-13 night from inside the arc ensured that his overall field-goal percentage didn’t take too big of a hit, and the overall stat line was a good one. As always, the concern for fantasy managers is Porter’s availability during playoff weeks, especially if he isn’t moved at or before the February 5 trade deadline.

Giddey has been sidelined since December, but there is a chance he returns to the lineup to take on the Clippers.

However, if Giddey returns, Jones will head back to the bench, which will eliminate the streaming value he held.

Due to an illness (four games) and conditioning (two), Williams has missed the Nets’ last six games. His return on Monday gives the Nets added perimeter depth, which is vital since Egor Dëmin and Cam Thomas are out. Given the time missed, Williams will likely be under a minutes restriction in his first game back.

White fueled Chicago’s offense early on with 16 first-half points as they shot 60 percent (12-of-20) from three-point range and 60 percent overall (28-of-47) to take a 70-51 halftime lead. The 25-year-old slashing guard has struggled to return to form after dealing with a calf injury earlier this month, but he looked sharp in this one, knocking down 7-of-11 attempts from beyond the arc. He’ll continue to play a significant role with plenty of creation possessions while Josh Giddey (hamstring) remains sidelined. The Bulls have a three-game week on tap featuring matchups against the Clippers, Timberwolves and Celtics.

The Nets snapped a five-game losing streak in Friday’s win over the Bulls but they didn’t fare so well during Sunday night’s rematch with leading scorer Michael Porter Jr. sitting out for load management reasons. Their issues weren’t limited to the offensive end as they allowed Chicago to shoot 52 percent from the floor and surrendered 124 points in a one-sided affair. Traore was one of the few bright spots as he did most of his damage in garbage time, knocking down 4-of-5 from beyond the arc to finish with a season-high 16 points off the bench. He’s earned some additional run but doesn’t offer enough of a role to be a viable streaming option for fantasy managers. The Nets have a four-game week coming up that features showdown against the Suns, Knicks, Celtics and Clippers.

Vučević got off to a strong start with 11 points and seven boards in the opening half and was able to cruise to his 17th double-double through 41 games. The 35-year-old veteran center has been a fantasy force over the past two weeks, averaging 19.3 points, 10.6 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 0.4 steals and 1.4 blocks during that seven-game span.

Buzelis has experienced an uptick in scoring opportunities over the last two weeks, averaging 13.1 field goals over his last seven contests, resulting in 17.0 points during that span. The 21-year-old forward remains a true work in progress, but he’s shown flashes of big-time scoring upside, while also chipping in a handful of rebounds and assists, which gives him immediate appeal in deeper fantasy formats.

Tre Jones, the usual replacement for Josh Giddey, will come off the bench on Sunday. He’s been replaced in the starting five by Smith, who gives Chicago a bigger frontcourt playing alongside Vučević. White will be the lone point guard on the floor in this lineup, which may raise his assist ceiling.

Dosunmu continues to be instant offense off the bench for the Bulls. The 25-year-old point guard only played 20 minutes against the Nets, but had 18 points in a relatively low-scoring game.

Vučević and the Bulls were in a letdown spot against the Nets after the 35-year-old center dropped 35 points and made a game-winning shot against the Jazz on Wednesday. While he was 9-of-14 from the field, Vučević probably should’ve taken more shots as he finished with just 19 points in Friday’s loss. He’s still provided first-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Bulls have a rematch with the Nets on Sunday.

Clowney had just six points in 31 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Pelicans, but bounced back in a big way against the Bulls on Friday. The 21-year-old power forward got off to a great start with 12 points and seven rebounds in the first half. He finished with 23 points and 11 rebounds to secure his first double-double this season. Clowney has provided 10th-round per game value over the last two weeks, but it’s games like Friday where he flashes high-ceiling potential that make him a more interesting player in dynasty formats.

Porter drove the lane and scored with five seconds left in regulation to give the Nets the lead. The victory was sealed as Chicago failed to score again in the final seconds. Porter continues to play at a high level amid trade rumors, which will likely only ramp up until the trade deadline. He’s provided second-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Nets improved to just 12-27 on the season with the win, so a trade to a contender might be necessary to avoid Porter being shutdown by the Nets later in the season.

Back in the rotation after sitting out Monday’s loss to the Mavericks, Thomas was limited to 24 minutes against the Pelicans. With this being the guard’s contract year, the role has to be frustrating. Fantasy managers can take solace in the assist tally, as Thomas’ five helpers were the most in a game for him since he dished out nine on October 24. Those who have him rostered must be hoping for a trade by the February 5 deadline, because the situation could become more dire from a fantasy standpoint if he isn’t.

Making his third start and second in as many games, Powell dropped a season-high point total on Wednesday. Add in the rebounds and field-goal percentage, and this was a solid effort from the rookie.

Remember when Dëmin’s shooting was the most significant question that draft analysts had about him? The rookie guard has shot the ball well from three, knocking down nearly 40 percent of his 6.1 attempts per game. Dëmin knocked down five on Wednesday while also recording five assists. Rostered in 18 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has been a top-75 player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. There’s no need to wait for the trade deadline to add Dëmin; do it now.

Porter, who has scored at least 20 points in nine of his last ten appearances, had a chance to send Wednesday’s game into overtime. Unfortunately for him, his shot from a few steps inside of half-court was wide left, extending the Nets’ losing streak to five games. Porter has been one of the bright spots for Brooklyn, playing well enough that his name has been mentioned in trade rumors. And for the sake of fantasy managers hoping to count on MPJ during the playoff weeks, a trade may be needed to ensure that he doesn’t get shut down late in the season.
