Sunday’s game will be the eighth that Okoro has missed, which opens up a spot in the starting lineup. While Julian Phillips was the most recent replacement, it was because the Bulls did not have Ayo Dosunmu. Dosunmu is probable to play on Sunday, so he’ll likely move into the starting lineup if cleared.

Terry and Williams are on track to play against the Warriors. However, even with the absence of other rotation players, neither is in a position to affect fantasy basketball. While Williams and Terry can be held onto in dynasty leagues, there isn’t a need to hold onto either player in most redraft leagues.

Okoro is likely to miss an eighth consecutive game as he continues to deal with left lumbar radiculopathy. While the absence of his production does not affect fantasy basketball, the Bulls have been forced to make do without their best perimeter defender. Julian Phillips has moved into the starting lineup, but he is not worth picking up in fantasy leagues.

Dosunmu did not play in Friday’s loss to the Pacers, freeing up rotation minutes for Jevon Carter and Dalen Terry. While the former hit four three-pointers and scored 14 points, neither player is worth the streaming risk in most leagues, especially since Coby White is on track to play.

Collins made his season debut on Friday, playing 21 minutes off the bench in a loss to the Pacers. He should take on the backup center responsibilities again on Sunday, but the playing time will likely decrease if the Bulls remain competitive. Starter Nikola Vučević played 26 minutes against Indiana.

White returned after missing three games with a calf injury. The 25-year-old point guard played just 26 minutes due to a minutes restriction, but still led the Bulls is points and field goal attempts. The Bulls close out Week 7 with a matchup against the Warriors on Sunday and White should see more minutes then.

Siakam remains the top option on the Pacers as they navigate this season without Tyrese Haliburton. The 31-year-old power forward has expanded his game to include three-point shooting and knocked down five threes against the Bulls on Friday. The Pacers are off for the rest of the weekend and have three games on the schedule in Week 8.

Terry was initially listed as probable, so his availability isn’t surprising. With Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) and Tre Jones (ankle) sidelined and Coby White (calf) on a minutes restriction, Terry could end up playing a large role. However, that doesn’t make him an appealing streamer outside of deep formats.

As expected, Williams will suit up against Indiana. Chicago is dealing with plenty of injuries, which could open the door for a few extra minutes for Williams, though he hasn’t been able to produce much in the box score this season.

Dosunmu played 36 minutes while replacing Coby White in the starting lineup Wednesday, but he’ll sit out with White returning to the starting lineup against the Pacers on Friday.

White will be back after a three-game absence, but he will be limited to around 24 minutes. It wouldn’t be surprising if he came off the bench, though with Ayo Dosunmu and Tre Jones both out, he could end up starting. Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter should play increased roles.

White said on Wednesday that he hopes to be available for Friday’s game, but he was more certain about his chances of playing on Sunday against the Warriors. Ayo Dosunmu played 36 minutes as his replacement in the starting lineup on Wednesday and would be in line for a similar workload on Friday. Due to a sprained thumb, Dosunmu is also questionable for Friday.

Smith is on track to miss a fourth consecutive game with a strained left hamstring. Who assumes the backup center minutes depends on the availability of Zach Collins (wrist), who is questionable.

Okoro has missed Chicago’s last six games, and the doubtful tag suggests he’ll miss a seventh on Friday.

Jones did not play in Wednesday’s loss to the Nets and appears likely to miss another game on Friday. How impactful his absence would be depends on Coby White’s availability, who also sat out Chicago’s most recent game.

Dosunmu is dealing with a sprained thumb on his right (shooting) hand. Due to the absences of multiple players, he has taken on an expanded role within the Bulls’ rotation, providing reliable late-round value whether he starts or comes off the bench.

Sheppard suffered a strained left calf during Wednesday’s loss to the Nuggets and will miss some time.

Giddey’s triple-double was his fifth of the season and 23rd of his career. The 23-year-old shooting guard was highly efficient with 28 points on 14 attempts and 11 assists to just three turnovers. Giddey has returned fifth-round value so far this season.

Siakam remains a solid scorer as he’s averaging 24.1 points per game this year, though his overall fantasy value hasn’t lived up to preseason expectations. The 31-year-old power forward was drafted in the third-round, but is providing seventh-round value so far this year. Siakam also comes with the risk of being shut down on a struggling Pacers team that’s going through a rebuilding year.

Olbrich has been upgraded from probable to available, and he will once again serve as the backup center. While this will be valuable playing time for the rookie center, he’s unlikely to get the minutes needed to impact fantasy basketball. He should only be rostered in dynasty leagues.

No surprise here, as Phillips was initially listed as probable and is now officially available for Wednesday’s game against the Nets.

While Essengue has not been part of the Bulls’ rotation when healthy, he will miss out on some valuable opportunities, even though that was more likely to happen with the team’s G League affiliate than in Chicago.

Due to a sprained left ankle, Furphy has not appeared in a game since November 3.

Huff has reached double figures in five straight, with Monday’s point total being his highest since November 19 (season-high 20 vs. Charlotte). He’s been the starting center the last three games, with Isaiah Jackson (6/3/0/1/2 in 16 minutes) being pushed to the bench. While iJax is the Pacers’ former first-round pick, Huff has been more consistently productive, and he’s received more opportunities as a result.

Nembhard surpassed the 20-point mark for the first time in five games on Monday. In fact, after scoring 32 points in the Pacers’ November 21 loss to Cleveland, he shot 11-of-34 from the field in the following three games. Before the season, Nembhard was a player whom many fantasy managers believed could safely provide top-100 value. Unfortunately, an early-season injury put him on the shelf for a few weeks, stunting his progress.

With the Cavaliers regaining control of Monday’s game early in the fourth quarter, Siakam lost out on a few minutes due to Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle pulling the plug. Given how many games the Pacers have lost, this has to be a frustrating season for Siakam and, by extension, those who have him on their fantasy rosters. Having entered the season with a third-round Yahoo! ADP, he’s ranked outside the top-75 in eight- and nine-cat formats. And with Indiana being 4-17, buying low comes with the risk of “Spicy P” being shut down later in the season, as the Pacers regained control of their 2026 first-round pick via a June trade with the Pelicans.

After playing 20 minutes off the bench in Saturday’s win over the Bulls, Walker is back in the Pacers’ starting lineup. He replaces Ben Sheppard, who will play rotation minutes off the bench.

Jackson was bumped to the bench for Friday’s game, and he wasn’t effective in that role. However, he was able to make a large impact in this one. Both Pacers bigs had success, as Jay Huff, who started at center, contributed 14 points, four blocks and four triples. Chicago allows a lot of paint points, so this was a favorable matchup, but it was still good to see both centers turn in strong stat lines. However, this is likely a one-time thing and not the start of a productive run for both.

Following a one-game absence with a quad injury, Nembhard was back to take on Chicago. He immediately returned to the starting unit, which pushed Jarace Walker to the bench and limited him to 20 minutes. As expected, Nembhard is averaging career highs in points, assists and three-pointers with Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) out for the season. This wasn’t a standout game, but it was good to see him log 32 minutes after an absence.

For the first time this season, the Pacers have a winning streak. Siakam scored 24 points in consecutive games, which resulted in back-to-back wins. Friday’s game was a blowout, but this one ended with Siakam hitting a contested mid-range shot with .1 seconds remaining. It was a fantastic shot to close out an exciting game, and Siakam continues to cook. He has scored at least 20 points in seven of their last eight games, and he has two steals in four straight.

Nembhard is back after sitting out Friday’s win over the Wizards. However, it is Jarace Walker who will head to the bench, with Sheppard remaining with the starters.

Nembhard will be good to go after a one-game absence against Washington on Friday. Ben Sheppard started in his place, but he’ll head back to the bench with Nembhard back. T.J. McConnell should still fill out the backup point guard minutes, so he shouldn’t be impacted much.

Mathurin started the season by scoring at least 20 points in five straight games. He followed that up with 14 and 15 points on sub-40 percent shooting over Indiana’s previous two games before getting back on track in this one. Mathurin had high expectations entering this season with Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) sidelined, and he should be able to supply plenty of buckets for the remainder of the year.

After scoring a season-low 11 points on Wednesday, Siakam got back on track in this one to help lead Indiana to a lopsided victory. He has scored at least 20 points in six of his last seven games, and he continues to shoot the ball efficiently. Through their first nine games, he shot at least 50 percent from the floor just once; over their last nine games, he has shot below 50 percent just twice. This was also his first double-double since October, which was enough to help the Pacers get their third win of the year.

McConnell didn’t get the starting nod with Andrew Nembhard (quad) sidelined, but he was still able to make a strong contribution off the bench. He led the team in assists and scored in double figures for a fifth straight game. He is rostered in just 19 percent of Yahoo! leagues but has provided fifth-round value during this stretch. If Nembhard remains out against the Bulls on Saturday, McConnell should see a nice boost in value once again, especially if the game is closer.

After scoring 21 points in Monday’s loss to the Pistons, Walker had another solid performance on Wednesday. He recorded a complete stat line and reached double figures in points for the second consecutive game for the third time this season.

After scoring at least 21 points in his first three games back from injury, Mathurin’s production has slowed down over the last two. Against the Pistons and Raptors, he totaled 29 points on 8-of-28 shooting from the field. While most players would be able to point to three-point shooting as the reason for their woes, that has not been the case for Mathurin, who has gone 3-of-15 (20 percent) from two over this two-game stretch. However, Friday’s game against the Wizards could be the slump-buster for Mathurin, given Washington’s poor defense.

Despite coming off the bench, McConnell can still be of value to fantasy managers, especially those competing in deeper leagues. The points, rebounds and assists were solid on Wednesday, and he’s ranked just outside the top-150 in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. McConnell is worth rostering in deeper leagues, especially while the Pacers are willing to play their veterans in a season that has already gone off the rails.

Nembhard struggled with his shot on Monday, but volumed his way into double figures as a scorer. He also was the Pacers’ best facilitator on the night and was very disruptive on the defensive end, tallying as many assists against the Pistons as he had combined up until Monday’s game. He’ll likely be better as a scorer moving forward and should remain solid as a passer. Any consistent production on the defensive end would give Nembhard a boost as far as fantasy production is concerned.

Less than a week after being removed from the starting lineup, Walker came off the bench and finished as the Pacers’ second-leading scorer on the evening. He was one of two Indiana players to reach the 20-point mark and led the team in three-pointers in the process. Monday’s scoring total was only his fourth time reaching double figures during November. If he can sustain this type of production moving forward, it won’t matter if he comes off the bench or starts.

The Pacers fell to 2-15 on the season, but Siakam delivered another strong performance. He went over 20 points for the fifth straight game and logged his first multiple-blocks, multiple-steals game of the season, while leading all Pacers in rebounds along the way. Siakam continues to be one of the lone bright spots for Indiana amidst a rough start to their season. He also remains one of the more productive forwards across fantasy leagues. Even with the Pacers’ poor record, there’s no reason for fantasy managers to believe a dropoff in production for Siakam is near.
