Giannis missed Wednesday’s loss against the Hornets, but will return from his knee injury on Friday as the Bucks look for payback. Expect Kyle Kuzma to shift to the bench with Antetokounmpo back in the starting lineup. Giannis is off to a great start as he’s averaging 33.4 points, 11.9 rebounds and 6.2 assists in 10 games this season.

White has yet to appear in a game in 2025-26, but he is nearing a return after logging his first full practice of the season. Giddey has missed two straight games, but he’s trending in the right direction. The Bulls’ next games will be Sunday against the Jazz and Monday against the Nuggets and White and Giddey may make an appearance in one of those two contests.

Giannis missed Wednesday’s game against Charlotte but should be available for the rematch. Kyle Kuzma started in place of Antetokounmpo but will likely be pushed back to a reserve role. Giannis will look to help the Bucks get revenge after losing on Wednesday.

One game removed from knocking down four three-pointers, Huerter missed all four of his attempts on Wednesday. However, he shot 10-of-13 from inside the arc, resulting in his second consecutive 20-point game. Huerter’s fantasy value depends on the availability of Josh Giddey, who’s missed the last two games with a sprained ankle. If Giddey is available for Sunday’s game in Utah, it will be safe to drop Huerter onto the waiver wire.

Still ranked outside the top-200 in eight- and nine-cat formats, Okoro has not done enough to merit being rostered in most fantasy leagues. However, he’s capable of having the occasional productive night, as was the case on Wednesday. Okoro hit double figures for the second time in three games and the fifth time this season, halfway to his total for the entire 2024-25 season. There’s no need to consider adding Okoro, but his performance against the Pistons was on par with what Bulls fans hoped they would get from Patrick Williams (7/5/1/1/1) consistently.

Buzelis recorded his first double-double of the season on Wednesday, with the 14 rebounds being a career-high. While he hasn’t reached his Yahoo! ADP (80) just yet, the second-year forward is providing top-100 value in eight- and nine-cat formats. While things may change once the Bulls have Josh Giddey and Coby White in the lineup together, Buzelis has shown enough that fantasy managers should be confident that his value won’t take much of a hit, if any, when that time comes.

As expected, Kyle Kuzma received the starting nod with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) unavailable. However, Portis provided greater value despite coming off the bench. A double-digit scorer in three straight, the 14 points are the most in a game for Portis since he dropped a season-high 16 on November 1 against the Kings. As for Kuzma, he finished Wednesday’s defeat with eight points, three rebounds, four assists, one steal and one blocked shot, shooting 3-of-12 from the field.

The Bucks did not have Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) on the floor for Wednesday’s game, which increased Turner’s importance on offense. He shot the ball well, making half of his 14 attempts while also recording two steals and two blocks on defense. The lone disappointment for fantasy managers was Turner’s inactivity on the boards, grabbing just three rebounds. However, he’s never been the strongest rebounder, so a night like Wednesday is unsurprising.

Rollins continues to flourish for the Bucks, finishing Wednesday’s defeat with his third 20-point game of the season. With no Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) on the floor, the Bucks’ point guard attempted 15 shots, the most in a game for Rollins since October 30. Even better for fantasy managers is that the increased shot usage did not negatively impact Rollins’ efficiency, as he shot 66.7 percent from the field and committed just two turnovers. He’s still rostered in 49 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is too low given Rollins’ role and his production.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is out for Wednesday’s game, opening up a massive void in the Bucks’ starting lineup. Kuzma will step into the role, and this matchup could be one where he can provide additional value. Even on a 12-game night, it wouldn’t hurt to roll the dice on Kuzma.

Giannis is still dealing with left knee patellar tendinopathy and will miss Wednesday’s game against the Hornets. The 30-year-old power forward had appeared in 10 of the first 11 Bucks games and was averaging 33.4 points, 11.9 rebounds and 6.2 assists. Ryan Rollins, Bobby Portis and Kyle Kuzma are the most likely to benefit from Giannis’ absence with Kuzma likely replacing him in the starting lineup.

Due to a lingering case of left knee patellar tendinopathy, Antetokounmpo is back on the Bucks’ injury report. While Wednesday’s game is not part of a back-to-back, this may be viewed as an opportunity to get the superstar forward additional rest. If Giannis doesn’t play, Kyle Kuzma is the likely replacement in the starting lineup. He hasn’t been a great fantasy option this season, but the chance to start without Giannis raises Kuzma’s ceiling.

Injured during the third quarter of Saturday’s loss to Cleveland, Giddey did not play in Monday’s loss to San Antonio. His spot in the starting lineup was filled by Kevin Huerter, who tallied 23 points, five rebounds, five assists, one block and four three-pointers. He’s worth streaming if Giddey remains out, while managers in deeper leagues should also consider Ayo Dosunmu.

Kuzma came off the bench and played 32 minutes against the Mavericks on Monday. The 30-year-old small forward is seeing additional minutes with Taurean Prince (neck) out for the foreseeable future. Kuzma was the main support for Giannis Antetokounmpo offensively against the Mavericks and that’s a role he could occupy more despite averaging 12.4 points per game so far.

Antetokounmpo had at least 30 points for the fourth time in his last five games. He continues to dominate from a usage perspective as Kyle Kuzma was the only other Bucks player with at least 20 points. Giannis has been a top-10 fantasy player to start the year. The Bucks have three more games this week, starting with the Hornets on Wednesday.

Dosunmu recorded his third 20-point game of the season on Monday, helping pick up the slack offensively on a night when the Bulls did not have Josh Giddey (ankle). The former second-round pick may be rostered in less than 20 percent of Yahoo! leagues, but he is providing top-100 value in nine-cat formats. Dosunmu’s streaming value is dictated by the availability of Josh Giddey, who did not play on Monday due to a sprained ankle. If Giddey can’t play against the Pistons on Wednesday, don’t hesitate to consider Dosunmu in deep leagues, even if he doesn’t start.

Due to Coby White’s calf injury, Jones has been a starter since the beginning of the season. However, Josh Giddey joining White on the sideline for Monday’s game gave Jones more room to operate with the ball in his hands. Not only did he record seven assists, but the point guard notched his first 20-point game of the season. Jones has scored 15 points or more in four of his last five games and is ranked within the top-50 in nine-cat formats. Rostered in 31 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he’s worth a look while the Bulls are without their expected starting backcourt.

With Josh Giddey (ankle) unavailable, Huerter made his first start of the season on Monday. And “Red Velvet” was excellent, shooting over 50 percent from the field and finishing a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Rostered in 14 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Huerter is providing seventh-round value in nine-cat formats. He isn’t a must-roster player when the Bulls are whole, but with Giddey and Coby White out, Huerter is a worthwhile streamer.

While he’s only recorded one 20-point game as a Buck, Turner’s defensive production has been what fantasy managers hoped for. The 6-foot-11 center recorded three steals and three blocks on Sunday, the third time in four games that he’s produced at least five “stocks.” Turner is providing fifth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats, and all that’s needed to improve that would be a modest boost to his scoring.

Rollins continues to provide excellent value as the Bucks’ starting point guard. He’s scored in double figures in nine straight games and has offered third-round per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats since moving into the starting lineup on October 24. Rollins is rostered in just 47 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is too low, considering the production and Kevin Porter Jr.'s continued absence with a knee injury.

Giannis didn’t record any defensive stats on Sunday, the first time he’s done that since the Bucks’ opener, but the offensive production remained elite. He’s scored at least 31 points in seven of the nine games he’s appeared in and is providing top-15 per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats. Despite shooting just 63.5 percent from the foul line, Antetokounmpo’s field-goal percentage has increased by three points compared to last season. Also, his rebounding average has increased while the turnovers have decreased. The Bucks play four games during Week 4, starting with the Mavericks on Monday.

Williams recently sprained a finger on his left hand, but he’s a right-handed shooter, and the probable tag suggests he’ll be cleared to play on Monday. If so, his role won’t change much, even if Josh Giddey (ankle) is downgraded from questionable to out.

Smith provided a spark off the bench for Chicago as a certifiable one-man wrecking crew, knocking down all four three-point attempts and grabbing double-digit rebounds to notch a double-double in less than 20 minutes. That’ll work. The 25-year-old sharp-shooting big man is averaging 12 points and six rebounds across four games over the past week, which gives him some appeal for fantasy purposes in deeper leagues.

Dosunmu missed Tuesday’s game against the 76ers with a quad injury. The 25-year-old shooting guard returned Friday night against the Bucks and had seven points and three assists in 20 minutes. The Bulls want to avoid giving Dosunmu heavy minutes while he’s still dealing with the quad injury and that lowers his fantasy ceiling.

Rollins continues to flourish as the Bucks’ starting point guard, enjoying his third game with at least 20 points on Friday. He’s proven to be a good fit alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has taken on more playmaking responsibilities this season. With Rollins being a fourth-round player in nine-cat formats, it will be enticing for some managers to consider selling high. However, holding onto him would not be the worst idea, even after Kevin Porter Jr. (knee) returns from injury.

For the first time as a Buck, Turner has recorded a 20-point game. In fact, he entered Friday having surpassed 15 points just once. While he can provide valuable spacing for Giannis Antetokounmpo, that has generally resulted in the “Greek Freak” getting downhill even more and finishing at the basket, rather than a few more catch-and-shoot opportunities for Turner. He was more involved in the offense on Friday, resulting in his best performance of the season thus far.

While many expected that Giddey merely scratched the surface of what he’s capable of in Chicago last season, his start to the 2025-26 campaign has exceeded expectations. He’s close to averaging a triple-double and has recorded at least 10 assists in five of Chicago’s eight games. Giddey will look to get Chicago back into the win column when they visit the Cavaliers on Saturday.

Valued mainly for his assist production and low turnover numbers, Jones has been more valuable than anticipated as a scorer. He’s reached double figures in six of eight games, with Friday’s total being a season-high. With Coby White (calf) expected to miss a few more weeks, Jones is worth holding onto. However, that will change once White is cleared to play.

Based on his Yahoo! ADP, Buzelis is expected by many fantasy managers to be a top-100 player this season. Thus far, he’s met those expectations, most recently finishing Friday’s defeat with a complete stat line. Buzelis recorded his third 20-point game of the season, two shy of his total during the 2024-25 campaign. Buzelis is already rostered in 90 percent of Yahoo! leagues, so he isn’t going to be found on many waiver wires. Chicago visits Cleveland on Saturday to complete its Week 3 slate.

The Bulls had no answer for Antetokounmpo, who shot 50 percent from the field and finished one assist shy of a triple-double. And he was especially lethal during the fourth quarter, scoring 19 points. While he’s shooting 63.4 percent from the foul line, Giannis’ improvement in the turnover category has enhanced his value in nine-cat formats. According to Basketball Monster, he’s a top-10 player in eight- and nine-cat formats. More nights like Friday will give him a shot at cracking the top-5 in fantasy value, something he has not done since the 2016-17 campaign.

Vučević was only 1-of-5 from beyond the arc on Tuesday, but the lone make was huge. His corner three with 3.4 seconds remaining capped a 24-point rally for the Bulls, who are now 6-1 on the season. Vooch has recorded five double-doubles in seven games, showing he may have more staying power than some fantasy managers believed before the season began. Vučević and backup Jalen Smith (14 points, four rebounds and three three-pointers) combined to outplay their 76ers counterparts, a significant factor in Chicago’s ability to rebound from a slow start.

Okoro has hit double figures in consecutive games for the first time this season. Tuesday’s point total was a season-high for the wing, whose defensive ability is why he was inserted into the starting lineup to begin the season.

Giddey was sensational in the Bulls’ comeback victory, recording his second triple-double of the season. His 12th assist of the night was the point guard’s most important, as he found Nikola Vučević in the right corner for a three-pointer with 3.4 seconds remaining that won the game. Giddey’s hot start is a critical reason why the Bulls are now 6-1, and he’s shown no signs of slowing down. With Coby White (calf) expected to miss a few more weeks, Giddey managers have an interesting dilemma: sell high, or continue to ride the wave?

Antetokounmpo took all 14 of his shots inside the arc, scoring 15 of his team-high 22 points in the first half. The Bucks sputtered offensively on the second night of a back-to-back, shooting just 31 percent (6-of-19) from three in the opening half and falling behind by 19 at the break. They trailed by 25 entering the fourth, which allowed Giannis to rest the entire final period. The 30-year-old superstar is averaging 32 points and 12 rebounds through seven games, ranking as a top-10 fantasy contributor so far. Milwaukee will look to bounce back Friday night against the division-rival Bulls.

After scoring 22 points off the bench in the Bucks’ last game, Kuzma was able to have another decent performance against Indiana. The discouraging part is that he only played 16 minutes. Kuzma struggled during the second half of last season after being sent to the Bucks, though he was part of the starting lineup. Now, he’s come off the bench in almost every game this season. He’s playing better, but if he isn’t getting the opportunity, his upside is limited.

It was another spectacular night for Antetokounmpo despite another rough night from the free throw line, and it ended with a contested fadeaway at the buzzer. Giannis will continue to stuff the stat sheet every night for Milwaukee; he has scored at least 30 points in five of his six appearances and has a double-double in all but one game this season. This was the first leg of a back-to-back, so there is a chance that Antetokounmpo doesn’t play against the Raptors on Tuesday. Keep an eye on the injury report.

Antetokounmpo was also listed as questionable prior to Saturday’s game against the Kings before ultimately taking the floor and logging a 26/11/8 line in the loss.

Even with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) back in the Bucks’ lineup, Portis’ playing time increased on Saturday, playing 23 minutes after logging 16 in Thursday’s win over the Warriors. The reason for the increase in playing time was Myles Turner (9/3/0/2 with three three-pointers) getting into early foul trouble, which limited him to 24 minutes. While a fixture in the Bucks’ rotation, Portis’ opportunities are dictated primarily by Turner’s production, which limits his fantasy ceiling.
