White’s first game with the Hornets was also his return to Chicago. His first NBA game as a member of a team other than the Bulls was where he spent the first 6.5 seasons of his career. He was productive in his 16 minutes on the floor in the blowout win, but he’ll need to play a larger role to hold standard league value. However, he is returning from a calf injury, so he should take on more minutes as he logs more games.

It’s unclear if White will face a minutes restriction after such a lengthy layoff, but his return will likely mean fewer minutes for Tre Mann and Sion James.

White hasn’t appeared yet in a game for Charlotte since coming over before the trade deadline. The 26-year-old point guard is now likely to make his Hornets debut in Tuesday’s game against his former team the Bulls given his probable listing with a left calf strain. Tre Mann and Sion James are candidates to lose minutes with White returning.

White’s continued absence protects the minutes of Tre Mann and Sion James, neither of whom is worth the risk in most redraft leagues.

White hasn’t appeared in a game for Charlotte since being traded in early February, and fantasy managers will have to wait at least one more game for that debut. Tre Mann and Sion James will continue to handle backcourt responsibilities off the bench until White is back in action.

White has yet to make his Hornets’ debut, and that won’t change on Thursday. The Hornets will continue to rely on Sion James and Tre Mann to provide perimeter depth off the bench. Neither qualifies as a must-roster player in fantasy leagues.

Dieng ultimately wound up in Milwaukee, while the Hornets waived Conley. However, due to White’s calf injury that will keep him out through the All-Star break, the Bulls had to take less in the deal. Instead of three second-round picks, they’ll receive two, a 2031 via New York and a 2031 via Denver.

White was Charlotte’s big addition at the trade deadline, but they’ll wait at least four more games before he debuts to avoid any further issues with the calf that has given him trouble all season. Sion James and Josh Green should see a temporary boost in minutes until White debuts.

Numerous teams were interested in making a move for White, and Charlotte has won the sweepstakes. With Sexton heading to Chicago, White will likely fill out the sixth man role that Sexton previously occupied and should start when LaMelo Ball comes off the bench during back-to-backs. This isn’t an ideal landing spot for White from a fantasy perspective, though he should still play enough minutes to provide some value.

Despite White’s name popping up in trade rumors throughout the day, he started and had 21 points in 30 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Bucks. The fact that the 25-year-old point guard played at all suggests no trades involving him are close. White could be an odd fit if he were to remain with the Bulls for the rest of the season given the reported Bulls’ acquisitions of Jaden Ivey and Anfernee Simons Tuesday.

White was back in the Bulls’ lineup after a one-game absence, and things did not go well for him or the Bulls. While he shot a respectable 2-of-5 from the field in the first quarter, the other Bulls combined to make two of their 14 attempts, and Miami won the frame by a 34-13 margin. The game was essentially over at that point, with White playing 30 minutes. The Bulls play three games in Week 16, starting with the Bucks on Tuesday.

White and Vučević were held out of Saturday’s win over the Heat, with the former still having his workload managed due to a lingering calf injury. Both will be back in the starting lineup for Sunday’s rematch. While Vučević’s situation is straightforward, as his return pushes Patrick Williams to the bench, White’s is not. Kevin Huerter (back) is questionable; if he can play, either Red Velvet or Ayo Dosunmu will be replaced by White.

White joins Josh Giddey and Tre Jones on the sidelines, leaving the Bulls without their top three ball-handlers. Expect to see a lot of Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter, with the former offering a higher fantasy ceiling.

White was initially questionable for Saturday’s game, but a lingering right calf issue has him trending toward not playing. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) and Tre Jones (hamstring) out, the Bulls will have to rely heavily on Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter. Dalen Terry or Jevon Carter may enter the rotation, but neither would be worth streaming.

White continues to manage this calf injury, but he has been available for the past two weeks. If something changes this weekend, with Chicago playing in Miami on both Saturday and Sunday, Kevin Huerter and Ayo Dosunmu would take on extra minutes.

White was one of six Bulls players to score in double figures on Monday, with his total being the highest on the team. In addition to leading Chicago players in scoring, he also led them in three-pointers and was second in assists on the evening. White has quietly scored the ball well over the past five games — in that time, he’s recorded over 20 points in each game, and is averaging 5.2 three-pointers. Although the Bulls’ winning streak was snapped at four games on Monday, White should continue to play a prominent role and serve as a versatile scorer going forward.

White paced Chicago’s offense throughout the contest — knocking down five of their 21 three-pointers on the night — but opted to dish to teammate Kevin Huerter in the corner for a go-ahead trey with 0.2 seconds left in regulation. The 25-year-old scoring guard has been scorching hot over the past week, leading Chicago to four straight wins, averaging 23.8 points during that span. The Bulls are in line for a busy four-game week that includes showdowns against the Lakers and Pacers before a double dip against the Heat.

It has been an underwhelming season for White, and while he didn’t shoot as efficiently in this game, it was his third straight with at least 20 point. During that time, he’s averaging 24.3 points, 4.3 assists and 5.3 three-pointers per game. He’s starting to figure things out, and he’ll look to stay hot in their next game against the Celtics on Saturday.

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.

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.

White struggled in his first game back from a calf injury that sidelined him in Tuesday’s loss to the Rockets. He was limited to 30 minutes of action on Wednesday and didn’t have his usual impact as a scorer. He also logged five turnovers and struggled with his ball security, despite being having a good game as a facilitator. White is having a down season relative to his recent campaigns, but he will have a chance to bounce back on Friday against the Nets.

White did not play in Tuesday’s loss to the Rockets, opening up a place in the starting lineup for Jalen Smith. Smith played 36 minutes against Houston; he’ll head back to the bench, with his playing time taking a hit.

White will get a maintenance day on the first leg of Chicago’s back-to-back set, which isn’t surprising. In White’s absence, Tre Jones, Kevin Huerter and Ayo Dosunmu are all candidates for increased run.

The Bulls ended their three-game losing streak on Saturday, with offensive balance being the reason. White led seven Bulls in double figures with 22 points, making his first start since December 29. When available, his fantasy value has not met the expectations of fantasy managers, with White ranked just inside the top-150 in eight-cat formats. The Bulls begin a four-game Week 13 in Houston on Tuesday, and that’s the first game of a back-to-back.

White is back after sitting out Wednesday’s loss to the Pistons. With Kevin Huerter (back) unavailable, White can easily slide into the starting lineup without bumping anyone to the bench. White will be under a limit of 24-26 minutes.

White missed three games with a calf injury and then returned on Monday before sitting out Wednesday’s game against the Pistons. It seems like he’ll return for the second night of a back-to-back, which would move Tre Jones back to a smaller role.

White played on Monday after missing the last three games for Chicago, but he will miss the first leg of this back-to-back, meaning he should be available to take on the Heat on Thursday. White played 25 minutes off the bench in that game, so Tre Jones should see a bump in minutes with White out.

White made his return to action on Monday, playing 25 minutes off the bench in a loss to the Celtics. With Wednesday’s game being the first of two in as many nights for the Bulls, White may be in a spot where he only plays one of Chicago’s next two contests. If he sits, Tre Jones should play more than the 23 minutes he logged on Monday.

White will be back after a three-game absence. Tre Jones has been starting with White and Josh Giddey (hamstring) out, and he should maintain that role until Giddey returns. White’s return lines up with Jalen Smith (concussion) being sidelined, so White should fill that starting spot.

White is on track to return ahead of schedule, and he could slot immediately back into the starting lineup. With Josh Giddey still out, White could see significant run alongside Tre Jones, Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter in the backcourt.
