Acquired from the Timberwolves at the trade deadline, Dillingham struggled with a right wrist injury early in his arrival in the Windy City. However, the second-year guard made strides down the stretch, shooting just over 46 percent from the field in April. With Josh Giddey under contract for the next three seasons, Dillingham’s best opportunity at playing time in 2026-27 is likely to be as the backup point guard if he can win the job in training camp.

Due to injuries, Olbrich started the Bulls’ final two games of the regular season. While the rookie center offered limited value in Friday’s loss to the Magic, he recorded his first triple-double on Sunday. The 55th overall pick in last summer’s draft, Olbrich played in 37 NBA games this season. While not worth the risk in redraft leagues, his value in dynasty leagues next season will depend on whether Olbrich can secure a standard contract.

While Bulls fans hoping to see their team’s draft lottery odds improve more would have preferred to see less of Sexton after his acquisition, he recorded solid numbers on most nights. Over the final month of the regular season, he offered fifth-round category league value. Sexton will be an unrestricted free agent in the summer; his fantasy outlook in 2026-27 will depend on where he lands.

Recording his second 20-point game of the season, Dillingham finished Sunday’s defeat with his first career 25/5/5 stat line. The second-year guard was responsible for five turnovers, but the overall output was encouraging. With the Bulls needing to hire a new executive VP of basketball operations and a new general manager, it’s unclear what opportunities Dillingham will have next season. For now, he should only be rostered in dynasty leagues.

Williams was initially listed as probable and has now officially been cleared to suit up. He has had a couple productive outings recently, but he struggled in 27 minutes on Friday. He’ll look to bounce back in this one.

A starter in recent games, Olbrich is available for Sunday’s season finale. He should retain that starting center role since Nick Richards and Guerschon Yabusele remain out due to their injuries.

Sexton was initially listed as probable, so his availability against the Mavericks on Sunday isn’t much of a surprise. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) still out, Sexton is a must-start player in active fantasy leagues.

Of the three, Sexton has been the most impactful in fantasy basketball. He’s the one who needs to be rostered in active fantasy leagues for Sunday’s finale. Olbrich has moved into the starting lineup with Guerschon Yabusele and Nick Richards out for the season, most recently grabbing nine rebounds in Friday’s loss to the Magic. As for Williams, the former lottery pick logged 27 minutes on Friday, scoring eight points on 3-of-10 shooting.

Sunday’s season finale will be the third consecutive game that Okoro has missed with a quad contusion. Leonard Miller remained in the starting lineup for Friday’s loss to the Magic, and that should be the case on Sunday. For those in active fantasy leagues, Miller is worth rostering.

Jones had a game-high 31 points in the win over the Wizards on Thursday and followed it up with a team-high 23 points in the loss to the Magic on Friday. The 26-year-old point guard has now had at least 20 points in four consecutive games. Jones has been one of the more valuable players in the last week for those still in active fantasy leagues.

Buzelis turned his ankle in the second half. He seemed to be in pain and walked gingerly to the locker room before he was quickly ruled out with a right ankle sprain. With the Bulls closing out the season on Sunday against the Mavericks, it wouldn’t be a surprise if we’ve seen the last of Buzelis this season.

Yabusele (shoulder) injured his left shoulder during Thursday’s win over the Wizards. Between New York and Chicago, he appeared in 67 games this season, with his playing time increasing significantly after being traded to the Bulls. However, to make the deal happen, Yabusele had to waive his player option for the 2026-27 season. He’ll be a free agent in the summer, and landing a role where he would be able to affect fantasy basketball could prove challenging.

Buzelis is back after sitting out Thursday’s win over the Wizards. His return likely means that Leonard Miller will come off the bench. However, those rostering Miller in active leagues should not be too concerned about his playing time.

While Miller is a late addition to the Bulls’ injury report, he is still considered probable to play. If available, he may once again have a prominent role, as Matas Buzelis (illness) is questionable. Miller finished Thursday’s win over the Wizards with 26 points, 11 rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers. He is worth rostering in active fantasy leagues, even if Buzelis is available.

Buzelis sat out Thursday, but he’s got a chance to take the floor for the second leg of the Bulls’ back-to-back set. If he’s ultimately ruled out, Leonard Miller should draw another start.

Jones put on a show on Thursday, recording the third 30-point game of his NBA career, with two occurring this season. He’s scored at least 20 points in three straight games, the first time he’s done so this season. For those in active fantasy leagues, the Bulls have two more games on the schedule. If Jones is available for both, he has the potential to be a league-winner.

Bulls head coach Billy Donovan’s willingness to continue to play his available veterans likely benefited fantasy managers who rostered Sexton and Tre Jones. The former had an excellent night in the nation’s capital, shooting over 50 percent from the field and finishing a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Sexton has scored in double figures in 10 consecutive games, and the 27 points were the most in a game for him since he tallied 28 in a March 8 loss to the Kings.

With most fantasy leagues already wrapped up, Miller’s performance against the Wizards won’t have much of an impact in that regard. However, his solid play since being traded to Chicago may help solidify his future, whether it’s in the Windy City or elsewhere. Miller has a team option for the 2026-27 season, and he would be a low-cost option to help fill out the roster if the Bulls decide to pick it up.

Yabsuele suffered a sprained left shoulder during Thursday’s game, ending his night after 16 minutes of play. He finished with five points, five rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and one three-pointer. Yabusele’s absence frees up additional minutes for Patrick Williams and Lachlan Olbrich.

Dillingham is seeing more minutes with Josh Giddey (hamstring) out lately and he capitalized on his opportunity Tuesday against the Wizards. The 21-year-old shooting guard dropped a season-high 26 points and five three-pointers in 27 minutes off the bench. A top-10 pick in 2024, Dillingham showed he could be a player to watch going forward.

Williams hadn’t played at least 30 minutes in a game since the middle of February, but picked up minutes in the second half with Isaac Okoro (quad) sidelined. The 24-year-old forward led the Bulls with 32 minutes played and was arguably the best player one the floor Tuesday. Williams had an excellent game that came complete with a full stat line. It’s the kind of performance the Bulls envisioned him having regularly when he was drafted fourth overall in 2020, but have only occasionally seen from Williams.

Jones has now scored at least 20 points in four of his last seven games. The 26-year-old point guard has picked up his game lately as he’s provided sixth-round per game value over the last two weeks. With three games still left in the season, Jones already has some positive momentum behind him heading into next year.

Okoro suffered a left quad contusion during the first half of Tuesday’s game, with the injury limiting him to 16 minutes. Patrick Williams started the third quarter and should see additional minutes if Okoro misses time.

Williams is dealing with a left thumb sprain, but will play through it against the Wizards on Tuesday. The 24-year-old forward hasn’t been much of a fantasy factor this year, averaging 6.6 points per game and 2.8 rebounds per game.
