Bulls' Guerschon Yabusele: Impressive stretch continues
RotowireYabusele logged 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 124-105 loss to the Celtics.
Although Yabusele has impressed during his brief time in Chicago following the departure of Nikola Vucevic, it'll be interesting to see what kind of role he plays once Jalen Smith (calf) gets back on the court. Yabusele has averaged 10.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.5 three-pointers in 26.8 minutes per contest in his last four games, connecting on 41.7 percent of his three-point shots.

RotowireSexton chipped in 15 points (6-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two steals across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 124-105 loss to Boston.
Sexton appears to be finding his stride with theBulls after being acquired at the deadline. He's scored in double digits in all three games for Chicago, averaging 17.7 points per game during that span. Expect Sexton to continue being a steady source of scoring, especially while Josh Giddey recovers from a hamstring injury.

RotowireBuzelis recorded 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt), eight rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 124-105 loss to Boston.
Buzelis finished one point shy of tying the team high on the night and two rebounds shy of a double-double. He's also in a good rhythm with his shot after back-to-back games with three makes from behind the arc. Over his past five games, Buzelis is averaging 3.4 threes per game.

RotowireDillingham racked up 16 points (6-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), one rebound, seven assists and three steals across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 124-105 loss to Boston.
Dillingham had his best game in three appearances as a member of theBulls. He led the team in scoring in defeat with 16 points off the bench, while racking up seven assists and three steals. He's competing for minutes in a crowded backcourt going forward.
... See More... See LessBulls' Jaden Ivey: Checks in Wednesday
RotowireIvey (undisclosed) checked into Wednesday's game against the Celtics with 6:19 remaining in the first quarter, per the broadcast.
Ivey was announced in the starting lineup ahead of tipoff, though Collin Sexton ultimately got the starting nod. However, Ivey doesn't appear to be dealing with an injury and should be good to go for the remainder of the contest after checking in.
... See More... See LessBulls' Jaden Ivey: Removed from lineup last second
RotowireIvey has been replaced by Collin Sexton in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Celtics, per the broadcast.
Ivey was slated to start Wednesday's game, but Chicago made a last-second change that moved Sexton into the first unit in Ivey's place. It's unclear if Ivey is dealing with an injury, but the sudden nature of the change doesn't inspire positivity.
... See More... See LessBulls' Collin Sexton: Starts Wednesday
RotowireSexton started Wednesday's game against the Celtics, per the broadcast.
Jaden Ivey (undisclosed) was announced in the starting five, though Sexton ultimately drew the start. He should see a bump in minutes if Ivey is unable to play.
... See More... See LessBulls' Patrick Williams: Will start Wednesday
RotowireWilliams will start Wednesday's game against Boston.
The sixth-year forward will enter the starting five due to Isaac Okoro (knee) being unavailable. As a starter this season (two games), Williams has averaged 10.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 30.5 minutes per game.
... See More... See LessBulls' Jalen Smith: Out again Wednesday
RotowireSmith (calf) will remain on the inactive list for Wednesday's game in Boston.
Smith will sit out Chicago's final game heading into the All-Star break, but there's a decent chance he'll be able to get back out there for Chicago's Feb. 19 matchup with Toronto. Guerschon Yabusele should continue to start in Smith's absence, with Nick Richards logging extended minutes in the second unit.
... See More... See LessBulls' Tre Jones: Officially out
RotowireJones (hamstring) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against Boston.
Jones will miss an 11th straight game due to a strained left hamstring, but the guard will have the full All-Star break to rest and recover before Chicago's next game, which will come Feb. 19 against Toronto. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) also sidelined Wednesday, look for Chicago to lean on the quartet of Anfernee Simons, Jaden Ivey, Collin Sexton and Rob Dillingham in the backcourt.
... See More... See LessBulls' Josh Giddey: Ruled out Wednesday
RotowireGiddey (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
Giddey will miss an eighth consecutive contest due to a left hamstring strain, and his next opportunity to return will come against the Raptors on Feb. 19 after the All-Star break. TheBulls will likely continue relying heavily on Anfernee Simons, Jaden Ivey and Collin Sexton due to Giddey being sidelined Wednesday.
... See More... See LessBulls' Isaac Okoro: Downgraded to out
RotowireOkoro (knee) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
Okoro was added to theBulls' injury report Wednesday morning due to a sore left knee, and he'll wind up missing the team's final game before the All-Star break. With Tre Jones (hamstring) and Josh Giddey (hamstring) also sidelined, Patrick Williams, Collin Sexton and Leonard Miller could all see expanded roles.
... See More... See LessBulls' Isaac Okoro: Questionable for Wednesday
RotowireOkoro is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Celtics with left knee soreness.
Okoro was a late addition to the injury report, and theBulls may exercise caution ahead of the All-Star break. Okoro has been logging big workloads lately with 33.1 minutes per game over his last four contests. If he's unable to play, the team could turn to Patrick Williams and Leonard Miller.
... See More... See LessBulls' Jalen Smith: Unlikely to play Wednesday
RotowireSmith is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Celtics with a strained right calf.
TheBulls are expected to keep Smith out through the All-Star break. His expected absence should allow Guerschon Yabusele and Nick Richards to split the center minutes evenly Wednesday, putting both players in the streaming mix.
... See More... See LessBulls' Tre Jones: Unlikely to play
RotowireJones (hamstring) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Boston.
As expected, theBulls are likely to hold Jones out through the All-Star break. When the Bulls are at full strength in the backcourt, it will be interesting to see how the team handles this logjam in terms of minutes.
... See More... See LessBulls' Josh Giddey: Doubtful for Wednesday
RotowireGiddey (hamstring) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
It's not a surprise to see theBulls exercise caution for the final game before the All-Star break. Assuming Giddey sits for an eighth straight time, the Bulls will likely continue to lean on Jaden Ivey, Anfernee Simons and Collin Sexton.
... See More... See LessBulls' Isaac Okoro: Fares well despite loss
RotowireOkoro ended with 10 points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists and four steals across 36 minutes during Monday's 123-115 loss to Brooklyn.
This was Okoro's seventh career game with four steals, though he's averaging just 0.7 swipes per game this campaign. TheBulls opened up a lot of minutes at the trade deadline, and it looks like Okoro is set up for a key role -- he's averaging 33.1 minutes per contest over his last four games.
... See More... See LessBulls' Anfernee Simons: Strong line in loss
RotowireSimons ended with 23 points (10-17 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one block over 34 minutes during Monday's 123-115 loss to the Nets.
Simons is on an expiring contract and is basically doing an audition ahead of free agency. He's been heavily utilized in his first two games with theBulls, posting a dud prior to this outburst. It will be interesting to see how this rotation shapes up once Josh Giddey (hamstring) is healthy after the All-Star break.
