Horton-Tucker recorded 18 points (6-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and three assists in 23 minutes during Monday's 112-99 victory over the Clippers. After logging three straight scoreless outings, Horton-Tucker emerged with 18 points in just 23 minutes off Chicago's bench. The veteran swingman's usage was also particularly high, as he attempted a season-high 15 field goals in the absence of both Coby White (ankle) and Ayo Dosunmu (calf). Despite Monday's outburst, fantasy managers should likely take a wait-and-see approach before considering adding Horton-Tucker, who hasn't played a consistent role with the Bulls in 2024-25.

Latest Bulls News
Talen Horton-Tucker : Emerges with 18 points off bench
Horton-Tucker recorded 18 points (6-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and three assists in 23 minutes during Monday's 112-99 victory over the Clippers. After logging three straight scoreless outings, Horton-Tucker emerged with 18 points in just 23 minutes off Chicago's bench. The veteran swingman's usage was also particularly high, as he attempted a season-high 15 field goals in the absence of both Coby White (ankle) and Ayo Dosunmu (calf). Despite Monday's outburst, fantasy managers should likely take a wait-and-see approach before considering adding Horton-Tucker, who hasn't played a consistent role with the Bulls in 2024-25.
Josh Giddey : Just misses triple-double Monday
Giddey finished with 18 points (7-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 40 minutes during Monday's 112-99 win over the Clippers. With fellow guards Coby White (ankle) and Ayo Dosunmu (calf) sidelined Monday, Giddey dished out a team-high nine assists while coming just one dime short of a triple-double. It was also Giddey's highest scoring output since Dec. 28, and his 40 minutes were a season high. Although the former first-rounder tends to run hot and cold, the versatile Giddey shouldn't struggle to put counting stats for the Bulls going forward.
Zach LaVine : Takes over on offense in win
LaVine (knee) amassed a game-high 35 points (11-21 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 8-10 FT) and three rebounds in 34 minutes during Monday's 112-99 victory over the Clippers. The Bulls were a bit shorthanded Monday, as the team was without Coby White (ankle) and Ayo Dosunmu (calf), but LaVine was able to play through a knee injury and pick up the slack in the form of a game-high 35 points. LaVine was also particularly aggressive attacking the basket, attempting a season-high 10 free throws, although it was just his second game of the season without tallying an assist. Fantasy managers should look for the star swingman to play a similar role if White remains out for Thursday's game against the Warriors.
Lonzo Ball : Running with first unit
Ball is starting Monday's game against the Clippers, independent NBA writer Justin Russo reports. Ball will draw the start at shooting guard due to the absence of Ayo Dosunmu (calf) Monday evening. Ball's last start dates back to Jan. 12 against the Kings when he finished with 15 points, one rebound, three assists and one block across 26 minutes.
Jalen Smith : Will go Monday
Smith (knee) is available for Monday's game against the Clippers. Smith was added to the injury report due to right knee tendonitis, but the issue isn't significant enough to keep him out of Monday's clash. He's averaging 13.6 minutes over his last five appearances and should expect to see a similar workload against LA.
Zach LaVine : Getting green light
LaVine (knee) will play Monday against the Clippers. LaVine was added to the team's injury report as probable, so his availability is no great surprise. He's been putting together a strong month, averaging 28.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.3 steals over 10 appearances.
Ayo Dosunmu : Won’t play Monday
Dosunmu (calf) is out for Monday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports. The Bulls will hold Dosunmu out Monday due to calf injury management, so it's reasonable for fantasy managers to expect him to return in Thursday's matchup with the Warriors. With Lonzo Ball (knee) available and Coby White (ankle) out against the Clippers, the former should take on a heavier load of ball-handling duties, and Dalen Terry is a candidate for more playing time off Chicago's bench.
Lonzo Ball : Cleared to play
Ball (quadriceps) will play Monday night against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports. Ball sat out Sunday's matchup against Portland due to a right quad issue but feels healthy enough to take the court Monday. He's averaging 9.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.8 steals over his last five appearances.
