Giddey was injured during Monday's win over the Raptors and did not play in Thursday's win over Boston. While he expressed a desire to return on Monday when the Bulls face the Bucks, he may be back sooner. As well as Ayo Dosunmu has played this season, Patrick Williams may be whose fantasy value takes a more significant hit when Giddey returns.
Giddey (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Boston.
Expected to be nothing more than a late-round player regarding fantasy value, Dosunmu is closing in on the top 100 as Christmas approaches. Over the past two weeks, he has averaged 14.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.8 blocks, and 2.4 3-pointers per game, which is close to top-50 value. With Josh Giddey (ankle) out for the foreseeable future, Dosunmu (45% rostered, Yahoo) needs to be added in more 12-team leagues and maybe a few 10-teamers.
Giddey (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Celtics, Julia Poe of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Giddey will miss at least one game after injuring his ankle during Monday's win over the Raptors. While he has progressed in his recovery, the Bulls guard has not resumed running. Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu, and Lonzo Ball will all receive boosts to their fantasy values, while Talen Horton-Tucker should play more minutes off the bench.
