Kostas

Antetokounmpo

Antetokounmpo started the year on a two-way for the Bulls, but he didn’t end up suiting up for them. Kostas will go play in Greece, where he’ll see an actual role, as opposed to what his last year in the NBA looked like.

With Lonzo Ball (knee) not having a timeline for a return to action and Ayo Dosunmu dealing with a pelvic contusion, the Bulls are a bit light on the perimeter. Hence the decision to sign Jones, who’s still unlikely to play credible rotation minutes. In order to make room for Jones, the Bulls have waived Kostas Antetokounmpo.

Antetokounmpo will officially join the Bulls after competing for a roster spot during training camp. He won’t be fantasy relevant this season.

He’ll simply be competing for a two-way spot and there’s nothing to get excited about in terms of fantasy. He’ll just be hoping to make the team.

He will be available for Saturday vs. the Hawks, but he’s unlikely to crack the rotation.

Antetokounmpo will not be available for the Lakers’ games against the Warriors (Monday) and Timberwolves (Tuesday). He wasn’t a rotation player when healthy, so Kostas’ absence won’t have an impact as far as fantasy basketball is concerned.

Kostas isn’t in the rotation so there are no fantasy implications here.

Carry on.

He’s appeared in one game and played eight minutes in it, so there are no fantasy impacts with this news.

Antetokounmpo played sparingly for the Lakers last season, appearing in five games and playing an average of four minutes per. He’s more of a project at this stage in his career, so the majority of his minutes will be coming with the Lakers’ G-League affiliate.
