Coby

White

One of the league’s hottest players since the All-Star break, White had a rough night in Chicago’s season finale. In addition to shooting 25 percent from the field, he was responsible for a team-worst seven turnovers. The Heat harassed White throughout, one reason why Chicago finished with a season-low point total. White exceeded his Yahoo! ADP (85) in eight- and nine-cat formats for the season, performing one round better in the former. He’ll remain an offensive focal point for the Bulls in 2025-26, which makes him worthy of a middle-round pick in most league formats.

Ball hasn’t played since February and is set to miss Chicago’s Wednesday play-in game. Josh Giddey and Coby White will have to continue carrying the Bulls’ backcourt rotation.

Terry has been upgraded from probable to available, and his playing time may increase on Sunday. The Bulls have secured the ninth seed in the East and have ruled Josh Giddey out. With Coby White’s playing time likely being managed closely, additional minutes may be available to Terry, especially after halftime.

Ball’s long streak of missed games will continue on Wednesday. Chicago’s backcourt is banged up, but Coby White has a chance to return to the lineup after taking the Bulls’ last game off to rest.

While White’s absence is due to rest, Huerter will not play on Tuesday because of a cervical strain. The absences open up two spaces within the Bulls’ starting lineup, with Patrick Williams, Dalen Terry and Talen Horton-Tucker among the potential replacements. Williams has yet to start alongside Matas Buzelis, so he feels like an unlikely starter.

White has been on an absolute tear since the All-Star break, averaging 26.1 points per game while shooting 50.2 percent from the field and 90.4 percent from the foul line. With his production across the board, White has offered top-25 value in eight- and nine-cat formats. The Bulls are locked into the play-in tournament, but the season’s final four games will be about improving their seeding. For White managers whose leagues will be active during Week 23, that should ensure them of a full slate for the Bulls’ guard.

Ball hasn’t played since the end of February and will remain on the shelf through the first week of April. Josh Giddey and Coby White will continue carrying heavy workloads in Chicago’s backcourt.

Scoring-wise, few players have been as hot as White over the past month. He’s averaged 28.2 points per game on 51.1 percent shooting. While his defensive value is limited, Coby’s offensive ability has made him an excellent fantasy asset, especially in points leagues. And with the Bulls visiting the Hornets on Sunday, it would be unsurprising if he capped Week 22 with another 30-point outing.

White’s hot streak came to a screeching halt in Oklahoma City on Monday, but he was able to get back on track 24 hours later. He had scored at least 20 points in 15 straight games entering Monday’s game but was held to just seven points in the blowout loss. However, Tuesday was a far more productive night for him. White has provided third-round value in nine-cat leagues over the past month and will look to stay hot over Chicago’s final two games of the week.

Nearly all of Chicago’s backcourt is banged up, out, or expected to sit out Tuesday. Coby White figures to see monster minutes and usage, while Talen Horton-Tucker could see a big spike in playing time depending on the absences.
