Bulls' Terry Taylor: Decreased role in loss
Rotowire
Taylor registered two points (1-1 FG), one rebound and one assist in seven minutes during Monday's 127-92 loss to the Mavericks.
Since the All-Star break, Taylor has appeared in seven out of the Bulls' last 10, averaging 1.1 points and 1.0 rebounds in 5.4 minutes. The 24-year-old forward has been overshadowed by Onuralp Bitim lately, who has averaged 16.4 minutes in the last 10 contests. Expect Taylor's minutes to remain limited behind Julian Phillips, Torrey Craig, Dalen Terry and Bitim off the bench.

Bulls' Terry Taylor: Scoreless in 20 minutes
Rotowire
Taylor recorded zero points (0-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 110-97 loss to the 76ers.
Nikola Vucevic (groin) and Torrey Craig (heel) remain out, and Patrick Williams (ankle) left the contest early, allowing Taylor, Dalen Terry, Julian Phillips and Adama Sanogo to see increased roles in the second half of a blowout loss. Taylor's 20 minutes was a season-high mark, and he also made an impact defensively, which somewhat salvaged his poor offensive night. Taylor has played at least 14 minutes in three straight games, but he's averaged just 2.7 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 17.0 minutes during that stretch.

Bulls' Terry Taylor: Re-emerges Monday
Rotowire
Taylor provided no counting stats in two minutes during Monday's 118-100 loss to the Heat.
The Bulls dusted Taylor off Monday, affording him playing time for just the fourth time all season. To this point, he has played a total of nine minutes, scoring a whopping two points. Obviously, there is no value here, even in the deepest of leagues.
Taylor signed a contract with the Bulls on Monday.
Taylor finished the 2022-23 campaign on a two-way deal with Chicago, but though the terms of his current contract are undisclosed, he looks set to rejoin the Bulls on a standard NBA deal. Between stops with the Pacers and Bulls last season, Taylor averaged 2.9 points and 1.5 rebounds in 8.5 minutes per game across 31 appearances. If he's included on the Bulls' season-opening roster, Taylor will likely be relegated to a depth role and may not be featured in head coach Billy Donovan's rotation.

Bulls' Terry Taylor: Continues thriving Tuesday
Rotowire
Taylor managed 18 points (7-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 15 rebounds, four assists and two steals across 38 minutes in Windy City's 93-89 loss to Maine on Tuesday.
The big man continued to parlay his NBA experience into G League domination, tying for the team lead in scoring while setting the pace in rebounds. Taylor had just posted a 23-point, 17-rebound double-double versus the Red Claws in Sunday's contest as well, meaning his two highest totals on the glass thus far have come at the expense of Maine.

Bulls' Terry Taylor: Tallies 25 points in loss
Rotowire
Taylor finished with 25 points (11-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and two steals across 39 minutes in Windy City's 116-112 loss to the Hustle on Wednesday.
Taylor's scoring total was a team-high figure and came as the result of his most efficient shooting effort yet during his short stint with Windy City. The 23-year-old is likely to continue dominating at the G League level most nights considering his hot start and prior NBA experience.

Bulls' Terry Taylor: Another stellar effort in win
Rotowire
Taylor furnished 29 points (10-19 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 14 rebounds and one block across 35 minutes in Windy City's 122-110 win over Texas on Wednesday.
Taylor put up a new season-best scoring total after having recorded 23 points in his Bulls debut on Feb. 26. The second-year pro is having no trouble matching up against G League competition in a brief sample thus far, with his 60 prior games of NBA experience undoubtedly benefitting him in that regard.

Bulls' Terry Taylor: Excels in Windy City debut
Rotowire
Taylor furnished 23 points (10-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 13 rebounds and three assists across 33 minutes in Windy City's 123-108 win over Westchester on Sunday.
Making his debut with the Bulls' G League affiliate after signing a two-way contract Feb. 21, Taylor paced Windy City in scoring and rebounds. Taylor's instant success isn't entirely surprising, considering he boasts 60 games of NBA experience and impressed at times as a rookie with the Pacers in the 2021-22 campaign while averaging 9.6 points, 5.2 points and 1.2 assists across 21.6 minutes over 33 contests.

Bulls' Terry Taylor: Joins Chicago via two-way deal
Rotowire
The Bulls signed Taylor to a two-way contract Tuesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Taylor was waived by the Pacers to make room for three trade acquisitions (George Hill, Jordan Nwora and Serge Ibaka) ahead of the deadline. The undrafted big man out of Austin Peavy averaged 9.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 21.4 minutes across 33 appearances (seven starts) for Indiana last year. He opened the 2022-23 campaign as a starter but was quickly relegated to a bench role and completely fell out of the rotation at times. In Chicago, he figures to compete for a reserve role behind Nikola Vucevic and Patrick Williams, especially if Javonte Green (knee) and Derrick Jones (groin) remain sidelined out of the All-Star break.

Terry Taylor: Set to be waived by Pacers
Rotowire
The Pacers will waive Taylor on Thursday, Tony East of SI.com reports.
Taylor is a roster casualty of the trade deadline, which saw Indiana bring in three players (George Hill, Jordan Nwora and Serge Ibaka) without sending any players out. The 23-year-old is unlikely to be a high-priority pickup via waivers, so if he goes unclaimed, he could stick around in the Indiana organization as a member of their G League affiliate in Fort Wayne. Taylor averaged 2.7 points and 1.5 boards over 8.8 minutes in his 26 appearances with Indiana this season.

Pacers' Terry Taylor: Sent to G League
Rotowire
The Pacers assigned Taylor to the G League's Fort Wayne Mad Ants on Monday.
Taylor has played just five minutes total over Indiana's last four games, so he'll head to the G League to get some meaningful playing time. Over his four appearances with Fort Wayne this season, Taylor has averaged 33.8 points, 11.3 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.3 three-pointers in 30.8 minutes per contest.

Pacers' Terry Taylor: Sticks in rotation Friday
Rotowire
Taylor posted four points (2-2 FG) and three rebounds over 16 minutes during Friday's 134-111 loss to the Nuggets.
Taylor played at least 16 minutes for the second straight game, partly because the Pacers were blown out yet again. Having now lost six consecutive games, their early-season promise is now a thing of the past. Taylor has been in and out of the rotation all season, so while the past two games have been encouraging, there is very little to see in terms of fantasy upside.

Pacers' Terry Taylor: Monster performance in win
Rotowire
Taylor posted 46 points (20-24 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 14 rebounds and three assists in 33 minutes during Thursday's 132-131 win over the Oklahoma City Blue in the G League Showcase.
Taylor couldn't be stopped as he put up another ridiculous stat line during the G League Showcase. Across four appearances with the Mad Ants, the 23-year-old big man has averaged 33.8 points, 11.2 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 33.8 minutes per game.

Pacers' Terry Taylor: Dominates in G League return
Rotowire
Taylor recorded 28 points (11-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 134-96 win over Santa Cruz in the G League Showcase.
Taylor made his first G League appearance since Nov. 22 and just his third of the season. Across those games, the 23-year-old is averaging 29.7 points and 10.3 rebounds in 30.2 minutes.
