Bulls' Jalen Smith: Grabs nine boards in return
Smith finished with seven points (3-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds and two blocks in 16 minutes during Saturday's 125-107 win over the Mavericks.
Smith was back in action, having missed the previous two games due to a concussion. Prior to his absence, Smith had been starting alongside Nikola Vucevic, a role that saw him putting up standard-league numbers. Although he came off the bench Saturday, it remains to be seen whether that will stick or whether he will move back into the starting lineup. Managers could do worse than grabbing him as a speculative pickup.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Will play Saturday
Smith (concussion) is available for Saturday's game against the Mavericks.
Smith was initially listed as questionable but was upgraded to probable Saturday before being cleared to suit up. It's unclear if he'll operate under a minutes restriction during his return, though the big man should see significant minutes with Zach Collins (toe) sidelined. Over his last five appearances (three starts), Smith has averaged 10.4 points, 9.0 rebounds and 1.8 blocks in 23.2 minutes per tilt.

Smith's midday upgrade from questionable to probable is an encouraging sign for his availability Saturday. The big man has been in concussion protocol and has missed back-to-back games. Smith is averaging 9.0 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 17.7 minutes per game this season.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Iffy for Saturday
Smith is questionable for Saturday's game against the Mavericks due to a concussion.
Smith is attempting to pass each step of the league's concussion protocol in time to be eligible for action Saturday. If he cannot do so, Lachlan Olbrich would handle backup center duties behind Nikola Vucevic, as Zach Collins (toe) still isn't ready to play.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Out for Monday

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Enters concussion protocol
Smith entered the league's concussion protocol following the Bulls' 112-99 loss to the Hornets on Saturday, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Smith was evaluated by medical staff after a head-to-head collision with LaMelo Ball early in the third quarter, and the former has now been placed in concussion protocol. The Bulls' next game takes place Monday against Boston, but Smith would need to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to be available. With Zach Collins (toe) sidelined, Patrick Williams and Julian Phillips would be in line for more minutes if Smith were to miss time, though it's worth noting that Kevin Huerter led the bench with 31 minutes during Saturday's loss.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Posts another double-double
Smith had 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 27 minutes during Friday's 121-114 win over the Magic.
Smith has seen a sharp uptick in playing time in back-to-back starts, and he's paid it off by tallying a pair of double-doubles. He's been a solid contributor across the board over this brief hot stretch, though he's capable of doing even more damage if he can find his touch from beyond the arc. Smith has hit on just two of 11 attempts from downtown in his last two games.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Starting Wednesday vs. NOLA
Smith is in the Bulls' starting lineup against the Pelicans on Wednesday.
With Josh Giddey (hamstring), Coby White (calf) and Zach Collins (toe) sidelined, the Bulls will deploy Smith alongside Nikola Vucevic for a bigger starting five in Wednesday's contest. Smith has played 22 minutes or more in each of Chicago's last three games and will enter the team's starting lineup for the first time in the 2025-26 regular season. Over his previous three outings, he averaged 10.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 2.3 threes and 1.3 blocks over 23.3 minutes per game.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Chips in 12 points in loss
Smith racked up 12 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 26 minutes during Monday's 136-101 loss to the Timberwolves.
With Zach Collins (toe) sidelined, the 25-year-old center tied his most minutes played this season and had a productive night on both ends of the floor, drilling a trio of threes with three combined steals and blocks. Smith was capped at 17 minutes in each of his first six games after returning from a hamstring injury Dec. 12 but has now logged at least 22 minutes in three straight games for the first time this season. The Maryland product is averaging 10.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.3 threes, 1.7 assists and 1.3 blocks over the past three games.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Upgraded to available
Smith (quadriceps) is available for Sunday's game against Hawks.
A left quadriceps contusion won't stop Smith from suiting up Sunday. He's in line to play his usual role as frontcourt depth alongside Zach Collins. Smith has scored in single digits in five straight games, during which he's averaged 5.0 points, 5.2 rebounds and 0.6 assists in 15.5 minutes per contest.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Tabbed probable
Smith is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Hawks due to a left quadriceps contusion.
Smith is tending to what appears to be a minor quad injury, and he's expected to play through the issue Sunday. In his last four games, Smith is averaging 4.8 points and 5.3 rebounds across 15.0 minutes.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Grabs seven boards in win
Smith ended with four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist across 16 minutes during Wednesday's 127-111 win over Cleveland.
Smith has been slowly ramping up his workload since missing five games due to a hamstring injury. He was on quite a tear before his injury, averaging 10.9 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.3 steals, 1.0 blocks and 2.0 threes across 18.7 minutes through 10 games. However, now that Zach Collins and Nikola Vucevic are both healthy, it'll be difficult for Smith to see increased playing time even if he's producing well.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Nabs 10 boards in return
Smith provided five points (2-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 17 minutes during Friday's 129-126 victory over the Hornets.
Smith made his first appearance since Nov. 28 due to a left hamstring issue. He struggled a bit on the offensive end but still managed to rack up double-digit rebounds despite being on a 20-minute restriction. Smith typically sits around the 20-minute mark on a nightly basis in his role behind Nikola Vucevic, so the limit shouldn't have much of an impact as he eases back into the swing of things.

Bulls' Jalen Smith: Good to go Friday
Smith (hamstring) will play on a 20-minute restriction during Friday's game against the Hornets, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
After missing five consecutive contests due to a left hamstring strain, Smith will return to action against Charlotte. The big man will likely split time with Zach Collins (wrist) behind starter Nikola Vucevic, assuming Collins ditches his probable tag. Over his last five appearances, Smith has averaged 9.4 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.6 blocks in 19.6 minutes per contest.
