NBA Player News

Mitchell (abdomen) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

Mitchell will miss a fifth consecutive contest due to an abdominal strain. His next opportunity to suit up will come Tuesday against the Magic. Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins are candidates for increased minutes due to Mitchell and Alex Caruso (adductor) being sidelined.

Bogdanovic (hamstring) is available for Sunday's game against the Suns.

Bogdanovic, who has been sidelined since late December, is no longer on the injury report following a successful rehab stint practicing in the G League. It will be interesting to see how he fits into the rotation with Jordan Miller breaking out in Los Angeles.

Barlow will start Saturday's game against the Pelicans.

Barlow will move into the first unit and could see a boost in fantasy value for the foreseeable future -- the NBA suspended Paul George for 25 games Saturday. In 30 starts this season, Barlow has produced averages of 8.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.6 blocks per game.

Drummond (illness) is available for Saturday's game against the Pelicans.

Drummond will shed his questionable tag due to an illness and will be available off the bench Saturday. The veteran big man has averaged 5.4 points and 4.6 rebounds in 10.4 minutes per game across his last five outings off the bench.

Gueye will start Saturday's game against Indiana, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Gueye will replace Christian Koloko in the first unit due to Onyeka Okongwu (mouth) being sidelined once again. Gueye is worth a look as a short-term streaming option with this news.

Kispert will come off the bench in Saturday's game against Indiana, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

This is an expected move with Jalen Johnson (calf) returning from a one-game absence. Kispert is likely to maintain a sizable role with Vit Krejci (ankle) sidelined Saturday.

Koloko will not start against the Pacers on Saturday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

After starting Thursday's loss to Houston in place of Onyeka Okongwu (mouth), Koloko will slide to the second unit in favor of Mouhamed Gueye on Saturday. Over four appearances off the bench with Atlanta this season, Koloko has averaged 4.8 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 13.3 minutes per contest.

White (calf) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Heat.

White will miss the front end of this back-to-back set due to right calf injury management. His next opportunity to play will come in Sunday's rematch against Miami. Ayo Dosunmu, Kevin Huerter, Dalen Terry and Jevon Carter will likely see increased playing time due to White, Josh Giddey (hamstring) and Tre Jones (hamstring) all being sidelined.

Miller (migraine) is available for Saturday's game against the Heat.

Miller hasn't seen an NBA floor since Dec. 7, but with the Bulls missing several key players Saturday, the two-way player may have a shot at some rotation minutes in this one.

Vucevic (rest) will not play Saturday against Miami.

Vucevic was previously listed as doubtful for Chicago, and he will end up sitting out the front end of this back-to-back set. With Jalen Smith (calf) also sidelined, the Bulls could lean more on Patrick Williams and Lachlan Olbrich.
