Carter notched five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and two rebounds in six minutes during Wednesday's 119-99 loss to the Mavericks.
Carter suited up for just the second time this season, playing six minutes in garbage time. It's been an underwhelming 12 months for Carter, who has struggled to carve out a consistent role in the Chicago rotation. Based on what we have seen across the first six games, it appears he is going to be utilized as nothing more than a depth piece.

Rotowire
Carter chipped in 20 points (8-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt), two rebounds, 12 assists, one block and one steal across 37 minutes during Friday's 129-127 win over the Wizards.
Carter's 20 points and 12 assists were his most all season in each respective category. He did his damage across a season-high 37 minutes. The veteran point guard could be in line for another healthy workload in Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Knicks if Chicago is again down several starters.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Rare appearance Tuesday
Rotowire
Carter notched three points (1-5 FG, 1-5 3Pt) and one rebound across six minutes during Tuesday's 128-117 loss to the Knicks.
Carter suited up for just the second time in the past six games, continuing his disappointing season. Last offseason, he was seen as a viable late-round flyer given what the Bulls had invested in him. However, it was quickly apparent that he was not going to be prioritized, culminating with him being ranked well outside the top 350 in nine-category leagues.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Logs just five minutes in loss
Rotowire
Carter supplied zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one steal in five minutes during Wednesday's 108-105 loss to the Cavaliers.
Carter failed to score in five minutes, continuing his disappointing season. Seen as a potential starting option coming into the season, Carter has failed to carve out a consistent role.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Hits double-digit scoring
Rotowire
Carter ended Monday's 136-126 victory over the Hawks with 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes.
Carter stepped into a substantial role with Alex Caruso (toe) inactive. His 25 minutes played marks a season high, and Carter's lack of sizable workloads is the major limiting factor precluding him from being a viable streaming candidate for threes.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Gets buckets in win
Rotowire
Carter totaled 14 points (5-12 FG, 4-9 3Pt) and one rebound over 24 minutes during Saturday's 122-116 win over the Spurs.
Carter and Ayo Dosunmu (21 points) delivered a scoring punch off the bench with the Bulls effectively using an eight-man rotation sans Patrick Williams (ankle). Carter hadn't appeared in Chicago's last two contests, seemingly as DNP-CDs. The 28-year-old is shooting just 36.2 percent from the field and 34.3 percent from deep across 39 appearances for the Bulls this season, but perhaps Saturday's scoring performance will yield momentum.

Rotowire
Carter (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the 76ers.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Probable for Saturday
Rotowire
Carter is probable for Saturday's game against the 76ers due to a right ankle sprain.
Carter hasn't yet missed a game this season, and he'll likely be able to suit up despite his ankle issue Saturday. He's posted single-digit scoring totals in three of his last four appearances, averaging 4.5 points and 1.5 assists in 15.0 minutes per game.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Tallies 10 points in victory
Rotowire
Carter produced 10 points (4-9 FG, 2-7 3Pt), one rebound and one steal in 17 minutes during Wednesday's 124-108 victory over the Lakers.
Carter was held scoreless in back-to-back appearances against the Heat last week, but he's bounced back since then with double-digit scoring performances in his last two outings. Even though he's been more productive on the scoreboard recently, he's still scored in double figures just three times over his last 21 appearances. During that time, he's averaged 4.5 points and 1.2 assists in 13.8 minutes per game.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Leads bench scoring in loss
Rotowire
Carter added nine points (3-10 FG, 3-8 3Pt), two assists, a rebound and a steal over 15 minutes in Tuesday's 114-106 loss to Denver.
Carter has been one of Chicago's more reliable scorers among the second unit, dropping at least eight points in nine games so far this season, but his issue has been efficiency (38.8 percent from the field). With injuries to Zach LaVine (foot) and Alex Caruso (ankle) boosting his playing time, Carter must be able to capitalize on the opportunity before he drops on the depth chart again.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Eight points in 16 minutes
Rotowire
Carter chipped in eight points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and one block over 17 minutes during Tuesday's 124-97 loss to the Celtics.
With Zach LaVine (foot) and DeMar DeRozan (ankle) leaving the contest early, Carter saw a few extra minutes in the loss, continuing the Bulls' terrible start to the season. To this point, they have won just five games and are projected to be one of the worst teams come April. Carter has not been able to carve out a consistent role and sits well outside the top 300 in standard formats.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Bench sparkplug in loss
Rotowire
Carter posted 16 points (6-9 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT) and one assist across 18 minutes during Saturday's 123-101 loss to Denver.
Carter was sharp, representing Chicago's third-leading scorer Saturday. No other member of the second unit exceeded five points. The 28-year-old is a career 40.0 percent shooter on 3.0 threes per game, profiling him at Chicago's top offensive backcourt option off the bench.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Leads bench scoring in loss
Rotowire
Carter notched 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, one block and one steal over 15 minutes during Wednesday's 114-105 loss to the Mavericks.
It's the second game in a row with Carter scoring in double-digits and leading the bench in points. He shot just 2-for-12 in his first three games but has turned that around and has made 10-of-14 shots over the last two contests. Carter played just 15 minutes in Wednesday's game, but he could see an uptick in playing time if he's able to continue to contribute efficiently off the bench.

Carter provided 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 18 minutes during Monday's 112-105 win over the Pacers.
Carter snapped out of a 2-for-12 shooting funk over his first three games. He represented the Bulls fourth-leading scorer Monday, which is more of a testament to Chicago's 30th-ranked effective field-goal percentage as opposed to Carter's breakout performance. Carter will look to carry his momentum into Wednesday's showdown versus Dallas.

Bulls' Jevon Carter: Headed to Chicago
Rotowire
Carter agreed to a three-year, $20 million deal with the Bulls on Friday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
Carter was previously with the Bucks and is coming off a career season, posting averages of 8.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.8 three-pointers. The Bulls were also able to re-sign Coby White to a new deal, and it's looking like both Carter and White could potentially have significant roles in Chicago's backcourt. Carter can be a solid source of assists, three-pointers and steals when the minutes are there, and Chicago could be a good spot for his fantasy appeal depending on how the rest of the roster fills out.

Bucks' Jevon Carter: Will come off bench Sunday
Rotowire
Carter will run with the reserves for Sunday's Game 1 against Miami, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Khris Middleton (knee) and Grayson Allen (ankle) are back, so it's unlikely Carter will be a significant part of the rotation for Game 1. Through 42 games as a reserve, Carter registered averages of 6.8 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.7 triples and 1.8 assists per contest on 40.3 percent shooting.

Rotowire
Carter (knee) is out for Tuesday's game versus the Wizards.
Carter has been downgraded from probable all the way to out Tuesday due to left knee soreness. Goran Dragic and Joe Ingles will likely see increased minutes in his absence. Carter's next chance to suit up is Wednesday's matchup with Chicago.
