Giddey will be on a minutes restriction during Sunday's game against the Knicks, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.
Giddey recently returned to action after missing eight games due to a hamstring injury, and head coach Billy Donovan stated pregame that Giddey will have a minutes restriction for Sunday's game, as it is the second half of a back-to-back set. With Tre Jones also on a minutes restriction, Rob Dillingham and Collin Sexton could see slightly expanded roles off the bench.

Bulls' Josh Giddey: Expects to play Thursday
Rotowire
Giddey (hamstring) expects to play in Thursday's game against the Raptors, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports.
Giddey was a full participant in practice Wednesday, and he looks to be on the verge of ending an eight-game absence with a strained left hamstring. The star guard's return would likely translate into fewer minutes for Collin Sexton and Jaden Ivey at the point. That said, it wouldn't be shocking if the Bulls have a minutes restriction in mind initially for Giddey once he's able to take the floor.

Bulls' Josh Giddey: Questionable for Saturday
Rotowire
Giddey (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Heat.
Saturday's game is the first leg of a back-to-back set, and Giddey is a prime candidate for another maintenance day -- he just missed Thursday's game for maintenance-related reasons. If he misses any action, Kevin Huerter, Ayo Dosunmu and Isaac Okoro could see more action for Chicago.

After playing 29 minutes in Wednesday's loss in Indiana, Giddey is getting Thursday night off for hamstring injury maintenance. The Bulls have another back-to-back set coming up this weekend with the Heat, so more load management is likely on the horizon for Giddey. Isaac Okoro and Kevin Huerter should help hold down the fort Thursday.

Bulls' Josh Giddey: Subpar showing Wednesday
Rotowire
Giddey totaled 10 points (3-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 113-110 loss to the Pacers.
Giddey made his first start since Dec. 29 but didn't have his best performance. Even though his role as the Bulls' primary playmaker isn't at risk, especially now that he's been cleared to return to the starting lineup, his recent performances haven't been what fantasy managers expect out of him. In four contests since returning from an 11-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Giddey is averaging just 13.5 points, 6.0 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game while shooting 41.5 percent from the floor.

Giddey was listed as probable before this contest after notching 21 points, six rebounds, five assists and two steals off the bench in Thursday's win over the Timberwolves.

For now, fantasy managers can pencil him into active lineups.

Bulls' Josh Giddey: Limps to locker room
Rotowire
Giddey went to the locker room during the third quarter of Monday's game against the Timberwolves with an apparent left leg injury, Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Giddey was grabbing at the back of his left leg heading into a timeout early in the third quarter, and he was spotted walking to the locker room shortly after. Coby White (calf) also went down with an injury during the first half, so there could be more opportunities for Ayo Dosunmu and Tre Jones if Giddey is unable to return.

Giddey has been included on the injury report ahead of two straight games but is still likely to suit up Monday after logging 26 minutes in Saturday's loss to Milwaukee.

Over his last five games, Giddey has averaged 16.0 points, 10.8 assists and 7.8 rebounds while shooting 43.8 percent from the field in 31.4 minutes per contest.

Rotowire
Giddey (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

He posted 12 points (3-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 11 assists, six rebounds and one steal over 33 minutes during Friday's win over Philadelphia. If the 23-year-old point guard is ultimately ruled out, Tre Jones and Ayo Dosunmu are candidates for increased roles, while Jevon Carter could enter the rotation.
