White recorded 28 points (10-19 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Monday's 135-126 loss to Utah.
White continues to impress from beyond the arc and has hit five or more triples in three of his last four appearances. However, this is only one of the ways in which he's been producing for the Bulls, as he's been stuffing the stat sheet on a nightly basis to open the 2024-25 season. White is averaging 17.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.3 steals through his first seven games of the year.

Bulls' Coby White: Chips in 21 points Friday
Rotowire
White registered 21 points (6-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds and four assists over 34 minutes during Friday's 120-112 loss to the Nets.
White extended his 20-point streak to three games Friday, and he and Zach LaVine were tied for second-most points on the Bulls behind Nikola Vucevic (28). White struggled from three early in the regular season, but his shot has steadied as of late and he's gone 14-for-29 from beyond the arc over his last three outings. For the season, he's averaging 19.3 points, 4.3 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.2 steals over 33.8 minutes per game.

Bulls' Coby White: Hits for 21 in win
Rotowire
White closed Wednesday's 102-99 win over the Magic with 21 points (8-16 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 37 minutes.
It's the third time in the last four games that White has delivered 20 or more points, and the 24-year-old guard seems to be gelling quickly with new backcourt mate Josh Giddey. Through five contests to begin the season, White is averaging 19.0 points, 4.4 boards, 4.4 assists, 3.2 threes and 1.4 steals, quickly demonstrating that his 2023-24 breakout was no fluke.

Bulls' Coby White: Drills five threes in victory
Rotowire
White produced 20 points (6-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and five assists across 32 minutes during Monday's 126-123 win over the Grizzlies.
White has been inconsistent through four games to start the season. It's mostly come out in the wash, as he has averages of 18.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.3 steals in 32.8 minutes. His five threes in Monday's win were bested only by his seven-three performance during the second game of the season against the Bucks. Last year, White had 13 performances with at least five made triples.

Bulls' Coby White: Buries seven threes in win
Rotowire
White finished Friday's 133-122 victory over the Bucks with 35 points (12-20 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, five assists and four steals across 34 minutes.
White fell one made three-pointer shy of tying his career high, sinking seven of the Bulls' 21 made threes Friday. It was a strong bounce-back performance for White after he went 0-for-5 from distance and logged just 10 points in Chicago's regular-season opener. White was also a plus on the defensive end, tying his career high in steals with four.

Bulls' Coby White: Drills five threes to lead team
Rotowire
White compiled 23 points (6-9 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four assists and two rebounds across 31 minutes in Wednesday's 125-123 preseason win over the Timberwolves.
White was in the first unit with Zach LaVine and Josh Giddey, which is an encouraging sign for his production moving forward. White and Ayo Dosusmu (shoulder) stepped up last year after Zach LaVine's injury, and his return plus the acquisition of Giddey put the future of White's participation in jeopardy. While Wednesday's lineup lessened concern about White, Lonzo Ball's appearance off the bench poses some long-term concern about the makeup of the backcourt after Ball's minute restriction is removed.

Bulls' Coby White: Good to go Wednesday
Rotowire
White (groin) is active and starting Wednesday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports.
White missed back-to-back exhibitions due to groin tightness, but the issue was always reported as minor. The North Carolina product had a breakout campaign last year while the team was without Zach LaVine for most of the season, and it's unclear how LaVine's healthy presence will impact White's usage and playing time in 2024-25.

Bulls' Coby White: Won't suit up Saturday
Rotowire
White (groin) is out for Saturday's preseason matchup against the Grizzlies, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
White was held out of Friday's practice due to groin tightness, and the Bulls will likely remain cautious with the guard as the regular season approaches. The 24-year-old's next chance to suit up will come Monday against the Bucks, and in his absence the Bulls will likely take an extended look at Dalen Terry, Chris Duarte and Onuralp Bitim.

Rotowire
White did not practice Friday due to groin tightness, and he is questionable for Saturday's preseason matchup against the Grizzlies, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
White has been active throughout the preseason thus far, and the Bulls are likely going to remain cautious with the guard until the regular season. If the 24-year-old is ruled out, the Bulls are expected to take an extended look at Chris Duarte, Dalen Terry and Onuralp Bitim.

Bulls' Coby White: Pops for 21 in preseason win
Rotowire
White scored a game-high 21 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT) while adding three rebounds and three assists in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 116-112 preseason win over the Cavaliers.
After a breakout 2023-24 campaign that saw him produce a career-high 19.1 points, 5.1 assists, 4.5 boards and 2.6 three-pointers a game, White is expected to be one of the focal points of the Bulls' attack in the upcoming season. The 24-year-old does have a new backcourt partner in Josh Giddey, but the former Thunder player offers more offensive upside than Alex Caruso did, which could create more scoring opportunities for White as well.

Bulls' Coby White: Scores career-high 42 points
Rotowire
White amassed 42 points (15-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 9-10 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and two steals in 43 minutes during Wednesday's 131-116 Play-In Game victory over Atlanta.
White enjoyed a career night during the elimination game and led the Bulls in scoring by a wide margin. The fight for the eighth seed seems like a futile cause with the Celtics looming as the eventual opponent, but few teams could have beaten the Bulls on Wednesday night, galvanized by White's stellar evening. His stat line is a reminder that White should be considered as a favorite to win Most Improved Player honors.

Bulls' Coby White: Injures ankle, won't return
Rotowire
White won't return to Friday's game against the Knicks due to a left ankle injury, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports. He finished with two points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 14 minutes before exiting with 6:06 remaining in the second quarter.
The severity of White's ankle injury isn't known, so his status will be worth tracking heading into Sunday's game at Orlando. If White isn't able to shake off the injury in time for Sunday, Ayo Dosunmu would likely see more time on the ball and see a notable spike in his fantasy value.

Bulls' Coby White: Poor shooting continues Friday
Rotowire
White closed Friday's 125-108 loss to Brooklyn with 18 points (6-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), two rebounds and nine assists across 39 minutes.
White continues to struggle to score the basketball, going 6-of-16 from the floor and 3-of-5 from the line. While it has been a fantastic season for White, his production of late has been hampered by inefficient shooting. He remains a must-roster player, but managers shouldn't be afraid to sideline him if field-goal percentage is looking like a swing category.

Bulls' Coby White: Hits for 22 in Monday's loss
Rotowire
White amassed 22 points (6-20 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one block over 36 minutes during Monday's 107-105 loss to the Wizards.
It's the first time since March 7 that White has scored 20-plus points, as he gets back on track following a three-game absence due to a hip strain. Over 10 contests on the month, the fifth-year guard has averaged 19.6 points, 4.8 assists, 4.2 boards and 2.6 threes, and injuries might be the only thing that will slow down White as he wraps up a breakout campaign.
