Vucevic amassed nine points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 16 rebounds, three assists and three blocks over 30 minutes during Monday's 107-105 loss to Washington.
EDGE Analysis
The 16 boards were his highest total since he pulled down 17 against the Magic on Feb. 10. Vucevic saw his streak of games with double-digit points end at 16 though, as Monday was the first time since the All-Star break he'd failed to put up at least 10 points. Since the ASB, the veteran center has averaged 19.5 points, 10.8 boards, 3.1 assists and 1.2 threes while shooting 51.0 percent from the floor.

Vucevic accumulated 16 points (7-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, six assists and one block across 39 minutes during Thursday's 127-117 loss to the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Vucevic has been on an absolute tear during the current month, as he's enjoying a more prominent role on offense, and his numbers have backed that up. Aside from averaging 19.6 points per game in 11 March outings, he's also recorded seven double-doubles in that span while shooting 50.3 percent from the field. Vucevic should be considered Chicago's second-best option on offense behind DeMar DeRozan during the final weeks of the regular season.

Vucevic notched 22 points (10-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), nine rebounds, one block and two steals over 35 minutes during Monday's 110-107 win over the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran center just missed recording his 40th double-double of the season, which would have marked his third straight campaign reaching that plateau, and the seventh time in his career. Vucevic has been a force in the Chicago frontcourt since the All-Star break, averaging 20.9 points, 10.9 boards, 2.7 assists and 1.4 threes over the last 14 games while shooting 50.6 percent from the floor.

Vucevic racked up 29 points (11-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Saturday's 127-98 win over the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Vucevic capitalized on an idyllic fantasy matchup against a Washington frontcourt consisting of Richaun Holmes, Eugene Omoruyi and Patrick Baldwin. Vucevic's three-point shooting continues to be massively underwhelming, and it's tough to count on him booming consistently without a better stroke from deep, but Saturday's production proves he can still crush mismatches.

Vucevic finished Saturday's 112-102 loss to the Clippers with 22 points (9-22 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds and two assists across 35 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Vucevic has registered a double-double in each of his last four games and is up to 37 on the year. The big man has now tallied at least 20 points and 10 rebounds in three straight games. Vucevic is averaging 21.0 points on 48.9 percent shooting (including 42.9 percent from three), 11.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists over 33.5 minute per game in March.

Vucevic closed Thursday's 125-122 victory over the Warriors with 33 points (14-23 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds and five assists over 35 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Vucevic has been on a tear of late and continues to make a massive impact on both ends of the court for a depleted Chicago team. The veteran big man is benefiting from an uptick in touches and is going through a productive stretch, racking up seven double-doubles over his last eight appearances. During that span, he averaged 22.0 points, 11.9 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game in that span.

Vucevic ended with 23 points (11-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 12 rebounds and two assists across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 119-117 victory over Utah.
EDGE Analysis
Another game, another double-double for the veteran big man, as he's benefiting enormously from the uptick in touches ever since Zach LaVine went down with a season-ending foot injury back in mid-January. Vucevic is getting closer to the numbers he posted when he was the anchor of the Magic's offense a few seasons ago before getting traded to Chicago. Over his last 15 games, Vucevic has 11 double-doubles while averaging 20.4 points, 11.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 0.9 blocks per game.

Vucevic contributed 10 points (4-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt), 13 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Monday's 113-109 victory over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Although the Kings out-rebounded the Bulls in a losing effort, Vucevic held his own against Domantas Sabonis, who spells trouble for any team's interior defense. Although Sabonis won the rebound battle handily, Vucevic was able to provide enough on the offensive glass to get the ball moving again during key moments. The veteran has recorded a double-double in five of his last six games.

Vucevic was ejected from Friday's game versus the Bucks due to a flagrant foul on AJ Green. He finished with 17 points (8-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt), nine rebounds, three assists and one turnover in 34 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Tensions were high during the start of the fourth quarter, and Vucevic let his frustrations get the best of him. It was a hard foul, but there's no concern over a possible suspension for his fantasy managers.

Vucevic posted 24 points (10-23 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists, two blocks and two steals in 40 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 132-123 double-overtime win over Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Vucevic recorded his fourth consecutive double-double while reaching that mark for the seventh time across his last eight outings. He's doing more than just scoring points and grabbing rebounds, however, as the extended absence of Zach LaVine (foot) has allowed Vucevic to carve a role similar to the one he had during his Orlando Magic days, where most of the offense was flowing through him. Over that eight-game span, Vucevic is averaging 21.5 points, 12.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 0.8 blocks per contest.
