Okoro totaled 10 points (3-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 26 minutes during Thursday's 120-115 victory over the Timberwolves.

EDGE Analysis

All five Chicago starters scored in double digits in the contest, as Okoro delivered 10 or more points for only the third time in 11 January games. On the month, the 24-year-old forward is averaging a modest 7.2 points, 3.2 boards, 1.5 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 threes in 26.7 minutes in a supporting role for the Bulls.

Okoro accumulated 12 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and three assists across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 128-126 victory over the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

Okoro continues to play a sizable role for the Bulls, but his overall fantasy impact has been pretty underwhelming. Over his last seven games, Okoro has seen 27.7 minutes per contest with 7.4 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 three-pointers on 38.5 percent shooting from the field.

Okoro posted two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, one block and one steal over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 108-93 loss to the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Although Okoro continues to play a sizable role for the Bulls, it hasn't translated to much fantasy value. Over his last eight games, Okoro has seen 24.9 minutes per contest with 8.0 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.8 three-pointers on 43.1 percent shooting from the field.

Okoro finished with 24 points (8-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 134-118 victory over the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Okoro took on an enhanced role with Josh Giddey (hamstring), Coby White (calf) and Zach Collins (toe) out, and he made the most of his opportunity. Although White should be back soon, Giddey and Collins are out for at least two weeks, and Okoro's promotion to the first unit is a strong sign that he'll be a primary pivot for the production gap moving forward.

Okoro closed with 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 19 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 152-150 victory over Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

With the Bulls mostly healthy again, Okoro's minutes have been held in check -- he's seen an average of 19.5 minutes per contest over his last two games. He's not a high-usage player, so despite the solid line Sunday, his value is likely going to be limited to deeper formats in the short term.

Okoro notched 12 points (6-7 FG), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 127-111 win over the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Okoro bounced back from his five-point showing Sunday, missing just one field goal en route to 12 points. Okoro does not provide much fantasy value. He's averaging 8.6 points per game, so there are likely better and more consistent options on waivers in most leagues.

Okoro posted 15 points (7-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes during Friday's 129-126 victory over the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

Okoro was given the green light to return Friday after missing eight straight matchups with a back injury. He looked sharp from the field, where he knocked down 63.6 percent of his tries. It was reported before Friday's matchup that Okoro would be on a 20-minute restriction, so the fact that he logged 26 minutes is a sign that he was feeling strong in his first game back.

Okoro (back) is available and starting with a minutes restriction of approximately 20 minutes in Friday's game against the Hornets, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okoro is wrapping up an eight-game absence with a back injury, so it's not surprising that Chicago has a cap on his playing time. Still, the swingman will return to the starting lineup right away. For the campaign, Okoro has averaged 8.2 points, 2.7 rebounds. 1.6 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 24.9 minutes per game across 15 appearances.

Okoro (back) is probable for Friday's game against the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

Okoro practiced in full Wednesday and is likely to play Friday. The swingman has averaged 8.2 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 24.9 minutes per contest over 15 games this season.

Okoro (back) practiced in full Wednesday, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okoro has missed the past eight games for Chicago, but it sounds like a return Friday against the Hornets could be on the table. Wednesday's practice included a scrimmage, so that's another good sign for Okoro.
