Smith (calf) is probable for Thursday's game against the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Smith is on track to play Thursday, and managers can expect to get official confirmation on his status closer to tipoff. Thursday's match will be the first of a back-to-back set, though, so there's a chance Smith could get hit with a maintenance day Friday.

Smith accumulated 12 points (3-13 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one block over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 130-124 overtime win over the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Josh Giddey's triple-double and Matas Buzelis' first 40-point performance of his career overshadowed what other Chicago players did, and that includes Smith's solid all-around stat line. The shooting woes are worrisome, but fantasy managers won't worry too much about that as long as he continues to produce. Smith has scored in double digits in all but two of his last 17 appearances, a stretch in which he's averaging 12.4 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.4 steals-plus-blocks per game.

Smith will start Tuesday's game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Smith is available to play in a second consecutive contest following a five-game absence due to a left calf strain, and he'll return to the starting five after coming off the bench in Sunday's loss to Sacramento. He logged 20 minutes against the Kings, though it's unclear if he'll remain on a minutes restriction Tuesday.

Smith (calf) is available for Tuesday's game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will shed his probable tag and suit up for a second consecutive contest following a five-game absence due to a left calf strain. The big man logged 20 minutes off the bench during his return in Sunday's loss to Sacramento, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction Tuesday.

Smith is probable for Tuesday's game against Golden State due to a left calf strain.

EDGE Analysis

This appears to be a precautionary listing for Smith, who made his first appearance since Feb. 22 against the Kings on Sunday after battling the calf injury. Expect the Maryland product to shed the probable tag closer to tipoff, assuming he doesn't experience any kind of setback.

Smith (calf) registered four points (1-6 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-4 FT), three rebounds and one block in 20 minutes during Sunday's 126-110 loss to Sacramento.

EDGE Analysis

Back in action Sunday after a five-game absence due to a right calf strain, Smith saw a modest workload off the bench. It's unclear if Smith will reclaim the starting center spot from Guerschon Yabusele (22 minutes) once he's further removed from the calf injury, but both players received similar playing time Sunday.

Smith will come off the bench for Sunday's game in Sacramento, Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will be brought off the bench in an effort to conserve his minutes in his return from a five-game absence Sunday, so he's risky to deploy in daily fantasy leagues. As a reserve this season, Smith has averaged 9.1 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.5 triples per contest.

Smith (calf) is available for Sunday's game in Sacramento.

EDGE Analysis

Smith may have his minutes monitored in his first game back following a five-game stint on the sidelines, and it'll be interesting to see if he replaces Guerschon Yabusele in the starting lineup. Smith's return should mean fewer minutes for Nick Richards.

Smith (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Sacramento.

EDGE Analysis

Smith has missed Chicago's last five games with a right calf strain but is now listed as questionable due to a left calf strain. If he remains sidelined, Guerschon Yabusele and Nick Richards would likely see increased minutes.

Smith (calf) won't play Thursday against the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was added to the injury report as doubtful ahead of Thursday's matchup, so this update is no real surprise. His next chance to take the court will arrive Sunday in Sacramento.
