Smith produced 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and two steals across 31 minutes during Sunday's 124-102 victory over the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Smith moved into the starting lineup for the fifth time this campaign, recording his seventh double-double in the process. He's in the midst of a very strong campaign, posting averages of 9.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 0.9 blocks in 19.0 minutes per contest.

Smith is in the Bulls' starting lineup against the Nets on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will make his fifth start of the season Sunday, replacing Tre Jones in the Bulls' starting lineup. Smith has recorded a double-double in each of his last two outings, having averaged 13.0 points, 11.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 3.0 threes and 2.0 blocks over 26.0 minutes per game over that span.

Smith closed with 14 points (4-11 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, four assists, four blocks and one steal over 35 minutes during Friday's 112-109 loss to the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Smith logged a season-high 35 minutes, recording his second straight double-double, while also adding five combined steals-plus-blocks. Despite coming off the bench to start the game, Smith started the second half, helping fuel a comeback that ultimately fell just short. Although his efficiency continues to be an issue, Smith is certainly doing enough to be rostered in standard leagues, flirting with top-100 value in five games over the past two weeks.

Smith finished with 12 points (3-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 10 rebounds and one assist in 17 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 128-126 win over Utah.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old center delivered his fifth double-double of the season, three of which have come in his last six games (four starts). Over nine contests since Christmas, Smith is averaging 10.8 points, 9.0 boards, 1.3 blocks, 1.3 threes and 1.1 assists in 23.0 minutes, and his fantasy value could get a significant boost if Nikola Vucevic is traded, especially if Zach Collins (toe) remains sidelined as well.

Smith will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

Smith started in Tuesday's loss to the Rockets, but with Coby White back in action and starting, Smith will shift back to the second unit. As a reserve this season, Smith has posted averages of 8.7 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.4 triples and 0.8 blocks per contest.

Smith supplied 14 points (5-13 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine rebounds and one assist across 36 minutes during Tuesday's 119-113 loss to the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Smith fell one rebound short of a double-double after being elevated into the starting lineup, with Coby White sidelined due to injury management. Having only just returned from a two-game absence, Smith logged a season-high 36 minutes, putting himself back on the standard league radar. While he presents as more of a stash than a must-roster player, he could be worth a speculative pickup right now, especially if he remains a sizeable part of the rotation.

Smith is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's matchup with the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Coby White (rest) is out, so the Bulls will go big and start Tre Jones, Isaac Okoro, Matas Buzelis, Smith and Nikola Vucevic. In three starts this season, Smith has registered averages of 11.3 points, 9.7 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.0 triples, 1.0 steals and 2.0 blocks per contest.

Smith finished with seven points (3-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds and two blocks in 16 minutes during Saturday's 125-107 win over the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was back in action, having missed the previous two games due to a concussion. Prior to his absence, Smith had been starting alongside Nikola Vucevic, a role that saw him putting up standard-league numbers. Although he came off the bench Saturday, it remains to be seen whether that will stick or whether he will move back into the starting lineup. Managers could do worse than grabbing him as a speculative pickup.

Smith (concussion) is available for Saturday's game against the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was initially listed as questionable but was upgraded to probable Saturday before being cleared to suit up. It's unclear if he'll operate under a minutes restriction during his return, though the big man should see significant minutes with Zach Collins (toe) sidelined. Over his last five appearances (three starts), Smith has averaged 10.4 points, 9.0 rebounds and 1.8 blocks in 23.2 minutes per tilt.

Smith has been upgraded to probable for Saturday's game against Dallas.

EDGE Analysis

Smith's midday upgrade from questionable to probable is an encouraging sign for his availability Saturday. The big man has been in concussion protocol and has missed back-to-back games. Smith is averaging 9.0 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 17.7 minutes per game this season.
