Giddey (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against Houston.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey appears likely to miss a second straight game, but he is traveling with the team and doesn't have enough swelling to require a walking boot. Assuming he's out Saturday, a return Monday against the Jazz may not be out of the question.

Head coach Billy Donovan said Thursday that Giddey (ankle) will travel with the club on its upcoming road trip, and the Bulls are optimistic that he could return at some point in that six-game span, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey continues to rehab a right ankle injury that he sustained during Monday's win over Indiana. Donovan relayed that there is still some swelling, though Giddey isn't in as much pain anymore, per Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com. The 22-year-old will likely still miss Saturday's game against Houston, though this update bodes well for his return in the near future. Giddey has been impressive in nine appearance since the All-Star break, averaging 23.1 points, 10.9 rebounds, 8.4 assists and 1.0 steals across 35.0 minutes per game.

Bulls coach Billy Donovan said Wednesday that Giddey's right ankle sprain will keep him "out for a little bit," K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Donovan said Giddey is doing much better than first anticipated, and the guard was walking around fine when he met with the media Wednesday. Giddey will not play Thursday against the Nets, but he will travel with the Bulls on their six-game road trip, which begins Saturday in Houston. He'll do some on-court work soon, at which point a timeline is likely to be established. Although Donovan has ruled Giddey out, the Bulls listed him as doubtful on their afternoon injury report.

Giddey won't return to Monday's game against the Pacers due to a right ankle sprain. He recorded 29 points (11-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and one block over 28 minutes before departing.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey was sent to the locker room during the fourth quarter and likely wouldn't have returned even if healthy given a commanding Chicago lead. The team noted after the game that Giddey is headed for further testing to determine the extent of the injury, and he was spotted leaving the arena wearing a walking boot, per K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network.

Giddey left Monday's game against the Pacers due to an apparent lower-body injury, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear as to when Giddey picked up the injury, but he'll head to the locker room to get checked out. Tre Jones would likely be asked to pick up the slack if Giddey can't return.

Giddey racked up 26 points (9-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 10 rebounds, 12 assists, one block and one steal in 37 minutes during Saturday's 114-109 win over the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey has been playing at a very high level since the All-Star break, and he notched his first triple-double since Dec. 28, when he posted 23 points, 15 boards and 10 assists in a win over the Bucks. He had ended just one dime away from reaching this feat in a win over the Magic on Thursday, and his numbers are undoubtedly impressive. Over his last eight games, Giddey is averaging 22.4 points, 11.0 rebounds and 9.0 assists per contest.

Giddey (quadriceps) is listed as available for Thursday's game versus the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey will return to action Thursday after missing Chicago's previous contest due to a left quadriceps contusion. The 22-year-old guard should reclaim his starting spot from Tre Jones. Giddey is averaging 19.2 points, 8.3 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 steals in 32.8 minutes across his last 10 outings.

Giddey (quadriceps) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey missed his first game since Dec. 26 on Tuesday against Cleveland, but the point forward remains day-to-day. If Giddey is held out for a second straight game, Tre Jones could be poised for another start. Against the Cavaliers, Jones produced nine points, eight rebounds, seven assists and one block in 34 minutes.

Giddey (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Cleveland, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

The left quadriceps contusion is a new injury for Giddey, who will miss his first outing since Dec. 26. With the 22-year-old joining Lonzo Ball (wrist) and Kevin Huerter (knee) on the sideline, Jevon Carter, Talen Horton-Tucker and Tre Jones are candidates for an uptick in playing time. Giddey's next chance to play will come Thursday against Orlando.

Giddey (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey has recently popped up on the injury report due to a sprained left ankle, but he has been able to play through the issue and has averaged 21.4 points, 9.8 rebounds, 9.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks over 35.4 minutes per game over his last five outings. However, Giddey is now working through a left quadriceps contusion, which has put him in jeopardy of missing Tuesday's game. Tre Jones could be inserted into the Bulls' starting lineup if Giddey is not cleared to play.
