Giddey (back) was held out of practice Thursday but feels much better and is expected to play Friday, Julia Poe of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey left Wednesday's practice with tightness in his back, and even though he did not practice Thursday, him being expected to play Friday is an encouraging sign that the injury he is dealing with is minor. He is averaging 11.7 points, 6.9 assists, 6.2 rebounds, 0.8 steals and 0.4 blocks across 27.0 minutes so far this season.

Giddey left Wednesday's practice early with back tightness, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

This sounds like a minor issue for Giddey, but it's worth monitoring ahead of Friday's game against Charlotte. Until more information is known, fantasy managers can operate under the assumption that Giddey is probable for that contest.

Giddey totaled nine points (4-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, 11 assists, one block and two steals across 32 minutes during Sunday's 108-100 loss to the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey did a little bit of everything for Chicago in Sunday's contest, leading all Bulls players in assists while ending second on the team in rebounds and one point short of the double-digit mark in a balanced performance. Giddey posted his fourth outing of the season with 10 or more dimes, and he's accompanied those performances with at least nine points and five boards in all four instances.

Giddey (foot) is listed as available for Friday's game against the Pacers.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey was a late addition to the injury report due to right foot soreness, though he'll play Friday and keep his streak of perfect attendance alive. The 22-year-old averaged 11.2 points, 7.4 assists, 6.2 rebounds and 1.2 steals across 25.8 minutes per contest in his last five appearances.

Giddey (foot) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Pacers.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey was a late addition to the injury report due to right foot soreness, though he is likely to suit up Friday. If the 22-year-old is sidelined, Ayo Dosunmu and Talen Horton-Tucker should pick up the slack, especially with Coby White (ankle) and Lonzo Ball (knee) questionable for the contest.

Giddey (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey was dealing with a right ankle sprain, but the Australian guard will suit up and should handle his regular workload in the Bulls' backcourt. Giddey is coming off his first triple-double of the season, posting 20 points, 13 rebounds, 11 assists, one steal and one block in a 128-102 win over the Nets on Monday. Giddey should experience a high usage rate considering Chicago will be missing both Coby White (ankle) and Lonzo Ball (knee).

Giddey is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Spurs due to a sprained right ankle.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey is coming off his first triple-double of the season, posting 20 points, 13 rebounds, 11 assists, one steal and one block in a 128-102 win over the Nets. Coby White (ankle) and Lonzo Ball (knee) have already been ruled out, so the Bulls could be especially shorthanded in the backcourt if Giddey is also shelved. That could lead to extra minutes for a variety of players, including rookie Matas Buzelis and Talen Horton-Tucker.

Giddey recorded 20 points (9-17 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 13 rebounds, 11 assists, one steal and one block in 32 minutes during Monday's 128-102 win over the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey struggled with his shot from range, but that's about the only area in which he floundered Monday evening. He secured his first triple-double since joining the Bulls and posted his best scoring performance since Oct. 30, when he put up 20 points versus Orlando. Monday's showing was a positive sign for the 22-year-old, who was held to a season-low four points in his previous appearance Friday against Boston.

Giddey posted five points (2-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds and three assists over 26 minutes in Wednesday's 122-106 loss to Milwaukee.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey has been inefficient offensively to start the season, shooting just 40.6 percent from the field and 35.6 percent from three, but he is averaging 11.8 points, 6.4 assists, 6.2 rebounds, 0.7 blocks and 0.2 blocks across 27.2 minutes. If his shot isn't falling, Giddey will look to get his other teammates involved, and his next opportunity to bounce back will be Friday against Atlanta.

Giddey finished Monday's 122-112 win over Detroit with 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), eight rebounds and 10 assists over 29 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Giddey was somewhat efficient on the offensive end and scored in double figures for the first time in a week. He also put together his best passing performance since Nov. 7, good enough for his third double-double of the 2024-25 campaign. There should be plenty of opportunities to rack up assists for Giddey moving forward, at least while Nikola Vucevic, Zach LaVine and Coby White all continue to play at a high level.
