Fantasy Impact: Chicago may want to move Vucevic, though his contract may make it more difficult. He is still a double-double machine if a contending team is willing to take him on.

Kevin Huerter scored 18 points (6-11 FG, 5-7 3PT, 1-2 FT) to go along with two rebounds and two assists in the Bulls 122-102 win over the 76ers.
Fantasy Impact: Huerter was one of a few starters to play limited minutes for Chicago. Despite only playing 16 points, he made the most of them statistically. He should continue to start in the play-in tournament with Lonzo Ball (wrist) sidelined.

Julian Phillips scored 23 points (7-11 FG, 3-6 3PT, 6-6 FT) and grabbed nine rebounds in Friday's 119-89 win over the Washington Wizards.
Fantasy Impact: The Bulls were able to pick up an easy win over the Wizards on Friday. Phillips played a big part in that, leading the team in scoring and falling just one rebound shy of a double-double. Fantasy managers shouldn't have high expectations for him in the team's last game of the season on Sunday, however.

Fantasy Impact: Buzelis was able to do a bit of everything on both sides of the floor with Chicago being down most of its starting lineup. He'll look to close the regular season strong with three games to go.

Zach Collins ended up with just four points in Sunday's 131-117 road win against the Charlotte Hornets.
Fantasy Impact: Collins misfired on four of his six field-goal attempts, but he did shine with eight rebounds and two assists in his 15 minutes off the bench. He might have hit double digits in boards if not for four personal fouls keeping him nailed to the bench for long stretches.

Fantasy Impact: Carter's shoulder injury is a relatively new one, but it may still leave him sidelined for another game on Friday. If that's the case, expect more work for Kevin Huerter while he's out.
