NBC SportsNikola Vucevic (calf) is out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Vucevic will miss a fourth straight game due to his strained right calf. Zach Collins has been the replacement in the Bulls' lineup, most recently logging 40 minutes and recording a double-double in Friday's win over the Raptors. He needs to be rostered while Vucevic sits, while Jalen Smith offers limited fantasy value off the bench.

NBC SportsAyo Dosunmu (shoulder) and Jalen Smith (concussion) are available for Friday's game against the Raptors.

Dosunmu and Smith have missed the Bulls' last three games. While the former's return will likely mean fewer minutes for Dalen Terry and Tre Jones, the latter may not be as impactful in fantasy basketball circles. Zach Collins should remain the starter as the Bulls continue without the injured Nikola Vucevic. That limits Smith's fantasy potential, although he will get rotation minutes.

NBC SportsNikola Vucevic (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Raptors.

Friday's game will be the third straight game Vucevic has missed with a strained right calf. Zach Collins has replaced him in the starting lineup and should be streamed until Vooch is cleared to play. Jalen Smith will play rotation minutes off the bench, but his fantasy value is limited in that role.

NBC SportsJalen Smith (concussion) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Raptors.

Smith was on a roll before the All-Star break and has missed his last three games. It appears like he's ready to return to the hardwood, though. Smith will have a chance to take on a large role on Friday with Nikola Vucevic listed as doubtful.

NBC SportsNikola Vucevic (calf) is doubtful to play against the Raptors on Friday.

Vucevic is expected to miss a third straight game, which likely will lead to another start for Zach Collins, who recorded a 21/17/6/2 line on Wednesday. Jalen Smith (concussion) is questionable after missing Chicago's last three games, and he may take away some of Collins' minutes if he returns.
