Chris Duarte News, Rumors, Updates - Chicago Bulls

Questionable vs. Thunder Duarte (toe) is questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Duarte missed the final two games before the break. Even if he doesn't return Friday, it seems like he'll be back in the lineup soon. An absence could open up minutes for Duane Washington, Lance Stephenson and Keifer Sykes.

Doesn't practice Wednesday Duarte (toe) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice session, James Boyd of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Duarte missed the Pacers' final two games prior to the All-Star break after jamming his toe against the Timberwolves on Feb. 13. His status for Friday's game against Oklahoma City hasn't been determined, but his absence from practice isn't encouraging. If Duarte remains out against the Thunder, Duane Washington, Buddy Hield and Lance Stephenson should continue to see additional run.

Out at least two games Duarte (toe) won't play Tuesday against the Bucks or Wednesday against the Wizards after exiting Sunday's game against Minnesota, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.

Impact Coach Rick Carlisle said Duarte jammed his toe against the Timberwolves, and the issue will keep him sidelined through the All-Star break. It's not yet clear whether the 24-year-old will be available for the Rising Stars game, but Duane Washington, Buddy Hield and Lance Stephenson should see additional playing time for the Pacers for at least the next two games.

Won't return Sunday Duarte (toe) won't return to Sunday's contest against the Timberwolves, James Boyd of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Duarte left Sunday's contest in the first quarter after appearing to tweak his ankle, but the Pacers have since diagnosed him with a sore left big toe. The rookie ends the contest with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound in four minutes. Lance Stephenson is expected to see an increased role for the remainder of the contest.

Uncertain to return Sunday Duarte has been diagnosed with a sore left big toe and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, James Boyd of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Prior to exiting, the rookie had supplied two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound in four minutes. Expect the team to provide an update on Duarte's status shortly after the halftime intermission.

Scores game-high 25 points Duarte finished Tuesday's 133-112 loss to the Hawks with 25 points (8-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), two rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes.

Impact With Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) out, Duarte and Lance Stephenson led the way for the Pacers, but they couldn't slow down the Hawks' high-powered offense. The rookie has started each of the past 11 games and has averaged 14.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 steals in 29.9 minutes during that stretch. However, in the wake of back-to-back trades, it's unclear what his role will be moving forward. The Pacers clearly view Duarte as a big part of their future, but when everyone's available, it's possible Indiana roles out a starting backcourt of Brogdon, Tyrese Haliburton and Buddy Hield, which would presumably shift Duarte back to the bench.

Leads Pacers in dull affair Duarte racked up 22 points (7-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 36 minutes during Sunday's 98-85 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact In the Pacers' first game after trading Caris LeVert to Cleveland, Duarte was the only starter to exceed 10 points. It nonetheless marked Duarte's best performance -- and his first time scoring 20-plus points -- in two weeks. The rookie is due for all the usage he can handle down the stretch, but performances like Sunday are a fair expectation for his fantasy ceiling.

Available Saturday Duarte (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Mavericks.

Impact Duarte was considered a game-time decision ahead of Saturday's matchup, but he'll be able to suit up after participating in pregame warmups. He's been part of the starting lineup in each of the last five games and has scored in double figures in six of his last seven appearances.

Questionable against Dallas Duarte is questionable for Saturday's game against the Mavericks due to a right ankle sprain.

Impact Duarte has started each of the last five games, and he averaged 14.8 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 30.0 minutes per contest during that time. If he's unavailable Saturday, Duane Washington and Jeremy Lamb should see increased playing time.

Compiles another strong stat line Duarte supplied 17 points (7-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 loss to the Suns.

Impact Duarte tied Lance Stephenson for high-scoring honors among Pacers players in the loss, and he led Indiana with four assists. The rookie has played at least 31 minutes in each of his past four games and is averaging 19.8 points, 5.8 boards, 4.0 dimes and 2.0 steals over that span. Caris LeVert (calf) should return to the lineup soon, but Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) could be in for an extended absence, giving Duarte a path to continued big minutes.
