Chris Duarte News, Rumors, Updates - Chicago Bulls

Goes for team-high 25 points Duarte closed Saturday's 130-112 loss to the Grizzlies with 25 points (7-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 30 minutes.

Impact Duarte has hit double figures in scoring in just four of his 23 appearances this season, but he's now gone for 25 or more points in two of those contests. Despite briefly exiting from Saturday's contest with a hand injury, Duarte proceeded to return to the game and finished with an excellent line while playing his most minutes since Oct. 31. Duarte's hot shooting likely played a factor in him garnering extended run, and while he should benefit from a slight uptick in playing time while Tyrese Haliburton (knee) is out, the second-year wing may see his minutes fall closer to the 20-to-25 range in most games moving forward.

Impact In just his second game back from a lengthy absence due to an ankle injury, Duarte found his three-point stroke in a big way.

Indiana Pacers wing Chris Duarte looks comfortable in return vs New York Knicks Duarte missed six weeks of action for the Pacers with an ankle injury

DECEMBER 20, 2022 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Middling numbers in return Duarte (ankle) finished with six points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-5 FT) and two rebounds across 15 minutes in Sunday's 109-106 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Though he was on a playing-time restriction Sunday while he made his first appearance for Indiana in more than a month and a half due to a left ankle sprain, Duarte may not see his minutes pick up dramatically while Indiana has all of its key rotation players available. Prior to getting hurt, Duarte averaged 19.7 minutes per game over his first nine appearances of the 2022-23 campaign. A 2021-22 NBA All-Rookie Second Team selection a year ago, Duarte has been hurt by the arrivals of Bennedict Mathurin and Andrew Nembhard via the draft and Aaron Nesmith via trade over this past summer.

Returning on minutes restriction Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said Duarte (ankle) will play in Sunday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Though he'll be cleared for his first NBA action since Nov. 4, Duarte may have a smaller minutes load than usual, according to Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis. Prior to suffering his left ankle sprain, Duarte had averaged 8.9 points, 2.1 rebounds, 1.4 three-pointers and 1.0 assists in 19.7 minutes per contest over nine appearances. Duarte most recently made two appearances with the G League's Fort Wayne Mad Ants to get ramped up, so he won't be coming into Sunday's contest completely cold.

Chris Duarte upgraded to questionable for Indiana Pacers after G League rehab assignment Duarte hasn’t played for the Pacers since November 4

DECEMBER 18, 2022 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Questionable Sunday Duarte (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Knicks.

Impact Duarte will have an opportunity to return to the NBA court after suffering a left ankle sprain Nov. 4. He has spent the tail end of his rehab with the Pacers G League affiliate and logged 34 minutes in his most recent game with the team. Although his hefty G League workload bodes well for his future debut, he will still likely be closely monitored when he does return. His return would likely take minutes away from Andrew Nembhard, Budy Hield and Aaron Nesmith.

DECEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient outing in G League debut Duarte (ankle) posted 18 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists, two rebounds and two steals in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 128-110 win over the Herd.

Impact Duarte was sent to the G League to get in some game action with the Mad Ants while rehabbing from a left ankle sprain that's sidelined him since early November. The second-year guard played well across limited action and figures to see a similar workload during Friday's rematch against the Herd.

Impact Duarte, who has been sidelined since early November with a left ankle sprain, will get some run in with the G League club after he checked out fine following a workout Saturday with the NBA team. Assuming the second-year wing remains free of setbacks during his two-game stint in the G League, he should rejoin the Pacers ahead of Sunday's game against the Knicks. Expect Duarte to handle a limited role off the bench if he's available for that contest.
