Josh Giddey News, Rumors, Updates - Chicago Bulls

Muted line in loss Giddey totaled 13 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 25 minutes during Friday's 125-111 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Giddey's 13 points were his most in a game so far this regular season, but he hasn't been able to stuff the stat sheet like he did in each of the two prior seasons. Part of his struggles may be due to a lingering left wrist injury from training camp, although he hasn't shown up on the Bulls' injury report as of late. Giddey's slow start to the season is of some concern, and he'll continue to face tough competition as the Bulls travel to Philadelphia to face the 76ers on Monday.

Falls short of triple-double Giddey ended with 10 points (4-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, 11 assists and one steal over 31 minutes in Wednesday's 133-127 loss to the Knicks.

Impact After ending the 2025-26 campaign by averaging a career-high 17.0 points, Giddey has been quiet on the offensive end in his first five appearances of the season. While he should pick it up at some point moving forward, he might not be as productive offensively as he was in previous years, considering the Bulls have Caleb Wilson, Matas Buzelis and Norman Powell all looking for scoring opportunities. Still, Giddey is a skilled all-around player, so he should continue to make a difference in other statistical areas even if he doesn't increase his scoring contributions.

Teases triple-double against Wizards Giddey racked up nine points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, 10 assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Saturday's 124-120 loss to Washington.

Impact The 24-year-old guard has yet to score in double digits as he puts a preseason wrist issue behind him, but Giddey has 19 assists over the last two games as he builds chemistry with new teammates Caleb Wilson and Norman Powell. Giddey nearly averaged a triple-double in 2025-26 with 17.0 points, 9.1 assists and 8.3 boards a game, and he should quickly return to that level of production once he's back in the flow.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Struggles continue Friday Giddey posted six points (3-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and nine assists over 25 minutes during Friday's 132-125 victory over Milwaukee.

Impact Giddey played through a wrist injury, although he was certainly far from his best once again. Although he did manage a game-high nine assists, his scoring was well below expectations, as was his playing time. Given that fantasy managers likely invested a high draft pick to secure him, the only course of action is to ride this out and hope he turns things around sooner rather than later. For those interested in acquiring Giddey, now would be a good time to throw out a buy-low offer.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to play Friday Giddey (wrist) is available for Friday's game against the Bucks.

Impact Giddey was previously listed as probable due to a left wrist sprain, but he'll be able to suit up for the first half of Chicago's back-to-back set. The injury reportedly affected his shooting during Wednesday's season opener against Toronto, when he managed just two points on 1-for-10 shooting. His availability is encouraging, though the wrist issue could continue to affect his offensive efficiency.

OCTOBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to play Friday Giddey (wrist) is probable for Friday's game against the Bucks.

Impact The star guard is expected to suit up for the first half of this back-to-back set. Giddey will be looking to right the ship after scoring just two points during Wednesday's blowout loss in Toronto.

OCTOBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Poor performance in 2026-27 opener Giddey provided two points (1-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), seven rebounds and six assists across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 135-92 loss to Toronto.

Impact Giddey couldn't get anything going offensively, missing all but one of his 10 field-goal attempts while contributing to five of the Bulls' 27 turnovers. His minus-39 point differential was second-worst on the team only to rookie Caleb Wilson (minus-45) in what was about as bad of a start to the season as you can get for the Bulls. Giddey is coming off a career year in 2025-26, and his next chance to get back on track is Friday against the Bucks.

OCTOBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Inefficient shooting night Friday Giddey finished with 12 points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block across 19 minutes in Friday's 133-116 preseason win over Minnesota.

Impact Giddey had an inefficient shooting night to close out the preseason. The 24-year-old is coming off his most productive campaign in 2025-26, averaging 17.0 points, 8.3 rebounds and 9.1 assists, all career highs, along with 1.0 steals over 32.1 minutes per contest. However, he was limited to 54 regular-season games. Giddey has All-Star upside, though he will need to stay healthy, which has been an issue at times over the years.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Dishes eight dimes against Denver Giddey scored seven points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT) while adding eight assists, one rebound, one steal and one block in 24 minutes during Sunday's preseason loss to the Nuggets.

Impact The 24-year-old guard didn't make his usual impact with his shot or on the glass, but Giddey did lead the Bulls in assists on the night. Through three exhibition contests, he's averaging 9.0 points, 6.0 dimes, 3.0 boards, 1.0 threes and 1.0 blocks in 23.3 minutes, but his track record suggests he'll again be a regular triple-double threat once his workload increases and the games begin to count -- his 13 triple-doubles in 2025-26 tied the Hawks' Jalen Johnson for second in the league, behind only Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic's 34.

OCTOBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Chips in 13 points in Friday's loss Giddey finished Friday's 104-100 preseason loss to Memphis with 13 points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three assists, three rebounds and one block over 23 minutes.

Impact Giddey was one of four Bulls players to score in double digits during Friday's exhibition contest, and he finished as the team's third-leading scorer behind rookie Caleb Wilson (21) and veteran Norman Powell (17). Giddey is aiming to build off a productive 2025-26 season, during which he averaged career highs across the board, including in points (17.0), assists (9.1) and rebounds (8.3), though his 44.8 percent field-goal rate were his lowest since his rookie campaign with the Thunder in 2021-22 (41.9 percent on 12.4 FGA/G).

OCTOBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Hands out seven dimes Giddey finished with seven points (1-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one block in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 124-117 preseason win over Phoenix.

Impact Giddey struggled with his shot but remained effective as a facilitator, leading Chicago in assists during the preseason opener. The 24-year-old guard should continue serving as the Bulls' primary playmaker, with his contributions in assists and rebounds providing fantasy value even when his scoring is limited.
