Matches season-high Vucevic finished Saturday's 112-99 loss to the Hornets with 28 points (11-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists and one block across 34 minutes.

Impact Vucevic matched his season-high, scoring 28 points for the third time. After slumping in early December, Vucevic has been able to turn things around in recent times, averaging 17.8 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.8 three-pointers in eight games over the past two weeks. Chicago's frontcourt is depleted at the moment, meaning Vucevic is likely to get all the playing time he can handle. If he can maintain his current momentum, he could prove to be an excellent sell-high candidate.

Sniffs double-double Vucevic posted 28 points (11-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists and a block across 34 minutes in Saturday's 112-99 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Vucevic was the Bulls' best player by a wide margin in this loss, ending just two assists away from a double-double. Vucevic should be one of the Bulls' most reliable offensive weapons for the time being due to the absences of Josh Giddey (hamstring) and Coby White (calf). However, Vucevic has scored 20 or more points in only two of his last six contests.

Tallies 23 points in loss Vucevic provided 23 points (10-17 FG, 3-5 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Monday's 136-101 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Vucevic took on a bigger load as a scorer with both Coby White (calf) and Josh Giddey (hamstring) leaving the game early. The veteran center led the Bulls in scoring on the night, drilling three shots from downtown for the first time since Nov. 22 against the Wizards. The 35-year-old has taken a small step back this season, but has remained solid during December, averaging 15.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.5 threes in 29 minutes per game across 13 contests.

Chips in 16 points in loss Vucevic ended with 16 points (7-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 26 minutes during Saturday's 112-103 loss to the Bucks.

Impact The veteran center tied Coby White for the team scoring lead on the night. Vucevic has seen his production take a step back this season, but his long-range shooting has remained consistent -- he's drained at least one three-pointer in 15 straight appearances, averaging 15.7 points, 8.7 boards, 3.1 assists, 1.5 threes and 1.4 combined steals and blocks in 29.0 minutes over that stretch. With Zach Collins leaving Saturday's loss late due to a lower-body injury, the Bulls may need to lean a little more heavily on Vucevic heading into the new year.
