Josh Giddey will be “out for a little bit” with a right ankle sprain, per Bulls coach Billy Donovan via K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network, though he’s progressing better than expected and was walking fine Wednesday. (K.C. Johnson)

Billy Donovan said Josh Giddey is doing much better than first anticipated. Out of walking boot. But he is “going to be out for a little bit.”’

Fantasy Impact:

Giddey’s absence starts with Thursday’s game against the Nets, but he’ll join Chicago’s six-game road trip beginning Saturday in Houston, with on-court work upcoming to set a return timeline. His multi-category production—scoring, rebounds, assists—takes a hit, pushing fantasy managers to stash him while awaiting clarity. Deeper-league rosters might need short-term fill-ins.
