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.

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.

Spencer finished with eight points (2-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one assist in 12 minutes during Wednesday's 124-117 preseason loss to Chicago.

Spencer made both of his field goals from beyond the arc and avoided committing a turnover. The veteran guard will look to build on his perimeter shooting as he competes for playing time in Phoenix's crowded backcourt, though his regular-season fantasy outlook remains limited.

Bouyea registered nine points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two assists and one steal in 12 minutes during Wednesday's 124-117 preseason loss to Chicago.

Bouyea provided an efficient scoring spark in limited action, although he also committed three turnovers. With Devin Booker and Collin Gillespie among Phoenix's backcourt options, Bouyea faces considerable competition for regular-season minutes.

Dunn recorded four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 124-117 preseason loss to Chicago.

Dunn made his presence felt defensively, leading Phoenix's reserves in playing time while contributing across several statistical categories. His defensive versatility could help him secure a consistent rotation role, though limited offensive production may restrict his fantasy upside.

Kennard finished with eight points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal in 13 minutes during Wednesday's 124-117 preseason loss to Chicago.

Kennard contributed as a secondary playmaker despite attempting just one three-pointer. The veteran sharpshooter figures to provide Phoenix with perimeter spacing and offensive versatility off the bench, though his fantasy value will depend largely on his playing time and three-point production.

LeVert (coach's decision) was inactive for Wednesday's 128-126 preseason victory over Oklahoma City.

LeVert was among several Milwaukee veterans who did not suit up Wednesday. There is no indication that his absence was injury-related, and he will have another opportunity to play Sunday against Charlotte.

Green (coach's decision) was inactive for Wednesday's 128-126 preseason victory over Oklahoma City.

Green joined several Milwaukee rotation players on the inactive list Wednesday. His absence was not attributed to an injury, and his next opportunity to take the floor will come Sunday against Charlotte.

Porter (coach's decision) was inactive for Wednesday's 128-126 preseason win over Oklahoma City.

Porter did not suit up as Milwaukee continued its preseason evaluations. The veteran guard's next opportunity to play will come Sunday against Charlotte, assuming he is available.

Trent (coach's decision) was inactive for Wednesday's 128-126 preseason win over Oklahoma City.

Trent's absence wasn't listed as injury-related, and Milwaukee may simply be evaluating other backcourt options during the preseason. His next opportunity to play will come Sunday against Charlotte.

Turner recorded 19 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 128-126 preseason win over Oklahoma City.

Turner delivered an efficient offensive performance while providing his usual rim protection. The veteran center's combination of perimeter shooting and shot-blocking should continue to make him a valuable fantasy option heading into the regular season.
