Jalen Smith - Starting sans Vucevic Smith will start in Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Impact The big man will receive the starting nod due to Nikola Vucevic (calf) being sidelined. Smith hasn't been a regular part of Chicago's rotation of late, and over his last five appearances, he has averaged 6.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 10.4 minutes per contest.

Jevon Carter - Starting against Cleveland Carter is in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Cavaliers.
Impact Carter will replace Josh Giddey (forearm) in the starting lineup Tuesday. Carter has only played more than 20 minutes in two games this season, so it's unclear how much playing time he will receive.
APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE
Dalen Terry - Starting Tuesday Terry will start in Tuesday's game against Cleveland.
Impact Terry will get the starting nod Tuesday due to four of the club's usual starters being sidelined. Over his last five outings (one start), the 22-year-old forward has averaged 2.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals across 17.8 minutes per contest.

Patrick Williams - Enters starting lineup Tuesday Williams is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Impact The Bulls are missing most of their key starters Tuesday, opening up an opportunity for Williams to crack the first unit. It'll be the 2020 first-rounder's first start since Jan. 25, and Williams has averaged 7.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.6 blocks and 0.5 steals in 26.2 minutes through his last 14 games as a starter.

Josh Giddey - Won't suit up Tuesday Giddey (forearm) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Impact Giddey will miss the front end of the club's back-to-back set due to right forearm tendinopathy. His next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Heat. Talen Horton-Tucker and Dalen Terry are candidates for an uptick in playing time due to Giddey being sidelined.

Nikola Vucevic - Won't play vs. Cleveland Vucevic (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.
