Good to go Monday Craig (ankle) will play Monday versus Dallas, Annie Costabile of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Dealing with ankle sprain Craig is questionable for Monday's game against Dallas due to a right ankle sprain.
Impact Craig continue stacking a list of lower body injuries, with his current injury designation marking the second right ankle sprain he has dealt with this season, in addition to unrelated heel and knee injuries. Nonetheless, he appears firmly on track to play Monday.

Limited output in return Craig (knee) logged 14 minutes off the bench in Thursday's 125-122 win over the Warriors, finishing with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two assists, one rebound and one block.
Impact Making his return from a seven-game absence due to a right knee sprain, Craig was on a 12-to-16-minute restriction in his first game back in action. He ended up settling right in the middle of that restriction, but he could see a slight increase in playing time as he becomes further removed from the knee injury. Craig typically handles a low-usage role on offense and doesn't offer standout production in any one area, so he's worthy of consideration only in the deepest of leagues.
MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE
Will play Thursday Craig (knee) will play Thursday against the Warriors, Darnell Mayberry of The Athletic reports.
Impact Craig will return from a seven-game absence and will be limited to 12-16 minutes, so he can't be considered a viable target in most leagues. With Craig active, Julian Phillips could drop from the rotation entirely.
MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy against Golden State Craig (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Warriors.
Impact Craig has missed Chicago's last seven games due to a right knee sprain. However, there is optimism within the organization that the 32-year-old forward will be able to suit up Thursday.
MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE
Out as expected Craig (knee) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Craig was initially listed as doubtful, so his absence doesn't come as a surprise. However, he seems to be nearing a return after sustaining a right knee sprain during the All-Star break. His next chance to go will come Thursday at Golden State.
MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE
Unlikely to play Wednesday Craig (knee) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Jazz.
Impact Craig is expected to miss his seventh straight game Wednesday due to a right knee sprain. However, the veteran forward not being immediately ruled out is a good sign that he is nearing a return to action.
MARCH 5 • ROTOWIRE
Return could be near Craig (knee) could return on Chicago's upcoming road trip, Julia Poe of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Impact Craig returning Wednesday against Utah would be a surprise, but outings on Thursday against Golden State or Saturday against the Clippers are shaping up to be real possibilities. The 33-year-old has missed Chicago's five contests since the All-Star break after suffering a knee sprain during a personal workout, but he appears to be operating on the early side of his 2-to-4 week re-evaluation. Coach Billy Donovan noted Craig will return under a heavy minutes restriction when he ultimately takes the court.
MARCH 5 • ROTOWIRE
Out at least two weeks The Bulls announced Tuesday that Craig sustained a right knee sprain while working out this past weekend and will be re-evaluated in 2-4 weeks.
Impact Craig suffered his injury while working out over the All-Star break. With Patrick Williams (foot) still out, Chicago will likely have to rely on Dalen Terry and Julian Phillips to play increased minutes in the forward rotation.

Doubtful Thursday, headed for testing Craig injured his knee while working out over the All-Star break and is headed for further testing, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports. Craig is doubtful for Thursday's gam...
Impact The specifics of Craig's knee injury has yet to be reported, but a better understanding of the severity should come in following days. The 33-year-old has missed 22 games due to a right plantar fascia sprain, beginning to generate durability concerns. Patrick Williams (foot) has yet to resume running, which could make Chicago's cast of forwards thin moving forward.
FEBRUARY 20 • ROTOWIRE
Set to play against Cleveland Craig (toe) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Cavaliers.
Impact Craig has been upgraded from probable to available Wednesday despite dealing with a left toe sprain. The veteran forward is averaging 5.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 20.0 minutes across his last five appearances.
FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE
Draws probable tag for Wednesday Craig (toe) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Impact For the second game in a row, Craig appears on Chicago's injury report with a left toe sprain, but it didn't prevent him from playing in Monday's 136-126 win over the Hawks and shouldn't keep him off the court Wednesday either. While Alex Caruso (toe) was sidelined Monday, Craig played 27 minutes -- his most since Dec. 11 -- and finished with nine points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block.
FEBRUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE
Chips in nine points Craig closed with nine points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 27 minutes during Monday's 136-126 win over Atlanta.
Impact Craig profiles is the only true forward in Chicago's rotation at the moment, with DeMar DeRozan, Ayo Dosunmu and Dalen Terry representing the rest of the wing rotation. Craig will likely be leaned on for a 20-30 minute role until Patrick Williams (foot) returns.
FEBRUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE
Cleared and unrestricted Monday Craig (toe) is active and starting in Monday's game against Atlanta. He will not have a minute restriction in the contest, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

FEBRUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE
On track for Monday Craig is listed as probable for Monday's game against Atlanta due to a toe sprain.
Impact Craig has suited up in four consecutive contests for Chicago since returning from a 22-game absence due to a right plantar fascia sprain, so his presence on Sunday's injury report could be more maintenance related. He's trending in the right direction for Monday's game.
FEBRUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE
Playing Saturday Craig (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against Orlando.
Impact Despite being included in the injury report and being tabbed as a game-time call, Baldwin will suit up, just like it happened with Coby White (ankle) and Alex Caruso (thigh). Baldwin should continue playing his role off the bench, though he doesn't have much fantasy appeal if he's deployed with the second unit.
FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE
Probable for Saturday's game Craig (ankle) is probable for Saturday's game against Orlando.
Impact Craig was able to suit up despite his sprained right ankle Thursday against the Grizzlies, and he'll likely be available once again Saturday. He tallied three points, five rebounds and an assist in 16 minutes Thursday.
FEBRUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE
Will suit up Thursday Craig (ankle) is available to play Thursday against the Grizzlies.
Impact Craig suffered a right ankle sprain during Tuesday's overtime win over the Timberwolves, and while he was doubtful earlier Thursday, in the end, he'll suit up and play off the bench. Craig is averaging 20.7 minutes, 8.9 points and 5.0 rebounds per game off the bench in his last 10 appearances.
FEBRUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Thursday Craig (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies.
Impact Craig suffered a right ankle sprain during Tuesday's overtime win over the Timberwolves, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available two days later. If he's sidelined against Memphis, Julian Phillips and Terry Taylor could see additional playing time.

Suffers ankle injury Coach Billy Donovan said Craig suffered an ankle injury in overtime during Tuesday's 129-123 win over the Timberwolves, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.
Impact Craig recorded seven points, six rebounds, two blocks, one assist and one steal in 22 minutes before suffering his ankle injury. While the severity of Craig's injury is uncertain, his next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with Memphis.

Active but limited Tuesday Craig (heel) will play on a minutes restriction Tuesday versus Minnesota, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports.
Impact Craig will be on a minutes restriction in his second game back from a right plantar fascia sprain. He logged 14 minutes in Saturday's loss to Sacramento and will likely reprise a similar role Tuesday.
FEBRUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE
Probable for Tuesday Craig (foot) is probable for Tuesday's game against Minnesota.
Impact Craig played for the first time since Dec. 16 after a 22-game absence on Saturday versus the Kings, finishing with five points (2-5 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and three rebounds across 14 minutes. He could potentially see a few more minutes Tuesday with Alex Caruso (adductor) considered questionable to suit up.
FEBRUARY 5 • ROTOWIRE
Gets light role in return Craig (heel) tallied five points (2-5 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and three rebounds across 14 minutes in Saturday's 123-115 loss to the Kings.
Impact Craig was cleared to play for the first time since Dec. 16 following a 22-game absence due to a right heel plantar fascia sprain. Though the Bulls will be without Zach LaVine (foot) for the rest of the season and Patrick Williams (foot) through the All-Star break, Craig won't necessarily see his playing time increase dramatically from the 14 minutes he received Saturday. The Bulls have been making more use of small-ball lineups of late featuring Ayo Dosunmu and Alex Caruso as the team's starting wings, with DeMar DeRozan pushing up from small forward to power forward in the absence of Williams. With Dosunmu and Caruso both routinely clearing 30 minutes in recent contests, Craig likely won't have a path to more than 20-to-25 minutes per game even if he cements himself as the team's top forward off the bench.
FEBRUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE
Available to play Craig (heel) is available to play in Saturday's game against the Kings, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Impact Craig was able to practice on Friday and has the green light to return after being sidelined since mid-December. With how shorthanded the Bulls are, Craig could earn himself a large role going forward. The veteran holds averages of 6.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.1 three-pointers this season.
FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE
Chance to return Saturday Craig (foot) was a full participant during Friday's practice and has a chance to play in Saturday's game against the Kings, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Impact Craig's official status for Saturday's game will be released Friday night, but it sounds like he could be listed as questionable for the first time since landing on the injury report. The veteran forward has been out since mid-December, but he's on the verge of a return, though he figures to be limited to a reserve role during his first game back.
