Josh Giddey Injury Update: Tuesday 4/1/25 vs. the Raptors

NBA DraftKings Network News

Updated:

By: Alex Hunter

UPDATE: Both Josh Giddey and Kevin Huerter are available tonight vs. the Raptors.

Giddey ($9,600, injury management) has been listed as questionable for Tuesday’s matchup vs. the Raptors. Kevin Huerter ($5,900, thumb), Dalen Terry ($3,600, calf), and Julian Phillips ($3,000, quad) are also questionable for the Bulls, while Lonzo Ball ($4,700, wrist) is doubtful.

Giddey has been outstanding since the All-Star break, averaging a near triple-double of 21.3 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 8.9 assists per game. However, Giddey has seen less than 30 minutes in each of his last two starts. One of these games, oddly, was a one-point loss to the Mavericks, in which all the other Bulls’ starters received over 30 minutes of work. Giddey is likely dealing with some nagging injuries right now, and him sitting Tuesday wouldn’t be a surprise.

If Giddey is out, Coby White ($8,400), Nikola Vucevic ($7,700), and Matas Buzelis ($5,000) all will see larger usage rates and be great DFS targets. With Giddey off the floor since the All-Star break, White is leading Chicago with a 29% usage rate, and he is scoring 1.2 FPTS per minute.

The Bulls are 3-2 with Giddey inactive since the All-Star break, and Chicago is a 4.5-point home favorite over Toronto on DraftKings Sportsbook.
