Taj Gibson (ankle) out for Bulls, Paul Zipser expected to start
Chicago Bulls forward/center Taj Gibson (sore ankle) will miss Tuesday's matchup with the Dallas Mavericks, and Paul Zipser is expected to get the start in his place.
What It Means:
Gibson's absence will mean more playing time for Nikola Mirotic, who returns on Tuesday after an illness sidelined him for four games. Zipser played just 15 minutes of action in his last start, so he's not a recommended DFS option.
Our models project Mirotic for 9.9 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 24.4 minutes in his return to action on Tuesday. He comes with a $4,200 price tag on FanDuel.
