Justin Holiday Heads to Second Unit
Justin Holiday will move to the second unit for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. David Nwaba will draw the start ahead of him, and Bulls vice president John Paxson hinted this will be a long-term move. However, Paxton wants the younger players to see significant minutes. Holiday is expected to see minutes in the 20s with the second unit. His value is still expected to take a hit, and he's become a cut candidate in some leagues.

Justin Holiday Ruled Out For Monday's Contest
Justin Holiday (illness) has been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Chicago Bulls. He came down with a non-COVID illness and the illness caused him to exit early during the team's previous game against the Utah Jazz on Saturday. Donte DiVincenzo is slotting into the starting five to take Holiday's spot. DiVincenzo has really struggled so far this month. Over six games in March, while logging 23.8 minutes per contest, he's averaging 7.3 points and 2.8 assists per game and shooting 30.2% from the field. We'll see if Holiday is able to return to action for the team's next game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday.

Justin Holiday Exits Early Versus Jazz
Justin Holiday (illness) was forced to exit early during Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. He wasn't on the pregame injury report, but was unable to finish the game due to a non-COVID related illness. Holiday was only able to play nine minutes and it's uncertain if he'll be ready for their next contest. His absence resulted in more playing time for Jeremy Lamb. Both Lamb and Donte DiVincenzo could have some deep league appeal, assuming Holiday misses time.

Domantas Sabonis, Justin Holiday Will Play Wednesday
Domantas Sabonis and Justin Holiday will start during Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Both players have been cleared to play and will make their team debuts here. They will be joined by De'Aaron Fox, Harrison Barnes, and Chimezie Metu in the starting five. It'll be interesting to see how Sabonis and Holiday look in their new environment. Fantasy managers in season long formats should have Sabonis in their lineups. However, neither player is a great bet for DFS contests on Wednesday.

Justin Holiday Will Return On Wednesday
Justin Holiday will play during Wednesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He has missed each of the last six games while sitting out due to the league's COVID-19 protocols. Chris Duarte will lose fantasy value and minutes with the return of Holiday. Despite that, he is worth hanging onto in some formats because the Pacers are likely to rebuild soon. Holiday isn't much of a fantasy option and can probably be ignored in most formats right now.
