Torrey Craig (ankle) will miss at least two weeks before being re-evaluated. The Bulls have only had the versatile veteran forward for nine games this season, and he has been sidelined since December 30 with what was originally called a lower leg contusion. The team announced on Monday that he has been diagnosed with a right ankle sprain and will be out for at least two weeks. When available, Craig averaged just 6.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 0.6 assists in 12.3 minutes per contest. He has flashed some upside, including scoring 18 points in his most recent game. However, the Bulls will continue to make their rotation work without him, leaving more work for
Matas Buzelis,
Talen Horton-Tucker, and
Julian Phillips.

Torrey Craig will miss a sixth straight game with a right lower leg contusion that has sidelined him since December 30. Craig averaged just 6.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 0.6 assists in his nine games this season and averaged 12.3 minutes per contest. The veteran did flash upside with 18 points in his most recent game against the Hornets, but he'll continue to be a non-factor for fantasy on Sunday.

Torrey Craig (leg) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's matchup against the New York Knicks after missing practice Friday. If Craig cannot suit up, he will miss his second consecutive contest due to a lower right leg contusion. The 34-year-old has only reached the 20-minute mark twice this season, so he doesn't have a significant role in the Bulls' rotation.
Matas Buzelis and
Julian Phillips should fill Craig's minutes if unavailable.

Torrey Craig is likely to miss the Bulls' New Year's Day matchup with the Wizards due to a right lower leg contusion. Craig matched his career-high with five three-pointers in Monday's win over the Hornets while helping to fill in for
Zach LaVine (toe), who is questionable. The 34-year-old veteran has only played 12.6 minutes per game this season and has only scored double-digit points three times. If he's out on Wednesday as expected with LaVine also out,
Matas Buzelis,
Julian Phillips,
Talen Horton-Tucker, and
Patrick Williams are all options to pick up more work in a favorable matchup against the Wizards. When LaVine returns, Craig will likely return to a limited role without much fantasy impact.
