Bulls' Josh Giddey: Makes history Saturday
Rotowire
Giddey finished Saturday's 146-115 win over the Lakers with 15 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 10 rebounds, 17 assists and eight steals across 33 minutes.

Giddey has been limited to just six appearances in March due to injuries, but he looked healthy in this contest and should continue to play a prominent role on offense for Chicago as long as he remains in good health.

Rotowire

Giddey logged 31 minutes and showed no ill effects from the ankle injury that produced a three-game absence. Kevin Huerter performed admirably while Giddey was out, but he will likely retreat back to the second unit if Giddey is able to complete the back-to-back. The Bulls are still playoff contenders, so Giddey's return to action will give the offense a much-needed boost.
