Nikola Vucevic (rest) starting for Bulls in Game 1 on Sunday; Tristan Thompson back to bench
Chicago Bulls forward/center Nikola Vucevic will start Sunday in the team's game against the Milwaukee Bucks.
What It Means:
Vucevic got last Sunday's regular season finale off due to rest. But in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Playoffs, he is ready to return to the court. He'll also immediately start in his first game back, sending Tristan Thompson back to a bench role.
Our models project Vucevic for 17.6 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 39.8 FanDuel points across 36.1 minutes of action.
