Chicago Bulls guard/forward DeMar DeRozan (right quad strain) is questionable for Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers.
DeRozan exited Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers early due to a right quadriceps strain. Alex Caruso (foot) is also questionable, so Derrick Jones Jr. and Javonte Green (knee, probable) could see additional minutes on Friday. Nikola Vucevic and Zach LaVine would also have more scoring opportunities if DeRozan is inactive.
numberFire's models project DDR for 36.5 minutes and 41.3 FanDuel points on Friday. Vooch is leading the Bulls with a positive differential of 11.1 FanDuel points per game (49.1) when DeRozan is out this season. LaVine is averaging an extra 6.1 FanDuel points per game (43.1) with DDR on the sidelines.
