Fantasy basketball managers are monitoring the rising values of Chicago Bulls rookie Matas Buzelis and Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey as trade speculation surrounds Bulls veteran Norman Powell. The rumors intensified after Powell, 24, reacted following Chicago's game against the New York Knicks at the United Center on October 28, 2026.
Analysts suggest that a potential Powell departure could open additional playing time and usage for Buzelis, while Giddey's role may expand if Oklahoma City pursues a deal involving the Bulls guard. Both players have seen increased interest in fantasy leagues as the November 4, 2026 trade deadline approaches.
