Gibson is dealing with right patella tendinitis, although he's considered probable to play against the Suns on Friday, the Chicago Tribune reports.

This is a new injury for Gibson that won't likely pose problems for his long-term viability. The 29-year-old is spending 27.3 minutes on the court over his last four contests.

Gibson had 11 points (2-7 FG, 5-8 FT) and eight rebounds in 26 minutes off the bench Sunday against the Heat.

Gibson has resumed his role coming off the bench now that Noah is back from injury, but Noah is still a bit hampered. As a result, Gibson should continue to put up solid numbers moving forward.

Gibson provided 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-5 FT), 10 rebounds, and five blocks in 38 minutes in the loss at Cleveland on Monday.

Gibson has stepped into the starting lineup for Joakim Noah (ankle). In the last three games, he has averaged 10.7 points and 8.0 rebounds, so he isn't breaking the bank. Noah should be back soon, so Gibson's value will likely dip.

Gibson started in place of Joakim Noah (ankle) against the Celtics Friday. He scored 13 points (5-11 FG, 3-3 FT) and added eight rebounds and two assists in 39 minutes.

As has happened many times over the past several seasons, whenever Noah misses time, Gibson steps into the starting lineup. As per the norm, in the larger starting role, Gibson's production and fantasy value increased instantly. Gibson rarely blows anyone away with these fill-in performances, but they are usually pretty reliable and consistent. As long as Noah is out, Gibson has start-worthy value in most formats.

Gibson received extra playing time after Joakim Noah (ankle) went out and provided 12 points (6-9 FG) and six rebounds in 32 minutes in the loss to the Wizards on Wednesday.

Gibson has been playing limited minutes since returning from an ankle injury. In his last five games, he has offered 8.8 points and 5.4 rebounds. If Noah's injury proves serious, Gibson could get a nice bump in minutes and be a decent add.

The Bulls have much more depth this year than they have had in recent years, but Gibson remains a key part of their team. He is averaging 10.6 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.0 blocks over his last five games and remains a decent fantasy option despite not being a starter.

Gibson (ankle) is considered probable to play Wednesday, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Gibson (ankle) is considered probable for Saturday's game against the Celtics.

Gibson has been battling through an ankle injury for more than two weeks but hasn't missed a game due to the injury since Dec. 19. He's averaged just over 20 minutes in seven games since that absence and figures to be available for a similar workload against Boston.

Gibson (ankle) scored 10 points (5-10 FG) to go along with seven rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks in 18 minutes Monday against the Raptors.

Gibson looked sharp in his return and should continue to be a valuable fantasy asset when healthy. He has had a lot of ankle problems of late though, so there is a possibility he could miss more time if the injury flares up again.

Gibson (ankle) will play Monday against the Raptors, the Chicago Tribune reports.

Gibson was listed as probable after getting in a full practice session Sunday, and now has been confirmed as available Monday. If either Joakim Noah (ankle) or Pau Gasol (chest) are unavailable for the Bulls on Monday, he could see a boost in minutes in his return.

There's still no word on if Gibson will play Monday against the Raptors, although his participation in Sunday's practice seems to hint that he'll be available.

This is the first we're hearing of Gibson's injury, which he likely suffered in practice Tuesday or Wednesday. The fact that he's considered questionable suggests it's nothing serious, but his status is something to keep an eye on nonetheless. With Joakim Noah (ankle) likely to return Thursday, Gibson will likely come off the bench, if he plays.

Gibson posted a double-double in 38 minutes Monday against the Hawks as he scored 15 points (7-11 FG, 1-1 FT) to go along with 17 rebounds, one assist and two blocks.

Gibson started again in place of Joakim Noah (ankle) and had another big performance. He will continue to start and see increased fantasy value until Noah returns.

Gibson saw an expanded role with Joakim Noah sitting out of this game. He just missed a double-double with 15 points (5-8 FG, 5-5 FT), nine rebounds, two blocks, one assist, and a steal in 38 minutes.

As long as Noah misses time with an ankle injury Gibson is going to get more minutes and have plenty of chances to pile up rebounds, points and defensive stats. Once he returns his role will diminish some, but he will still have value to hold onto in standard leagues, especially with the Bulls front court being injury prone.
