Hinrich (knee) came off the bench again Thursday in a win over the Heat, but was held to just two points (1-2 FG) and one assist in 13 minutes.
Hinrich has now appeared in two straight games after missing two games in the beginning of April. He holds virtually no fantasy value, having not scored double digit points in a game since Jan. 10 and coming off a month in March when he averaged just 4.2 points per game while shooting 37.3 percent from the floor.
Thu Apr 9 201518:51Hinrich (knee) will take floor Thursday in Miami
Hinrich (knee) will take the floor Thursday in Miami, the Chicago Tribune reports.
Hinrich's hyperextended left knee resulted in back-to-back absences, but in his return Wednesday, he managed to put up five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two assists, and one rebound in 15 minutes. Because Derrick Rose (knee) will be capped at 20 minutes and Aaron Brooks is healthy, Hinrich can't expect to garner much, if any, more work than he received Wednesday.

Hinrich (knee) is officially listed as probable for Thursday's game against Miami, KC Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Hinrich is still battling the nagging knee issue that caused him to be listed as a game-time call Wednesday. He played 15 minutes off the bench in the loss to Orlando, finishing with five points on 2-of-4 shooting (1-3 3Pt). With Derrick Rose (knee) also probable to play, Hinrich should continue to come off the bench in a reduced role so long as Rose is healthy.

Hinrich (knee) scored five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt) to go along with one rebound and two assists in 15 minutes Wednesday against the Magic.
With both Hinrich and Derrick Rose (knee) returning Wednesday, the Bulls finally had their full complement of backcourt players. While Hinrich is an important part of the Bulls bench, he doesn't produce enough statistically to warrant much fantasy consideration.
Wed Apr 8 201517:58Hinrich (knee) will play Wednesday against Magic
Hinrich (knee) will play Wednesday against the Magic, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Hinrich missed a pair of games with a hyperextended left knee, but he'll be back on the court Wednesday. Hinrich has not been a productive fantasy option this season, and with Derrick Rose (knee) returning, his value is further restricted.

Hinrich (knee) will be a game-time decision for Wednesday's tilt with the Magic, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Hinrich has missed the last two games due to the hyperextended left knee, but after the guard was able to return to practice Monday and take part in Wednesday's shootaround, coach Tom Thibodeau might be willing to roll him in his lineup. The Bulls will also have Derrick Rose (knee) back from a two-month absence Wednesday to play about 20 minutes, making it likely that Hinrich would see a downgrade in playing time even if he's deemed healthy enough to suit up.
Tue Apr 7 201517:04Hinrich (knee) questionable for Wednesday's game in Orlando
Hinrich (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game in Orlando, the Chicago Tribune reports.
After failing to take the court Friday and Sunday due to a hyperextended left knee, Hinrich opened the door for his next appearance by returning to practice Monday. While he's no guarantee to take the court, his workload could be hindered by the possible return of Derrick Rose (knee).
Mon Apr 6 201521:42Hinrich (knee) returned to practice Monday
Hinrich (knee) returned to practice Monday, ESPN Chicago reports.
It's still unclear if Hinrich will return Wednesday against the Magic, but it's encouraging that he was able to practice. Even when he does return, he doesn't warrant much fantasy consideration based on his offensive struggles this season.
Sat Apr 4 201517:08Hinrich (knee) won't play Sunday at Cleveland
Hinrich (knee) won't play Sunday at Cleveland, the Chicago Tribune reports.
Hinrich will miss his second game in a row due to a hyperextended left knee. Because Derrick Rose (knee) isn't making his return Sunday either, Aaron Brooks will direct the Bulls' offense in the interim.

Hinrich (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's matchup with Detroit, Nick Friedell of ESPN Chicago reports.

After a collision with the Bucks' Zaza Pachulia, Hinrich limped to the locker room favoring his left leg, which was ultimately determined to be a knee concern.

Hinrich did not score (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), but recorded three assists in 21 minutes Saturday against the Knicks.
Hinrich hasn't scored in double-figures in over two months despite the Bulls dealing with injuries in their backcourt. He is likely to still play around 20 minutes a game, but doesn't carry much fantasy value at this time.

Hinrich scored seven points (3-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt) to go with four assists and two rebounds in 23 minutes off the bench against the Thunder on Thursday.
Hinrich came off the bench to split time with Aaron Brooks, but both saw decreased minutes as coach Tom Thibodeau rode the hot hand of E'Twaun Moore on Thursday. With Brooks and Moore in the picture, Hinrich's fantasy value is limited, even with Derrick Rose (knee) and Jimmy Butler (elbow) out for the foreseeable future.

Hinrich (illness) scored eight points (4-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt) to go along with one rebound, two assists and one block in 20 minutes Wednesday against the Hornets.
Hinrich came off the bench Wednesday as Aaron Brooks started in place or Derrick Rose (knee). He and Brooks could be in and out of the starting lineup and the Bulls could bring in some help to try to fill in for Rose, but Hinrich will only have limited value at best even if he does start.

Hinrich (illness) will return to the lineup Wednesday against the Hornets, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Hinrich has missed the last two games, but he put in a full practice Tuesday and will be available against Charlotte. With Derrick Rose (knee) out for the foreseeable future, Hinrich should pick up some extra minutes, and he could enter the starting lineup in place of Rose. Unless Chicago makes a move to bring in another point guard, Hinrich and Aaron Brooks will split the duties.
