Coby White

White parlayed a strong end to his rookie campaign into a near-full-time starting role with the Bulls last season. He saw 31.2 minutes per game and averaged 15.1 points, 4.8 assists and 4.1 rebounds. White had some big games as well, with three 30-point games and three performances with at least 10 assists. The end result was White ranking 121st in fantasy on a per-game basis -- not bad, but also not quite up to the expectations some had for him. White may have a difficult time building on that in 2021-22. During the offseason, the Bulls brought in Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso, not to mention DeMar DeRozan. Plus, Zach LaVine is still around and will take up plenty of usage. There's now a wealth of guard depth in Chicago, and it's not clear where White fits in. He should be an everyday player, but it's highly unlikely he starts, and it seems like the best he could hope for is sixth-man minutes. At 21 years old, White is still a strong dynasty/keeper option, but his value in redraft leagues this season is relatively low. He's probably best suited for deep leagues in which backup guards can still hold a roster spot.

White's first season in the league saw him show flashes of offensive excellence, as he posted a career high of 35 points in late February and was regularly recording 20-point outings prior to the suspension of play in March. The now 20-year-old guard was eventually inserted into the starting lineup, and he will likely remain there to start 2020-21 under new coach Billy Donovan. Though he finished the season strong and made the All-Rookie Second Team, it wasn't all positive for White during his rookie campaign. As a point guard, he averaged just 2.7 assists per game and shot a horrific 39.4 percent from the field. He showed no hesitation in firing threes with 5.8 attempts per game on an average 35.4 percent shooting. White didn't get to the line much either at just 2.0 attempts per game, further hampering his efficiency levels. The 20-year-old has plenty of time to grow into a more well-rounded player, but he'll need to grow if he's going to last as a starting NBA point guard. With talented offensive players like Zach LaVine and Lauri Markkanen surrounding him, White's value will rise if he gets his teammates involved a bit more than he did as a rookie.

The Bulls' front office has been surprisingly vocal in their dismissal of Kris Dunn as the team's future at point guard, so White will attempt to make more of an impact as a prospect. The UNC product was named to the 2018-19 All-ACC team, and he averaged 18.1 points, 4.2 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals per contest in conference play. White's biggest strengths are his quickness and overall scoring ability. He showed off both at summer league, averaging 15.0 points in five games, though his 33.7 percent mark from the field and 3-of-30 clip from beyond the arc left a lot to be desired. It seems like Tomas Satoransky will be Chicago's opening night starter at point guard, but White should be firmly in line for minutes as the first point guard off the bench. It's possible his role expands if he can make an impact early on, but fantasy owners shouldn't expect big minutes out of White as a rookie.
