The Bulls signed White to a three-year contract Friday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
White has spent the last four seasons in Chicago after being selected by the franchise with the seventh pick in the 2019 NBA Draft. His production dipped in 2022-23, averaging 9.7 points, 2.9 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 23.4 minutes across 74 games. However, his efficiency did improve, as White shot a career-high 44.3 percent from the field.

Bulls' Coby White: In starting lineup
Rotowire
White is set to start at shooting guard in Friday's game in Dallas.

Bulls' Coby White: Produces off the bench again
Rotowire
White finished Sunday's 128-107 victory over Memphis with 19 points (8-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal in 31 minutes.
White has scored in double figures in nine of the last 11 games. In the last three weeks, he has been a top-75 player in nine-category leagues. It has not simply been all scoring, as he has been averaging 4.9 assists while shooting 47.5 percent from three-point range. With the Bulls fighting for positioning in the Eastern Conference Play-In Tournament, he should continue to provide fantasy value to close out the season.

Bulls' Coby White: Stands out off bench Wednesday
Rotowire
White logged 17 points (6-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 121-110 loss to the Lakers.
White logged the most minutes of any Chicago reserve in the loss, and he made the most of the opportunity with 17 points -- the third-highest total on the team. The point guard added nine dimes to finish one assist short of his first double-double since December of 2020. White has been quite good for Chicago of late, averaging 14.9 points, 2.6 triples and 5.7 assists over his past seven games. He's playing enough minutes to justify a pickup for fantasy managers in need of three-pointers and dimes.

Bulls' Coby White: Modest production in loss
Rotowire
White totaled seven points (3-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five assists and one rebound in 28 minutes during Monday's 124-112 loss to the Clippers.
With Alex Caruso (foot) out, White played starter-level minutes but failed to make a significant impact. Coming into the contest, the sharpshooter had been on a roll, posting 14.3 points, 4.7 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 28.6 minutes over his previous seven appearances, so Monday's outing was a disappointment.

Bulls' Coby White: Nears double-double
Rotowire
White recorded 19 points (7-9 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 32 minutes during Friday's 124-96 win over Portland.
Although White came off the bench, he enjoyed a larger workload due to the blowout win, notching a team-high 32 minutes. The score-first guard found success as a facilitator, finishing with his best assist total of the season. White has come into his own as of late, averaging 14.5 points, 4.5 assists and 3.3 steals over 28.9 minutes per game in his last six appearances.

Bulls' Coby White: Leads team with 19 points
Rotowire
White logged 19 points (8-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to Philadelphia.
White led the way for the Bulls in the scoring column, with the early exit of DeMar DeRozan (quadriceps) and the blowout nature of the contest affording him some extended run on the second unit. DeRozan and Alex Caruso (foot) could both be sidelined for the Bulls' next game Friday in Portland, but even if that's the case, White may still struggle to reach 30 minutes if that contest is more competitive than Wednesday's.

Bulls' Coby White: Scores 18 points off bench
Rotowire
White notched 18 points (7-12 FG, 4-8 3Pt), one rebound, six assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Saturday's 113-99 victory over the Heat.
White scored his most points since Feb. 15 and fell one assist shy of tying his season-high mark. The UNC product has always been a streaky scorer, but when he's on, he's certainly capable of posting quality stat lines. However, across his last eight appearances, White has averaged just 8.9 points, 3.8 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 23.5 minutes, so White's production Saturday may likely be an outlier.

Bulls' Coby White: Steps up off bench
Rotowire
White provided 12 points (4-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists and two steals across 28 minutes in Wednesday's 117-114 loss to the Kings.
White was one of the main beneficiaries of Alex Caruso (illness) taking the night off, as the North Carolina product remained in his bench role but still picked up his most minutes since the Bulls' final game of the first half Feb. 16. Even after his solid showing Wednesday, White has turned in meager averages of 8.2 points, 3.8 assists, 2.6 rebounds, 1.7 three-pointers and 0.8 steals in 23.1 minutes over nine appearances since the All-Star break. White is likely to see his minutes dip back into the teens or lower 20s if Caruso is back in action Friday versus the Timberwolves.

Bulls' Coby White: Struggles with shot
Rotowire
White closed with seven points (3-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 117-96 victory over the Nuggets.
White has failed to score in double figures in three straight games and is shooting just 35 percent from the field and 27.3 percent from deep during this stretch. He's always been a streaky shooter, but his opportunities continue to dwindle with recently-acquired Patrick Beverley now operating as the starting point guard.

Bulls' Coby White: Moves back to bench
Rotowire
White isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's matchup with Brooklyn.
Patrick Beverley and Alex Caruso will replace Ayo Dosunmu and White in the starting five Friday. The 22-year-old guard recorded eight points, five rebounds and three assists in 38 minutes during his first and only start of the season against Milwaukee on Feb. 16 -- Chicago's final game before the All-Star break.

Bulls' Coby White: Making first start of season
Rotowire
White will enter the first unit for Thursday's game against the Bucks.
White will make his first start of the 2022-23 campaign with DeMar DeRozan (hip) and Alex Caruso (foot) sidelined. He is coming off season highs in minutes (33) and points (25) on 75 percent shooting in his previous contest. Although White may not be able to replicate that scoring output Thursday, he remains a high-upside play considering his streaky shooting.

Bulls' Coby White: Erupts for season-high 25 points
Rotowire
White produced 25 points (9-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 117-113 loss to the Pacers.
With DeMar DeRozan (hip) taking the night off, White helped fill the scoring void with a new season-high point total. DeRozan may miss the second leg of the back-to-back set Thursday against the Bucks, and while White would benefit from some extra minutes sand touches in such a scenario, he can't be relied upon to hit 75 percent of his field-goal tries and 62.5 percent of his three-point attempts like he did Wednesday. White had shot 41.9 percent and 29 percent, respectively, over his prior seven games in February.

Bulls' Coby White: Scores 12 points in 23 minutes
Rotowire
White closed with 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 23 minutes during Monday's 100-91 loss to Orlando.
White was one of four Bulls players to score in double digits, the fifth time he has done so in his past seven games. DeMar DeRozan continues to battle an ongoing hip injury, something that caused him to miss some time Monday. Should it prevent him from playing Wednesday against the Pacers, White could be someone to consider for streaming purposes should you need points and triples.

Bulls' Coby White: Impresses off bench in win
Rotowire
White ended Thursday's 114-98 win over the Hornets with 20 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 27 minutes.
White delivered one of his best scoring performances of the season, and he continues to show value as a legit three-point threat. The former UNC star has made two or more threes in nine of his last 10 games and is averaging 10.9 points per game while shooting 43.1 percent from deep in that span.
