Not listed on injury report
Smith (calf) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Grizzlies.
Analyse
Smith skipped Friday's loss to the Clippers, with that game falling as the second in a back-to-back set, but he'll be back in action with his usual workload Monday evening. With Smith back in the mix, Nick Richards will likely return to the second unit, where his minutes will dip.
14 maart 2026
Out Friday
Smith (calf) won't play Friday versus the Clippers, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Analyse
Smith will rest on the second night of a back-to-back set, but he will likely return for Monday's matchup with Memphis. Guerschon Yabusele and Nick Richards will soak up the center minutes with Smith unavailable.
13 maart 2026
Doubtful for Friday
Smith (calf) is doubtful to play Friday versus the Clippers.
Analyse
It looks like Smith will receive a rest day during the second leg of this back-to-back set, and with Guerschon Yabusele (foot) questionable, it could be Nick Richards starting at center Friday evening. Check back for official word on Smith's availability closer to tipoff.
13 maart 2026
Good to go Thursday
Smith (calf) has been cleared to play Thursday against the Lakers, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Analyse
Smith was tagged as questionable due to a calf issue, but he'll be ready to run the floor Thursday. However, coach Billy Donovan said in his pre-game presser that Smith would likely be held out for the second half of Chicago's back-to-back Friday against the Clippers, per Johnson.
12 maart 2026
Downgraded to questionable
Smith (calf) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Lakers.
Analyse
Smith was previously listed as doubtful, so the downgrade is a concern for fantasy managers. If Smith is unable to give it a go, Nick Richards will likely have a higher floor in fantasy hoops.
11 maart 2026
Probable for Thursday
Smith (calf) is probable for Thursday's game against the Lakers.
Analyse
Smith is on track to play Thursday, and managers can expect to get official confirmation on his status closer to tipoff. Thursday's match will be the first of a back-to-back set, though, so there's a chance Smith could get hit with a maintenance day Friday.

Delivers double-double Tuesday
Smith accumulated 12 points (3-13 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one block over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 130-124 overtime win over the Warriors.
Analyse
Josh Giddey's triple-double and Matas Buzelis' first 40-point performance of his career overshadowed what other Chicago players did, and that includes Smith's solid all-around stat line. The shooting woes are worrisome, but fantasy managers won't worry too much about that as long as he continues to produce. Smith has scored in double digits in all but two of his last 17 appearances, a stretch in which he's averaging 12.4 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.4 steals-plus-blocks per game.
11 maart 2026
Starting Tuesday
Smith will start Tuesday's game against the Warriors.
Analyse
Smith is available to play in a second consecutive contest following a five-game absence due to a left calf strain, and he'll return to the starting five after coming off the bench in Sunday's loss to Sacramento. He logged 20 minutes against the Kings, though it's unclear if he'll remain on a minutes restriction Tuesday.
11 maart 2026
Will suit up Tuesday
Smith (calf) is available for Tuesday's game against the Warriors.
Analyse
Smith will shed his probable tag and suit up for a second consecutive contest following a five-game absence due to a left calf strain. The big man logged 20 minutes off the bench during his return in Sunday's loss to Sacramento, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction Tuesday.
10 maart 2026
Listed probable for Tuesday
Smith is probable for Tuesday's game against Golden State due to a left calf strain.
Analyse
This appears to be a precautionary listing for Smith, who made his first appearance since Feb. 22 against the Kings on Sunday after battling the calf injury. Expect the Maryland product to shed the probable tag closer to tipoff, assuming he doesn't experience any kind of setback.
