Julian Phillips Overcomes Illness, Set for First Start vs. Nets

Julian Phillips (illness) has been cleared to play and will make his first start of the season for the Chicago Bulls in Wednesday's game against the Nets. His promotion to the starting lineup comes as Kevin Huerter (hamstring) and Isaac Okoro (back) are both unavailable. While Phillips has not had a significant impact this season, his starting role against the defensively-challenged Nets could make him a viable option in daily fantasy leagues.
