Bulls' Zach LaVine, Nikola Vucevic headline long injury report vs. Hornets
12/13/2024 02:05 PM
The Chicago Bulls (10-15) host the Charlotte Hornets (7-17) Friday night in what should be at least a two-possession win on paper. However, Chicago’s injuries open the door for an upset loss.
While Zach Lavine (back) is probable, Nikola Vucevic (illness), Josh Giddey (back), and Patrick Williams (foot) are all questionable, via the NBA injury report.
The Hornets, though, aren’t any better off, as superstar LaMelo Ball (calf) is out while Miles Bridges (knee) is questionable.
The Bulls need Lavine and Vucevic back at full-strength as soon as possible, as they’re first and second on the squad in scoring, respectively. Lavine leads with 22.1 points-per-game on 50.6% shooting, while Vucevic averages 21 points on a 58.7% clip. The latter veteran also tops the team with 9.8 rebounds and 0.8 blocks per contest.
That’s not to mention Giddey, who’s been Chicago’s top facilitator with 6.9 assists per game.
