Chicago Bulls Injury Report

The latest Chicago Bulls injury report makes for grim reading ahead of Friday’s slate with the Charlotte Hornets, with two more players in doubt.

Chicago Bulls Injury Report vs Charlotte Hornets

The Chicago Bulls enter Friday on a three-game skid and will hope to flip their fortunes around against a Hornets team who have won just once in their last nine.

Unfortunately, preparation has not been kind to the hosts with the Bull injury report getting a little bigger after two more starters were added.

One of the brightest sparks in an otherwise mediocre season, Nikola Vucevic, has been listed as questionable. The former All-Star had largely been written off prior to the start of the NBA season, but at 34 he is putting up exceptional numbers once again with 21 points per-game.

Vucevic could miss Friday’s game through illness, while he could also be joined by Josh Giddey who is dealing with back spasms, and has been listed as questionable.


In better news, the Bulls are expected to lineup with star duo Zach LaVine and Lonzo Ball, who had previously been included in the injury report.

The former, much like his teammate Giddey, had been experiencing lower back spasms but is expected to be fit for Friday, while Ball had been listed for injury management but should return.

There will however be no sibling vs sibling affair with Lonzo’s in-form brother LaMelo Ball out for this game.

The Hornets will also have to contend with a spate of other injuries; Grant Williams and Tre Mann are ruled out alongside LaMelo, while Miles Bridges is questionable with a bone bruise in his right knee.
