Chicago’s injury report is improving ahead of the Hornets game, but 2 players have already been ruled out
The Chicago Bulls there’s a lot going on, but not in a good way. On the other hand, they are on a seven-game losing streak and are affected by injuries.
However, Taurus they got a ray of light ahead of their showdown against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday, according to KC Johnson of the Chicago Sports Network. It was announced on Thursday Aio Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter will not travel, while Isaac Okoro and Jalen Smith practiced.
After that, the medical team will determine if both will play. If they do, then Okoro and Smith will be under minimal restrictions.
The Bulls are currently 9-14 and in 11th place in the Eastern Conference. A away from their 6-1 start a year that excited everyone.
Both Dosunmu and Huerter have dealt with injuries recently. Dosunmu has been battling a thumb injury. Meanwhile, Huerter suffered an adductor/tendon strain in a recent game against the Orlando Magic.
Also, Okoro suffered left lumbar radiculopathy and Smith struggled with a left hamstring strain. Even with the absence of the body, it seems like the tide is turning when it comes to the health and well-being of the Bulls.
The impact of the injuries on the Bulls is obvious.
Given the recurring theme of injuries, the Bulls lack depth and consistency. As a result, the lineups had to be changed regularly, and the bench was almost absent.
Also, the defense, which has not been the Bulls’ strongest point, has been hurt a lot, especially with the absence of Okoro and Tre Jones at times.
Additionally, Chicago was in position to invite the Windy City Bulls from the G League. All in an effort to fill those gaps for now.
Luckily for Chicago, things are starting to pick up.
