After earning their first win of the season against the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday, the Chicago Bulls are back at home Saturday for the second game of their back-to-back against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Surprisingly, no Bulls players have had to leave a game early due to injury so far.
Lonzo Ball was expected to sit out Friday’s game as part of his load management but will be available for Saturday’s match against the Thunder. Dalen Terry, who has been dealing with left patella tendonitis, is also set to play.
On the other hand, the Thunder’snrich Williams.injury report lists four players: Isaiah Hartenstein (left hand fracture), Nikola Topic (left knee surgery), Jaylin Williams (right hamstring strain), and Kenrich Williams (right knee surgery), all of whom will be out. This leaves Chet Holmgren as Oklahoma City’s only true big man, making it interesting to see if Nikola Vucevic can maintain his strong performance early in the season. The United Center is expected to have a lively atmosphere for the Bulls’ home opener, with tip-off at 7 p.m. CT, and the game will be broadcast on Chicago Sports Network (CHSN).
