The Chicago Bulls will be without Zach LaVine on Monday when they visit the Milwaukee Bucks at the Fiserv Forum.
The streaking Bulls have won four straight games, and they will now look to make it five in a row against Milwaukee even without one of their best players on the floor.
Unfortunately for Chicago, it’s not just LaVine who could be out of action on Monday.
Zach LaVine Headlines Bulls’ Injury Report Vs. Milwaukee Bucks
LaVine has missed Chicago’s last four games and he is now expected to miss more time. The two-time All-Star is dealing with a right foot injury which will reportedly keep him out for up to a month.
That’s not all she wrote for the Bulls, though.
According to the official injury report, combo guard Alex Caruso, who has been rumored to be a potential trade candidate for the Bucks, could also be out of commission. This is after the 29-year-old was listed as questionable to play against Milwaukee due to a sprained left ankle.
Bulls reporter Will Gotlieb noted that Caruso did not practice on Sunday and that coach Billy Donovan “hopes to have him back at some point this week.”
Patrick Williams has also popped up on the injury report with a sore left ankle. The good news is that he is probable to play.
Without LaVine and potentially Caruso in the mix, it’s going to be DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic who are going to have to do most of the heavy lifting for Chicago. Both stars have had strong performances throughout the Bulls’ recent streak, and they will be hoping to keep their foot on the gas against Giannis Antetokounmpo and Co.
