Javonte Green’s injury creates a snag, but Billy Donovan remains set on shaking up the Chicago Bulls lineup: ‘We’ve got to try to move things around’

CHICAGO — Javonte Green missed a second straight game Wednesday for the Chicago Bulls, but coach Billy Donovan assured Green he will regain his newfound starting job at power forward whenever he is cleared to return to the court.

Green sat out the 115-111 victory against the Washington Wizards with a bone bruise in his right knee that he suffered Friday in his first start of the season against the Golden State Warriors. Donovan started Green over Patrick Williams in that game in a two-part change to the lineup, also inserting veteran Alex Caruso in place of second-year guard Ayo Dosunmu.

Williams started Wednesday and had 11 points and three rebounds in 30 minutes, while DeMar DeRozan, Zach LaVine and Nikola Vučević combined for 77 points.
