Injuries have been the go-to asterisk for the Chicago Bulls this season. But with Alex Caruso back from his wrist fracture and Zach LaVine in and out of the lineup with left knee discomfort, this is likely the new norm for the final phase of the season.
It’s not anything like the team pictured at the start of the season, coach Billy Donovan admitted. The Bulls are relying on a rookie point guard and a 6-foot-5 backup power forward to man their starting lineup. LaVine’s unpredictability means the lineup changes nearly every night.
But Donovan said the Bulls need to plan around this current reality for the final month of the regular season.
