Bulls Injury Report: Healthy for Home Opener vs. Thunder

After securing their first victory of the season Friday against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Chicago Bulls return home Saturday to complete the tail end of their back-to-back against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Surprisingly, no Bulls players have needed to exit early due to injury to date.

Lonzo Ball’s absence from Friday’s game was expected as part of his load management plan, and he’s available Saturday against the Thunder. Dalen Terry (left patella tendon tendonitis) is also available.

Conversely, the Thunder’s injury report includes four names. Isaiah Hartenstein (left hand fracture), Nikola Topic (left knee surgery), Jaylin Williams (right hamstring strain), and Kenrich Williams (right knee surgery) are out.

That leaves Chet Holmgren as Oklahoma City’s only true big, so it’ll be interesting to see if Nikola Vucevic can continue his strong start to the season.

The United Center should be abuzz for the Bulls’ home opener. Tip-off is at 7 p.m. CT and the game will air on Chicago Sports Network (CHSN).
