Even Lonzo Ball is listed as available, who has played a total of 29 minutes this season as he works his way back from a two-year absence.<\/p>\n<p>The only player who has seemingly come close to appearing on the injury report for Chicago is Coby White. During his 35-point explosion against the Milwaukee Bucks, Chicago Sports Network\u2019s K.C. Johnson referred to a heating pad the guard would have on his thigh when exiting the game. White confirmed afterward that he has dealt with groin tightness since training camp. The 24-year-old said that, while it will take some time to heal, it hasn\u2019t had a negative impact on his game. The Bulls must agree considering the lack of an injury tag.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<blockquote data-dnt=\"true\" data-width=\"550\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">White on his groin: &#8220;Me keeping it warm is something that helps.

The superstar guard is dealing with right thigh soreness. He\u2019s appeared in each of the team\u2019s three games to begin the year after shoulder surgery ended his 2023-24 campaign early. Morant has averaged 20.7 points and 7.3 assists on 46.3 percent shooting from the field so far. His 8.7 free throw attempts per game also rank top 10 among players who have appeared in three contests thus far.<\/p>\n<p>Role player John Konchar is also questionable heading into tonight with right foot soreness.
