Mike Dunleavy’s Back Rehab Has Setback; Expected to Miss 4-6 More Weeks

The Chicago Bulls are going to have to continue to ride things out with their youth in one of the wing positions for the next 4-6 weeks of action.

On late Thursday night, Yahoo Sports NBA columnist Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Dunleavy met with specialists about his back recovery and it was determined that Dunleavy suffered a setback and would need at least another month of rehab.

From Wojnarowski on Dunleavy:

Dunleavy, who has yet to play this season, underwent lower back microdiscectomy surgery 2½ months ago and suffered a recent setback in his push to return to the Bulls’ lineup.
