Positive updates on the Chicago Bulls have been few and far between lately. After a surprising 5–0 start, a 4–12 slump has erased their early momentum, and to make matters worse, the injury bug has bitten—and it stings.
After missing seven players in a 10-point loss to the rebuilding Brooklyn Nets, the Bulls are set to be shorthanded again against the similarly downtrodden Indiana Pacers. Chicago officially lists only two players as out—Noa Essengue and Kevin Huerter—but three more as doubtful and another three as questionable.
