Denzel Valentine joins the Bulls' permanent inactive list after the team announced he'll have an arthroscopic debridement on his left knee after experiencing swelling, ending his promising second season with five games remaining.
Monday afternoon, the Bulls announced Zach LaVine and Kris Dunn will miss the rest of the year with their recovery from their respective injuries. Valentine will undergo the procedure Wednesday, his third procedure in his career. He underwent surgery in high school and in college at Michigan State, his last in December 2015.
A source close to him called it "a minor clean-up" as opposed to something that could affect him long-term.
