Lauri Markkanen among four Chicago Bulls players out vs. Washington Wizards due to safety protocol

WASHINGTON -- The Chicago Bulls, playing without four players who were in the NBA health and safety protocol, beat the winless Washington Wizards 133-130 on Thursday.

The Bulls played without forwards Lauri Markkanen and Chandler Hutchison and guards Ryan Arcidiacono and Tomas Satoransky.

Markkanen, the team's second-leading scorer and top rebounder, was already questionable for the game with a left calf injury.

Donovan confirmed after the game that the four players will not travel to Milwaukee with the team and will miss Friday's game against the Bucks.
