Tyler Cook - Questionable for WednesdayCook (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Cavaliers, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
ImpactCook has missed eight consecutive games due to a left ankle sprain, but he's listed as questionable for the first time since initially suffering the injury. Nonetheless, even when he does eventually return, the third-year big man isn't expected to garner a significant enough role to crack fantasy relevancy.

Alex Caruso - Listed as probableCaruso (foot/conditioning) is listed as probable for Wednesday's contest against the Cavaliers, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
ImpactCaruso is expected to be available Wednesday for the first time since Dec. 20. He was initially sidelined due to a sprained left foot, but he was also away from the team for 11 days due to COVID-19 protocols. Johnson reports that coach Billy Donovan strongly implied the veteran would be under a minutes limit when he does return, so he will likely come off the bench until he's back to his usual 25-to-30 minutes per game.

Lonzo Ball - Won't play WednesdayBall (knee) remains out for Wednesday's contest against the Cavaliers, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
ImpactAs expected, Ball will be sidelined for a third straight game while he deals with left knee pain. The Bulls haven't suggested that the injury is a long-term concern, but any length of absence is less than ideal with fellow starter Zach LaVine (knee) also expected to miss an extended period. The good news is that Chicago is expected to get Alex Caruso (conditioning) back Wednesday for the first time since Dec. 20. However, he's going to be under a strict minutes limit for a while, so Coby White and Ayo Dosunmu should continue serving as the Bulls' backcourt starters until one or all three of the aforementioned regulars returns to full strength.
