ZACH LAVINE NEWS

Could rest Sunday LaVine is questionable for Sunday's game at Toronto due to left knee injury management.

Impact LaVine has struggled in his past two outings, shooting just 34.5 percent from the field for 13.0 points, and the Bulls may opt to rest him on the front end of a back-to-back set. If he rests, more minutes should be in store for Alex Caruso, Goran Dragic and potentially even DeMar DeRozan, who should see a usage boost at the very least.

Grabs 10 points, six assists in win LaVine racked up 10 points (4-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 106-88 win over Charlotte.

Impact The Bulls forward wasn't very effective from the field on Wednesday night, shooting just 2-of-7 in the first half before going 1-of-6 in the third quarter. He played a key role in getting the offense going early, dishing out three first-quarter assists - two of which went for three to help Chicago take a 27-26 lead to close out the period. It was the first time this season that LaVine started a game on back-to-back nights after coming into the season limited following his knee surgery back in May. His 10 points were a season-low after recording 19 or more points in all previous games coming in.

Will play Wednesday LaVine (knee) will take the floor Wednesday versus the Hornets, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.

Impact An initial report from Shams Charania of The Athletic suggested LaVine wouldn't take the floor Wednesday, but it appears his status has improved to the point where he was listed as questionable and ultimately will take part. It's still worth factoring in that LaVine was initially listed on the injury report, so the staff could take precautions with the star guard.

NOVEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Listed questionable Wednesday LaVine (knee) is listed as questionable on the injury report for Wednesday's game versus the Hornets.

Impact Shams Charania of The Athletic previously reported that LaVine would sit out Wednesday's game after playing Tuesday in Brooklyn, but the questionable designation leaves open the possibility that the Bulls' plans may have changed. Follow-up reports on LaVine's status should come closer to Wednesday's 8 p.m. ET opening tip, but the star guard is expected to miss games sporadically early on this season after he underwent arthroscopic left knee surgery in May.

NOVEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Huge fourth in comeback win LaVine (knee) contributed 29 points (10-21 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and five assists over 37 minutes during Tuesday's 108-99 win over the Nets.

Impact The 27-year-old continues to deal with knee trouble, but he didn't let it slow him down Tuesday as he scored 20 of his points in the fourth quarter to lead the Bulls to a comeback victory. LaVine has dropped at least 20 points in four of the five games he's played to begin the season, but despite Tuesday's performance he'll still be held out of the lineup Wednesday against Charlotte as Chicago prioritizes his long-term health.

Will play Tuesday, sit Wednesday Bulls coach Billy Donovan said that LaVine (knee) will return to the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Nets, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact LaVine is expected to sit out Wednesday's game versus the Hornets, as it is the second night of a back-to-back. The 27-year-old guard is still experiencing discomfort in his left knee, on which he underwent surgery last May. Coby White and Alex Caruso will be viable fantasy options on nights when LaVine sits out for the foreseeable future.

Impact Just as head coach Billy Donovan suggested would be the case shortly before the season, LaVine will be rested for one half of back-to-back sets early on in the campaign after he underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee last May. Thus far, LaVine has suited up in only four of the Bulls' first seven games, but he hasn't faced any major restrictions when active, as he's averaging 22.5 points, 3.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 3.3 three-pointers and 1.0 steals in 32.3 minutes per contest. He'll likely take the court for a nationally-televised matchup with Brooklyn before resting for Wednesday's home tilt with Charlotte.

Questionable Tuesday LaVine is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nets due to left knee injury management.

Impact LaVine has missed three of the Bulls' first seven games of the season due to a knee injury, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available Tuesday. If he's held out against the Nets, it wouldn't be surprising to see him return to action Wednesday against Charlotte for the second half of the back-to-back set.

Puts up 20 points in loss LaVine contributed 20 points (8-19 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and three assists over 34 minutes during Saturday's 114-109 loss to Philadelphia.

Impact LaVine blamed himself for making "a bad read" in a play where he decided to shoot instead of passing it to Nikola Vucevic, who was wide open for a three, and that's perhaps the best example of how he still needs more time on the court to get back to his very best. Still, the star shooting guard is putting up solid numbers and has scored at least 20 points in three of his first four games of the campaign.

Bulls Injury Report: Will Zach LaVine Face 76ers on Saturday? Who will the Chicago Bulls have on board to face the 76ers on Saturday night?

OCTOBER 29, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Officially in Saturday LaVine (knee) will play against the 76ers on Saturday, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.

Impact LaVine was previously listed as probable for the game after sitting out the first leg of the back-to-back Friday for injury management reasons. With Ayo Dosunmu sitting out Saturday with back and neck discomfort, LaVine may be tasked with more ball-handling duties, which would bode well for his fantasy output.

Probable Saturday LaVine (knee) is probable for Saturday's game against the 76ers.

Impact LaVine sat out on the front end of the back-to-back Friday but should be fine Saturday. In his three appearances, he's averaged 23.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.3 steals in 31.7 minutes.
