Bulls Injury Report: Depleted Backcourt vs. Spurs

Originally posted on On Tap Sports Net | By Derek Briscoe | Last updated Dec 5, 2024 12:34 PM ET

Another day sees another name added to the Chicago Bulls' injury report. The Bulls are in danger of being without their starting backcourt Thursday against the San Antonio Spurs.

Coming off his best game in a Bulls uniform during Monday’s beatdown of the Brooklyn Nets, Josh Giddey is questionable against San Antonio due to a right ankle sprain.

Coby White is out Thursday, marking his second straight absence due to a left ankle sprain. Lonzo Ball is still not cleared to play in back-to-back games and is out Thursday due to left knee injury management. Ball is expected to play Friday against the Indiana Pacers.

Lastly, Patrick Williams remains out with left foot injury management. Williams has begun individual workouts and could potentially return next week.

Patrick Williams worked out individually, didn’t practice. Won’t play in B2B. His window for return opens next week, per Donovan.

The Spurs' injury report includes two names. Tre Jones (left shoulder sprain) and sophomore sensation Victor Wembanyama (bilateral lower back soreness) are out against Chicago.

The Bulls look to build momentum and pick up a win over the Spurs to kick off a back-to-back. Thursday’s tip-off is at 7 p.m. CT and the game will air on Chicago Sports Network (CHSN).
