Bulls' Dwyane Wade (fractured elbow) done for year

Chicago Bulls guard Dwyane Wade has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a fractured right elbow.

What It Means:

Wade suffered a "sprain and a small fracture" in his right elbow, an MRI confirmed. He's been ruled out for the remainder of the regular season, but there's no word on what Wade's status will be for the postseason if the Bulls are able to make it. Look for Jimmy Butler to be extremely busy on offense while Rajon Rondo also benefits. Digging a little deeper, Denzel Valentine could be someone worth taking a flier on. He's exceeded 25 minutes of playing time in each of the last two contests.

Valentine is averaging 9.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 2.6 3-pointers per contest over the last five games. His -2.2 nERD for the season is tied for third-worst on the Bulls.
