Lauri Markkanen (elbow) ramping up his workload at practice for the Bulls
Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen has been ramping up his workload at recent practices, Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
What It Means:
“We’ll try to get Lauri in game shape as quickly as possible," coach Fred Hoiberg said. Markkanen has yet to play this season due to an elbow injury, but this news suggests his season-debut could come soon.
Markkanen averaged 15.2 points and 7.5 rebounds per game in 68 starts last season.
