Coby White (back) misses Bulls' practice Thursday

Chicago Bulls point guard Coby White was unable to participate on Thursday due to a back injury.

What It Means:

White tweaked his back prior to practice. Consider him questionable for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. Tomas Satoransky and Ryan Arcidiacono figure to gain the most if White is forced to join Kris Dunn (knee) on the Bulls' sidelines. The rookie has scored 30-plus off the bench in three straight games, becoming the first first-year player in league history to do so. He has shot 55.7 percent from the field and 58.1 percent on threes during that stretch.

White is averaging 43.9 FanDuel points over the last three outings. numberFire's models project him for 11.4 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.3 3-pointers over the remainder of the season.
