Andre Drummond (shoulder) planning to play Wednesday for Bulls
Chicago Bulls forward/center Andre Drummond (shoulder) said he's "probably going to play" on Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans.
What It Means:
"Definitely excited about it," Drummond said on his Twitch stream. He remains listed as questionable, but it sounds like Drummond is in line to return from a six-game absence. Derrick Jones Jr., Javonte Green, and Patrick Williams could lose a few minutes with Drummond back in the rotation.
Drummond is planning to return against a Pelicans team that is allowing the sixth-most FanDuel points per game to the center position this season. numberFire's models project Drummond for 15.8 minutes and 20.7 FanDuel points on Tuesday, and he has a $4,500 salary on the Main slate. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Bulls’ implied total (115.75) is No. 7 out of 26 teams today.
