Chicago Bulls forward/center Andre Drummond (shoulder) said he's "probably going to play" on Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans.
"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.
