Bulls' Nikola Mirotic plays 22 minutes in return to the lineup on Tuesday
Chicago Bulls forward Nikola Mirotic (illness) made his return to the lineup on Tuesday, racking up 6 points, 5 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block in 22 minutes of action as the Bulls fell 99-98 to the Dallas Mavericks.
That's right in line with the 23.3 minutes per game he's averaging on the season. He has been pretty disappointing on that workload, averaging a career-low 9.4 points to go with 4.7 rebounds per game.
Mirotic's 9.3 nERD ranked third among Bulls players on Tuesday, per numberFire Live, though his -0.3 nERD ranks a shaky 230th in the NBA this season.
