Chicago Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg said that he doesn't know if forward Nikola Mirotic will travel as the team embarks on a four-game road trip starting on Sunday.
Mirotic attended practice on Monday but he's yet to have contact with teammate Bobby Portis. Reportedly, the 26-year-old has told the team that they have to choose between him or Portis. That could mean a trade is coming, however, Mirotic isn't eligibile to be traded until January 15th. With the chance he returns in the next two weeks, his role is completely uncertain at this time.
numberFire's models project Mirotic to average 15.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.1 threes over 25.6 minutes per game the rest of the season.
