Bulls to discuss if Zach LaVine can play back-to-backs
According to the Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson, Chicago Bulls Vice President John Paxson said the team will discuss whether guard Zach LaVine will play back-to-backs going forward.
What It Means:
LaVine hasn't played in back-to-backs yet, as he continues to be monitored following ACL surgery. Chicago is understandably being cautious with their young budding star, but his play may force their hand. LaVine's looked really comfortable over his last five games and, if cleared, would keep Justin Holiday and Denzel Valentine from big minutes from game-to-game.
Averaging 26.2 FanDuel points per game, LaVine is projected for 28 FD points in Thursday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers.
