Zach LaVine provides injury update after Chicago Bulls vs. Orlando Magic

Zach LaVine provides injury update after Chicago Bulls vs. Orlando Magic

The Chicago Bulls and the Orlando Magic met tonight in Chicago in a game that saw the Bulls break a 20-point deficit and climb over a .500 record for the first time in almost two years. This was also the first time the team had returned from consecutive games trailing by 20 points since 2001.

Earlier today it was announced that the Bulls would be without Lonzo Ball for at least ten days due to a wrist injury. Unfortunately for Bulls fans, it now appears that star guard Zach LaVine may join Ball on the injured list.

During his post-game media session, LaVine shared an update on the status of his injured shoulder.

Via KC Johnson of Chicago Sports Network: “Zach LaVine said he will know more on Thursday and hopes to play in Brooklyn on Friday because ‘I’m trying to play everything.’ LaVine said he suffered a “subluxation” in the left shoulder, which is a partial dislocation of a joint likely accompanied by a shoulder sprain.

In LaVine’s first four games this season, he averaged 26.0 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game on 55.2/45.7/82.4 shooting splits. The Bulls will find it difficult to replace LaVine’s production and hope the guard won’t be sidelined for long.

The Bulls travel to Brooklyn on Friday, November 1 to take on the Nets at 7:30 PM EST.
