Bulls' Lauri Markkanen (pelvis) to miss 4-6 weeks
Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen is expected to miss over a month with a pelvis injury, the team announced Friday.
What It Means:
Markkanen underwent an MRI of his right hospital on Thursday, and the test revealed "an early stress reaction of his right pelvis." Per the Bulls, he'll be rested for a bit before "a full return anticipated in 4-6 weeks." In his absence, expect Thaddeus Young to reenter the starting lineup, at least initially.
In 46 games this season, Markkanen has averaged 15.0 points. 6.5 rebounds and 27.5 FanDuel points.
