Chicago Bulls valuable starter has concerning ankle injury

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


NBA: Chicago Bulls at Portland Trail Blazers Coby White

The Chicago Bulls are slowly going downhill with the season not going as fans would’ve hoped it would. The Bulls currently have a poor record of 18-25 which has them pegged at 10th in the Eastern Conference. The Bull’s most recent loss came to the Portland Trailblazers on Sunday night, a team that on paper they should’ve beaten.

Having a record of 3-7 in their last ten games, the Bulls kept those losing ways going in their recent 113-102 loss to the Trailblazers on Sunday. In the game the Bulls saw one of the key pieces go down with what could be a concerning injury.

Chicago Bulls point guard possibly injured?

During the Bulls’ eleven-point loss, one of their key starters point guard Coby White appeared to have an ankle injury after a drive to the basket that left him shaken. Per K.C. Johnson Bulls insider for CHSN he tweeted that:

“Coby White came up a little gimpy late after scoring on a drive and isn’t currently in closing lineup,.”

Johnson also added that head coach Billy Donovan added an update on why White missed the closing minutes of the game and an update on White’s status:

“Donovan said he didn’t like way White was moving for why he didn’t close with him. White, who has been battling a sore ankle for awhile, said he’ll get treatment and see how he feels Monday.”

Having White miss some time will certainly not help the Bulls get out of this skid they’re on anytime soon. For the season White has played in 40 games and is averaging 18.2 points (47th), 3.4 rebounds (150+), 4.7 assists (45th), and is shooting 43.7% from the field and 36.4% from three.

In his sixth year in the league, White has been a solid player for the Bulls having career averages of 14.5 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.8 assists. White has been pretty durable so far in his career with not missing under 60 games in six seasons since coming into the NBA.

How would Whites injury affect the Bulls?

Depending on the level of soreness of the ankle and whether it’s a sprain or not will determine how much time White could miss.

The Bulls need White in their lineup and have his production if they’re to have a chance to turn this season around. Especially if they are to trade away key offensive threats in Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic at next month’s February 6th trade deadline.

An update on Whites’s progress should be released today so we should know soon what his status will be for the Bull’s next game which is today against the LA Clippers.
