The Chicago Bulls will be missing Zach LaVine during tonight’s game against the San Antonio Spurs. The All-Star is experiencing swelling and discomfort in his left knee, the same one that caused LaVine to miss five games in January.

Billy Donovan said LaVine is experiencing swelling and discomfort in his left knee, which also has been reported. It comes and goes. But Donovan also pointed to LaVine’s clean MRI from last month as a positive sign. https://t.co/jddwkQxZtj

It will be the second straight game the Bulls will have to play without LaVine, who has missed four of the last seven games.

The good news is Javonte Green will return to the lineup after sitting out Saturday vs. the Thunder. Green has been excellent this season, averaging a career-high 7.5 points per game along with being a stalwart defensively.
