Injury Report: Denver Nuggets vs Chicago Bulls

This is a very long injury report for Chicago.

The Denver Nuggets and Chicago Bulls face off in a back-to-back for both teams tonight. Surprisingly, the Denver Nuggets aren't the team with the long injury report.

The Nuggets only have four players listed on their injury report: Christian Braun, Vlatko Cancar, Nikola Jokic, and Jamal Murray. Christian Braun is probable with a right shin strain, Vlatko Cancar is out with left knee surgery, Nikola Jokic is probable due to lower back pain, and Jamal Murray is probable due to a right quadriceps contusion. As always, the most important thing for the Denver Nuggets is that Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and their entire starting lineup are available tonight.

The Chicago Bulls have one of the longest injury reports anyone has seen this season: Lonzo Ball, Alex Caruso, DeMar DeRozan, Ayo Dosunmu, Zach LaVine, Justin Lewis, Adama Sanogo, and Patrick Williams. Lonzo Ball is out due to left knee surgery, Alex Caruso is probable with a right shoulder strain, DeMar DeRozan is questionable with rest, Ayo Dosunmu is out due to upper respiratory illness, Zach LaVine is probable due to a bilateral low back spasm, Justin Lewis is out due to a G League two-way, Adama Sanogo is out due to a G League two-way, and Patrick Williams is probable is due to a left finger sprain.

Tonight is a game that the Nuggets should win, and a win here would give them the best record in the Western Conference. The Denver Nuggets and Chicago Bulls face off tonight at 9:00 p.m. EST.
