According to Chicago Bulls Head Coach Billy Donavon, forward Javonte Green suffered a hip pointer injury in yesterday’s practice and sat out today’s non-contract practice.
His status for opening night on October 19th and the injury’s seriousness is unclear. Typically hip pointer injuries take about 1-2 weeks to recover from and gain the entire ability from the upper outside of your hip. If Green is somehow out longer than two weeks, that might suggest the injury is worse than expected.
But that is the worst-case scenario, and the Bulls do not want another bone bruise injury. The other Bulls player with a bone bruise injury right now is guard Lonzo Ball, who will be for the first couple of months of the season.
Javonte Green is coming off a great preseason with the Bulls averaging 15.0 points and 5.0 rebounds on 71.4% shooting from the field and 66.7% from three in four games. Green has earned the opportunity to start opening night, but that might not happen with the hip pointer injury. If Green is not ready, Patrick Williams will get the start for Chicago on Wednesday. By Tuesday, Bulls fans will know whether or not Green will be 100% ready to go. But more information should come out from the Bulls over the weekend.
Lonzo Ball, Justin Lewis, and Javonte Green are the three players on the Bulls’ injury report. By Tuesday, Bulls fans will know whether or not Green will be 100% ready to go. More information should come out from the Bulls over the weekend.
