Short and not-so-sweet for this one:
We have an early 6pm Central start as the Bulls are in Detroit to face the Pistons on the start of a weekend road back-to-back. That portends poorly for the Bulls, but they have sorta looked better in the injury-filled part* of the season.
*aka ‘don’t judge! nonono. Unless it’s good stuff then judge away....’
They’re still heavy underdogs to the Pistons, who have won 7 of their last nine games. Granted, they’ve mostly beat crappy teams in that stretch, but the Bulls belong in that group.
The Bulls injury report is the same as always, hopefully changing next week with Markkanen’s return.
