Houston Rockets (10-20) at Chicago Bulls (18-10)
Preview: The Chicago Bulls are back in multiple senses of the phrase.
Guys are finally coming back off the COVID-19 health and safety protocols list. Granted the Bulls don’t have all their key players back yet, but at least the roster isn’t gutted to the point where games can’t be contested fairly.
Having DeMar DeRozan back is huge. Not only is he the Bulls’ closer, but having him and Zach LaVine out simultaneously would have been just brutal for the offense, especially with Nikola Vucevic struggling to start the season.
