Bulls' Gibson out Thursday with fractured rib

HOUSTON -- Chicago Bulls power forward Taj Gibson will not play Thursday night against the Houston Rockets because of a rib fracture.

"We'll see how it progresses," Hoiberg said when asked if Gibson could be out for the rest of the year. "As of right now we'll sit him tonight and then test him again when we get back to Chicago [Friday]."

Gibson, who was scoreless in 10 minutes in Tuesday's win at Indiana, has been dealing with the injury for a few days. It remains unclear how long he will be out.
