MIAMI -- Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso has been cleared to play in Friday's play-in game against the Heat, coach Billy Donovan said.
Caruso sustained a left ankle injury on Wednesday night when center Andre Drummond stepped on his right foot during the Bulls' victory over the Atlanta Hawks in the play-in tournament. After colliding with Drummond, Caruso said he re-aggravated an issue he had been nursing down the stretch this season.
However, by Friday morning Caruso said the swelling around his ankle had not been an issue and he said following shootaround that he was expecting to be ready to go for Friday's elimination game.
