The Bulls have listed Dosunmu as probable with a right thumb sprain and he is expected to play on Sunday where he could have a large role, especially if White is sidelined.

Jalen Smith has also been listed as probable and is expected to play despite dealing with a left quad contusion while Noa Essengue has been ruled out as he is set to miss the remainder of the season after undergoing shoulder surgery.

Hawks Injury Report, Will Trae Young, Kristaps Porzingis Play?

On the other side, the Hawks have only one player listed on their injury report as they have ruled out center Kristaps Porzingis.

Atlanta has ruled out Porzingis due to an illness as he will miss his sixth consecutive game and he is expected to miss at least two more weeks.

With Porzingis still sidelined, Onyeka Okongwu will likely continue to start in his place while Mouhamed Gueye could also have an increased role.

The good news for the Hawks is that Trae Young is off the injury report and will return after sitting out Friday’s loss to the Spurs due to knee injury management.
