The Chicago Bulls got off to a hot start this season but the past few weeks have been tough sledding. Chicago is now 6-5 having lost four-straight games following the 6-1 start. They’ve also battled some injuries and haven’t had a fully healthy roster yet.
But that could change.
On Sunday, the team received good news regarding a key piece to their rotation in Coby White.

With the Bulls on the road Sunday night in Utah, guard Coby White will make his season debut. Bulls’ PR released the news during the afternoon as White has now been cleared to play.
The 25-year-old White has yet to play this season after he’s been rehabbing from a calf strain injury. He’s coming off a big season a year ago, averaging a career-high 20.4 points per game.
White told beat reporter K.C. Johnson that he’s “excited to get back and play the game I love.”
Johnson also reported that White will be on a minutes restriction for the game somewhere around 24 per game. That number hasn’t been finalized so it will be interesting to see what they do when he makes his debut.
For the Bulls, this could be a big boost. With that four-game losing streak, they have been without Josh Giddey who has missed a few games due to an injury. Giddey’s emergence was a big story to start the year and getting him back with White should certainly help things.
