Luke Kornet, Lonzo Ball, more

After a turbulent few days off, the Boston Celtics are back in action on Friday evening with a game against the Chicago Bulls. It will be the third of four NBA Cup games for both teams and there is a lot at stake. Both teams are 2-1 heading into the evening, meaning the outcome of the group could partially decide the outcome.

Boston is on a six-game winning streak, including two straight wins against the Minnesota Timberwolves and LA Clippers. As for the Bulls, they have been very mediocre this season and are 4-6 in their last 10 games.

Here are the injury reports for the Celtics’ NBA Cup game against the Bulls on Friday, November 29th.

The only member of the Celtics on the injury report is Luke Kornetwho is struggling with a hamstring strain. He missed the Celtics’ game against the Clippers on Monday night.

For the first time this season Kristaps Porzingis is not listed on Boston’s injury report. He returned to action against LA. Up until that point, he was out and still recovering from offseason surgery to repair a foot injury he sustained during the NBA Finals.

Chicago had a lot of players listed on the injury report before the game against Boston.

Patrick Williams will be out against the Celtics, which marks the sixth straight game he has missed with a foot injury.

Coby White, Dalen TerryAnd Jalen Smith It’s all in question whether they can play against Boston. White has a left wrist sprain and Terry and Smith are both dealing with ankle problems.

Lonzo Ball is likely to play as he continues to battle a right wrist sprain. This season he is back on the pitch for the first time in over two years.

The Bulls have played a much more three-point-heavy offensive style this year, even though their team isn’t the best at shooting from distance.

This is probably what the Celtics will roll with:

This is what the Bulls’ top five could look like:
