KC Johnson @KCJHoop
This is good test for Bulls because it’s a tough matchup, particularly with Caruso out. Indy plays bigs. Does Lonzo Ball start on Sabonis? No great options there. – 8:02 PM

Billy Donovan said Nikola Vucevic is still in cardiovascular testing phase of COVID protocol. Not sure yet if he’ll travel to Houston and Orlando later in week, will know more after tonight’s game
Added Vucevic seems to be doing “great” and it’s been good to catch up with him – 6:28 PM
Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Alex Caruso will be out tonight with a bruised wrist.
Donovan says it’s been lingering for several games and was aggravated when he caught himself taking that late game charge last night. Isn’t expected to be a long-term injury, but changes the defensive outlook tonight. – 6:23 PM
Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
Alex Caruso (wrist) is out tonight. Headed for an MRI, so until they have results Billy Donovan won’t speculate. – 6:19 PM

When I watch other teams around the league, I can’t help but play the “which of these guys would help the Timberwolves” game.
Every time I watch the Pacers, the answer is so clearly Myles Turner. pic.twitter.com/fBTRbOmt8b – 4:09 PM
