The team announced that both Josh Giddey (hamstring) and Coby White (calf) won't be available for their upcoming home game as they'll welcome the visiting Pels.
The two notably left prematurely in the Bulls' previous 136-101 loss against the Minnesota Timberwolves. White didn't return by the end of the first quarter, while Giddey was sidelined by the start of the second half.
Right after the game, head coach Billy Donovan gave his insights into what happened to the two.
With both of their backcourt starters out, the Bulls wil likely rely more on Tre Jones, Ayo Dosunmu, Matas Buzelis and Isaac Okoro.
Currently ninth in the East, Chicago (15-19) will look to snap its two-game losing skid against New Orleans.
