Impact Unsurprisingly, LaVine, DeMar DeRozan (rest) and Nikola Vucevic (rest) will not play in the finale with the No. 6 seed locked up. Plenty of bench players will see massively expanded roles.

Zach LaVine - Won't play in finale LaVine (knee) is out Sunday against the Timberwolves.
DeMar DeRozan - Resting for finale DeRozan will not play in Sunday's game against the Timberwolves due to rest.
Impact Chicago is locked into the No. 6 seed and resting its key players in the regular-season finale. Plenty of bench players should see expanded roles.
APRIL 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Nikola Vucevic - Resting for finale Vucevic will rest for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Timberwolves.
Impact Chicago is locked into the No. 6 seed, so there's no need for Vucevic to risk injury. Notably, DeMar DeRozan (rest) and Zach LaVine (knee) are also out. Tristan Thompson and Tony Bradley should see extra minutes.

Gordon Hayward - Out vs. Wizards Hayward (foot) is out Sunday against the Wizards, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Impact Following a one-game return from a foot injury, Hayward will end up missing four straight games to end the year. His status for the play-in is clearly in jeopardy.

Matt Thomas - Out Sunday Thomas (lower leg) is out Sunday against the Timberwolves.
Impact Thomas will sit out the regular-season finale. Even when available, he hardly sees action.

Alex Caruso - Out at Minnesota Caruso (back) is out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Impact Caruso will end up missing the final three games of the regular season. With Coby White (toe) doubtful as well, more minutes should be in store for Ayo Dosunmu and Javonte Green.
APRIL 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Coby White - Doubtful Sunday White is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves due to a sprained left toe.
Impact White continues to act as a sixth man in the backcourt for Chicago, and he should remain in that role since Lonzo Ball (knee) is done for the year. In White's presumed absence Sunday, more minutes could be in store for Ayo Dosunmu and Javonte Green.
