Bulls News: Humiliating loss, Jalen Smith injury update, Coby White's new trade value The latest Chicago Bulls news after an embarrassing loss to the Charlotte Hornets, including Jalen Smith's painful absence and a Coby White...

Coby White - Questionable for Monday White (calf) is questionable for Monday's game in Boston.
Impact White has missed the past three games after aggravating his calf injury on Dec. 29, but it looks like there's a chance he could get back to the floor Monday night. We'll have a better idea on his status based on his activity level at shootaround, but if White can return, that would impact Kevin Huerter and Tre Jones' minutes.

Trentyn Flowers - Won't play Monday Flowers (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Celtics.
Impact Flowers will end up missing a fifth consecutive game while recovering from a sprained right knee. His next chance to play is Wednesday against the Pistons, though he hasn't been a significant contributor to the Bulls' rotation even when healthy.
4 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Smith - Out for Monday Smith (concussion) won't play Monday in Boston.
Impact Smith is currently in the concussion protocol testing and he'll need to clear a series of tests before he's allowed to return to the court. Patrick Williams and Julian Phillips should pick up the slack in Smith's absence.

Takeaways & Player Grades: Charlotte Hornets 112, Chicago Bulls 99 – January 3, 2026 Once again handed a great opportunity to move back over .500, the Chicago Bulls hand it right back with a 112-98 loss to the Charlotte Horne...
19 HOURS AGO • SI.COM
Nikola Vucevic - Matches season-high Vucevic finished Saturday's 112-99 loss to the Hornets with 28 points (11-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists and one block across 34 minutes.
Impact Vucevic matched his season-high, scoring 28 points for the third time. After slumping in early December, Vucevic has been able to turn things around in recent times, averaging 17.8 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.8 three-pointers in eight games over the past two weeks. Chicago's frontcourt is depleted at the moment, meaning Vucevic is likely to get all the playing time he can handle. If he can maintain his current momentum, he could prove to be an excellent sell-high candidate.
19 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Dalen Terry - Sticks in rotation Saturday Terry accumulated five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt) over 13 minutes during Saturday's 112-99 loss to the Hornets.
Impact With Josh Giddey (hamstring) and Coby White (calf) sidelined for the foreseeable future, Terry has been able to force his way into the rotation. With that said, he certainly hasn't made the most of his time on the floor, averaging just 1.3 points and 1.3 assists over the past four games.
19 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Patrick Williams - Fails to score in loss Williams amassed zero points (0-7 FG, 0-5 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal over 15 minutes during Saturday's 112-99 loss to the Hornets.
Impact Williams was unable to maintain his recent momentum, failing to score for the third time in his past six games. Prior to Saturday, Williams had dropped double-digit points in back-to-back games. It would appear as though that was nothing but an outlier, with Williams' extremely low ceiling coming back to haunt him. In 33 appearances, he has averaged just 6.7 points and 1.3 three-pointers in 18.8 minutes per game.

Nikola Vucevic - Sniffs double-double Vucevic posted 28 points (11-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists and a block across 34 minutes in Saturday's 112-99 loss to the Hornets.
Impact Vucevic was the Bulls' best player by a wide margin in this loss, ending just two assists away from a double-double. Vucevic should be one of the Bulls' most reliable offensive weapons for the time being due to the absences of Josh Giddey (hamstring) and Coby White (calf). However, Vucevic has scored 20 or more points in only two of his last six contests.
21 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Smith - Enters concussion protocol Smith entered the league's concussion protocol following the Bulls' 112-99 loss to the Hornets on Saturday, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Impact Smith was evaluated by medical staff after a head-to-head collision with LaMelo Ball early in the third quarter, and the former has now been placed in concussion protocol. The Bulls' next game takes place Monday against Boston, but Smith would need to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to be available. With Zach Collins (toe) sidelined, Patrick Williams and Julian Phillips would be in line for more minutes if Smith were to miss time, though it's worth noting that Kevin Huerter led the bench with 31 minutes during Saturday's loss.

Jalen Smith - Possible concussion Smith is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Saturday's game against Charlotte.
Impact Smith was helped to the locker room early in the third quarter after a head-to-head collision with LaMelo Ball. Patrick Williams and Julian Phillips will step into larger roles for as long as Smith is being evaluated by medical staff.

Jalen Smith - Helped to locker room Smith went to the locker room early in the third quarter of Saturday's game against the Hornets due to a head injury, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Impact Smith was involved in a head-to-head collision with LaMelo Ball, with the former staying down for several minutes before being helped to the locker room. Patrick Williams and Julian Phillips should see more minutes off the bench for as long as Smith is out of the game.

Lachlan Olbrich - Not listed on injury report Olbrich (ankle) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
Impact Olbrich has missed time recently due to a sprained left ankle, though he's off the injury report ahead of Saturday's contest. The two-way player hasn't appeared in a game for the parent club since Dec. 7, so his availability shouldn't affect the Chicago rotation.
