Chicago Bulls power forward Wendell Carter Jr. has been diagnosed with a high right ankle sprain, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic.

Carter Jr. is "likely to miss multiple weeks," per Charania. Thaddeus Young scored 18 points with 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals, and 3 3-pointers in a start on Wednesday. He figures to gain the most from the injury.
