Bulls' Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) 'aiming to return' on Thursday
Chicago Bulls power forward Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) 'aiming' to play in Thursday's matchup against the Charlotte Hornets.
What It Means:
According to Westerlund, Carter Jr. is "aiming to return" on Thursday after missing five weeks with a high ankle sprain. "I'm definitely feeling a lot better," said Carter. "I'm just continuously doing rehab and therapy on the ankle every day. I want to be back the next game. That's what I'm shooting for right now."
Expect the Bulls' center to play with a minutes restriction if he returns for Thursday's game against the Hornets.
