Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) good to go for Bulls on Monday
Chicago Bulls power forward Wendell Carter Jr. (right ankle sprain) will start on Monday against the Dallas Mavericks.
What It Means:
Carter was previously listed as probable on the injury report. He was rusty on Saturday in his first game since early January, going 1-for-5 from the floor in 18.2 minutes of play. Zach LaVine (quad) has been downgraded to doubtful for Monday, so there could be a few more shots available on offense. The second-year big man has been serving as an undersized center for the Bulls, but he said recently that he plans to talk to the team after the season about moving to power forward.
numberFire's models expect WCJ to score 23.0 FanDuel points in 23.0 minutes on Monday. He's priced at $3,600. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Bulls have the third-lowest implied total (109.25 points) on Monday's seven-game slate.
