The Chicago Bulls are gearing up to play against the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight, but have had to face an unfortunate setback. Starting guard Coby White exited tonight’s game with a calf injury, marking a tough break for the North Carolina native. Here are the details of his condition.

During the first quarter, White checked out with 5:25 left, with Ayo Dosunmu replacing him. There was no clear moment of contact or injury, but he looked uncomfortable heading to the bench.

Soon afterward, White headed to the locker room, exiting the game while reaching for his lower right leg and limping slightly. According to the Bulls, he is questionable to return due to a right calf injury. It should also be noted that it’s the same calf that sidelined him for the first 11 games this season. Later, he was ruled out for the rest of the night.

Since White had to leave the game early, he didn’t log any impressive stats. The guard recorded just two assists, and no points or shot attempts, in six and a half minutes of play.

The 25-year-old has averaged 20.5 points, 4.9 assists, and 3.4 rebounds this year in 15 appearances.

Meanwhile, after White went down, the team leaned more on bench guards.

How did the Chicago Bulls adjust without Coby White?

Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter put in extended minutes, with Dosunmu logging a team-high 32 minutes. The team posted an all-around effort, with Nikola Vucevic leading the team in scoring, but they simply couldn’t keep up with the Timberwolves on offense.

The Wolves turned a competitive game into a huge rout the moment the second half began. The team was up by five entering halftime, but erupted to start the third, outscoring the Bulls by 30 points after the break. Chicago was unable to find its pace after Minnesota found a rhythm following a choppy and uneven first half.

Wolves sixth man Naz Reid was the clear X-factor, logging a season high 33 points while knocking down shots from deep and punishing mismatches. Anthony Edwards added 23 points, while Julius Randle orchestrated the offense with 14 assists. The Wolves finished with six players in double figures, shooting confidently from beyond the arc.

The Bulls unraveled as injuries piled up. Apart from missing Zach Collins and losing Coby White early in the first, the team also lost breakout star Josh Giddey early in the third with a hamstring injury.

This proved to be too much, as turnovers and missed rotations piled up without their two main pieces. Minnesota took advantage, extending its lead to 41 at one point, turning the final quarter into a formality while extending its recent run of good play against the team with yet another solid win.
