Milwaukee Bucks vs Chicago Bulls Injury Reports for March 1 | 2023-24 NBA Season

The Milwaukee Bucks will take on the Chicago Bulls for the fourth and final time this season on Friday. Milwaukee, which won 133-129 in overtime on Dec. 11, will be looking to decisively win the head-to-head matchup between the two teams. The Bucks will be playing the second night of a back-to-back set when they visit Chicago.

The Bulls may be well-rested but they’re undermanned. A handful of their key players will be inactive when they host Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks. Despite the injury-riddled lineup, DeMar DeRozan and his teammates will try to keep their opponents from another win against them.

Besides playing the back end of two consecutive games, Milwaukee will also likely be without Khris Middleton. Doc Rivers said that the former All-Star will meet them in Windy City but the forward is not suiting up.

Alex Caruso has been ruled questionable as he is dealing with a right hamstring strain. Chicago’s defensive ace sat out the Bulls’ 132-123 overtime win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday. He reportedly has not practiced with the team so his status is iffy.
