CHICAGO (CBS) — Bulls forward Taj Gibson will miss Sunday evening’s game against the 76ers with a sore left ankle, coach Fred Hoiberg said.
“He had a little bit of a sore ankle yesterday, and he went out and tested it just a few minutes ago, and we determined it’s best to sit him tonight with the sore ankle,” Hoiberg said.
Gibson was a partial participant in what the Bulls called an intense Saturday practice after an ugly loss Friday to the Heat.
Hoiberg didn’t immediately announce who would start in Gibson’s place. His hope is Gibson will be available Wednesday when the Bulls face the Thunder on the road.
This will be the second game Gibson has missed in the past 13 days with a sore left ankle, which he had surgery on in summer 2015.
Gibson is averaging 11.6 points and a team-high 7.1 rebounds.
