CHICAGO (AP) — Bulls rookie Caleb Wilson will be sidelined for
four to six weeks because of a broken right hand.
Wilson got hurt in the third quarter of Wednesday night's
124-119 loss to San Antonio. The 6-foot-10 forward had surgery
on Thursday, and the team said he would be re-evaluated in three
weeks.
Wilson's injury is a major blow for Chicago. The rebuilding
Bulls have lost eight in a row to drop to 1-9 on the season.
The 20-year-old Wilson was selected by Chicago with the No. 4
pick in the draft. He started the team's first 10 games,
averaging 18.9 points and 6.2 rebounds.
Wilson's final season at the University of North Carolina was
cut short by left hand and right thumb injuries.
Chicago plays Atlanta on Friday night before beginning a
three-game trip at Minnesota on Saturday night.
ESPN was the first to report on the extent of Wilson's injury.
