Canaan will get the start at point guard in Friday's Game 6 against the Celtics, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Canaan logged 36 minutes and scored 13 points (6-11 FG, 1-5 3PT), but did not record an assist and had four turnovers after starting in Wednesday's Game 5. With Rajon Rondo (thumb) likely out again for Friday's game, the Bulls will need Canaan to step up in a big way in order to keep their playoff hopes alive. His 34 and 36 minutes played over his last two games indicate that head coach Fred Hoiberg significantly favors him at the one spot relative to guards Michael Carter-Williams and Jerian Grant.
