Bulls' Nikola Mirotic: Will start Saturday

Mirotic is expected to start Saturday's game against the Hornets after passing concussion protocol, Chris Kuc of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Mirotic sustained a concussion during Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, but it appears as if the 24-year-old forward isn't showing any ill effects from the collision. Still, head injuries can be tricky business, so it's certainly possible the Bulls put a limit on Mirotic's minutes making him a risky play in daily leagues.
