15 Chandler Hutchison SF

Hutchison (hamstring) did not practice Saturday, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Hutchison has progressed to doing some on-court work, but his availability for Wednesday's regular-season opener in Charlotte appears to be in jeopardy. More information should arrive closer to gameday.

Hutchison (hamstring) practiced Tuesday but will not play in Wednesday's preseason game against the Pelicans, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

It sounds like Hutchison, who is working his way through a hamstring injury, didn't go through a full practice Tuesday, so it's not surprising to see the team holding him out for another contest. His next opportunity to play will be Friday in Indiana.

Hutchison (hamstring) will practice Tuesday, Darnell Mayberry of The Athletic reports.

It's definitely a step in the right direction for the forward who is expected to miss the start of the season due to a nagging hamstring injury. Hutchison has recently started to run in drills and is reportedly expected to be back at practice Tuesday.

Hutchison (hamstring) did some running on Friday, Mike McGraw of the Chicago Daily Herald reports.

Hutchison's hamstring strain is significant, and he's expected to be out for around two weeks. As a result, it's possible he misses the beginning of the regular season.

Coach Jim Boylan said Hutchison (hamstring) is "at least two more weeks away" from returning, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Hutchison injured his hamstring during a workout in early September and is still multiple weeks away from a return, leaving his status for the start of the regular season in question. In 44 games last season, Hutchison averaged 5.2 points and 4.2 rebounds in 20.3 minutes.

Hutchison is "going to be out for a little bit" while recovering from a left hamstring strain, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Hutchison suffered the injury in early September during a workout, and he's still not back at full strength. The Bulls haven't revealed a concrete timeline at this point, though he seems likely to be ready in time for the start of the regular season.

Hutchison suffered a left hamstring strain Thursday while working out.

The injury doesn't seem serious, and the team noted that Hutchison "will be re-evaluated regularly, as he progresses through his rehabilitation." The second-year player had a subpar summer league stint, averaging 13.5 points on 12.8 shots, 6.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steal in 26.2 minutes. He figures to be the favorite this season as the first small forward off the bench.

Hutchison noted that he's on a roughly 20-minute restriction during summer league, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

It's not immediately clear why Hutchison is on a minutes limit, as he's not dealing with an injury. It may just be because he's already on the roster, and the coaching staff would like to use summer league as more of a tryout for players looking to make the team.

Hutchison will play for the Bulls' summer league team.

Hutchison saw his rookie campaign cut short due to injury, but not before drawing 14 starts across 44 games. He was a low-usage player, but showed some upside as a rebounder, and he scored at a relatively efficient clip from the field (45.9 percent). Hutchison will look to continue showcasing his development while in Las Vegas.

Hutchison (toe) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season.

A broken toe will keep the rookie out for the remainder of the year. He'll finish his first season having played in 44 games, averaging 5.2 points and 4.2 rebounds in 20.3 minutes. He is expected to be fully healed for summer league.

Hutchison (toe) is expected to remain sidelined for two more weeks, Mike McGraw of the Chicago Daily Herald reports.

While Hutchison is slowly making his way back from a broken right toe, he'll require at least two more weeks of rehab before the Bulls even consider getting him back into game action. He's currently looking at a return in late March, assuming he doesn't suffer any additional setbacks.

Hutchison (toe) is increasing his on-court activity but remains without a firm timetable, KC Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Hutchison was observed going through sprints and conditioning drills during Wednesday's shootaround, but the Bulls have neglected to offer anything in the way of a firm return timeline. The rookie first-rounder hasn't played since fracturing his toe on Jan. 25, but he figures to be back in the mix sometime in early-to-mid March. Prior to the injury, Hutchison had started his last 11 games -- averaging 29.2 MPG in that span -- but the Bulls have made some roster changes in the interim, so what role he'll step back into down the stretch remains to be seen.

Coach Jim Boylen said Wednesday that Hutchison (toe) remains without a definitive timeline for a return, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Coming out of the All-Star break, Hutchison was able to shed the walking boot that had been protecting the fractured sesamoid bone in his right foot, but doctors have yet to clear the rookie to resume on-court work. At this stage, Hutchison is probably safe to rule out for the rest of February, and a clear target date probably won't be known until he's able to take contact in practice.

Hutchison (toe) is expected to be confined to a walking boot for up to four weeks and will be re-examined after the All-Star break.

Hutchison has officially been diagnosed with an acute injury to a sesamoid bone in his right foot, which will knock him out of game action for an extended period of time. The 22nd overall pick in the June draft, Hutchison has started the past 11 games for Chicago, averaging 8.2 points and 6.4 rebounds across 29.2 minutes. Coach Jim Boylen will be faced with the task of finding a replacement small forward. Jabari Parker, Wayne Selden and Shaquille Harrison are all candidates to fill minutes at the position.

Hutchison (toe) is expected to miss at least two weeks, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Hutchison is expected to have his fractured right toe reevaluated in two weeks, but will likely miss at least that time and could be at risk of having an extended absence based on the diagnosis. It's unclear who will start in place of Hutchison, but Shaquille Harrison and Wayne Selden are good bets to see an increase in run.

Hutchison underwent an MRI on Saturday and there is "strong internal concern" that he's suffered a right toe injury in Friday's 106-101 loss to the Clippers that could keep him out for an extended time, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

More information should arrive once the MRI results come back, but it's possible Hutchison has suffered a long-term injury. The health setback comes at an unfortunate time for Hutchison, who tallied his first career double-double (12 points, 12 rebounds) and added two assists and one steal in 41 minutes Friday. If Hutchison is sidelined for an extended period, coach Jim Boylen could be forced to turn to Jabari Parker or Shaquille Harrison as the team's starting small forward.

Hutchison totaled 12 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two steals across 27 minutes in the Bulls' 107-100 loss to the Lakers on Tuesday.

Despite the disappointing team outcome, Tuesday's game was another step on the right direction for the rookie, who's put together back-to-back double-digit scoring efforts for the first time in his career. Hutchison has shot well over 50 percent on each of those games as well, and he's also developing into a steady force on the boards. Factoring in his line versus the Lakers, Hutchison has pulled down between five and eight rebounds in his last four contests, his most productive stretch in that category thus far.

Hutchison will start Friday's matchup against the Pacers, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Hutchison practiced with the starters Friday and will reportedly be making his fourth start of the season versus Indiana. The rookie is currently posting 17.3 minutes, 4.2 points and 3.5 rebounds across 33 games played this year.

Hutchison (illness) has been cleared to play Saturday against San Antonio, KC Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Hutchison had been dealing with an illness, but he'll return Saturday and could be thrust into an increased role in the absence of Zach LaVine (ankle), who will miss at least the next two games -- and likely longer. Hutchison is averaging 2.5 points and 3.9 rebounds in 14.8 minutes over his last eight contests.

Hutchison (illness) will be a game-time call for Saturday's game against San Antonio, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Hutchison was held out of Thursday's contest, and his status remains up in the air heading into Saturday. His availability will likely be revealed closer to tipoff. The Bulls are labeling Hutchison's issue as a gastrointestinal illness.
