Top Jalen Smith News

  • Bulls' Jalen Smith: Will play Friday

    Smith (ankle) is active for Friday's game against the Celtics, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports.

    Smith participated in Friday's shootaround, and he should see a steady dose of minutes off the bench as the primary backup to Nikola Vucevic at center. Smith is averaging 6.9 points, 4.8 rebounds and 0.8 blocks per game in 13 contests since the beginning of November.

  • Bulls' Jalen Smith: Participates in shootaround

    Smith (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Celtics, participated in the club's morning shootaround, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

    Smith was sidelined during Wednesday's loss to the Magic, though his participation in shootaround bodes well for a potential return to game action. If the big man is unable to suit up again due to the left ankle sprain, the club could take an extended look at Adama Sanogo and E.J. Liddell off the bench.

  • Bulls' Jalen Smith: Iffy vs. Boston

    Smith (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Celtics.

    Smith missed Wednesday's game against the Magic, and it's unclear if he'll recover in time to return against the reigning NBA champions. If he's unable to return for Friday's contest, Adama Sanogo could be in line to see minutes off the bench.

  • Bulls' Jalen Smith: Will not play Wednesday

    Smith (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's tilt against the Magic.

    Wednesday will mark Smith's third absence of the season and first since Nov. 11. He's been playing backup center minutes, but the Bulls don't have any other true fives to give extended run to beyond starter Nikola Vucevic. Head coach Billy Donovan may have to run more small-ball lineups when Vucevic is off the floor Wednesday.

  • Bulls' Jalen Smith: Iffy for Wednesday

    Smith is questionable for Wednesday's game against Orlando due to a left ankle sprain.

    Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so the Bulls could take a cautious approach. Smith had a terrific showing Tuesday against the Wizards, scoring 12 points with nine rebounds, two assists and one block. If he's unable to play Wednesday, the Bulls are likely to utilize some smaller lineups.

  • Bulls' Jalen Smith: Season-best effort on glass

    Smith logged 12 points (5-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block across 18 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 127-108 win over the Wizards.

    The nine boards were a season high for Smith. The fifth-year center hasn't seen his court time increase while Patrick Williams (foot) has been sidelined, but Smith has been more productive -- over the last three games he's scored in double digits twice while averaging 10.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.7 threes and 1.3 blocks in only 16.0 minutes a contest.

    Smith was a late addition to the injury report which usually isn't a great sign. He's been solid for the Bulls this season, averaging 8.9 points and 5.2 rebounds in 14.6 minutes through nine games. If he's unable to play, the Bulls could potentially use some smaller lineups.
