    Here we go again! Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. The Chicago Bulls have several players listed on their injury report. While injuries are undoubtedly a part of the game, it seems like the injury bug can't get enough of the Bulls.

    Bulls fans have shown concern about injuries emerging this early as the regular season hasn't even started. But the bright side is that most of these ailments seem minor, and any absences seem to be precautionary.

    Coby White missed Saturday's preseason game against the Memphis Grizzles on Saturday with a sore groin. Jalen Smith also sat out with a sore knee. Both players are considered day-to-day.

    Two players weren't available during the second half of Saturday’s game.

    Ayo Dosunmu, who suffered a left shoulder stinger while diving on the floor for a loose ball, told reporters he was fine and wanted to return but was held out by the medical staff.

    Patrick Williams suffered a jammed wrist and was sent for X-rays. The results were negative and he's day-to-day along with Dosunmu.

    Lonzo Ball Watch

    Lonzo Ball, who hasn't seen game action for two years, was already ruled out for Monday's game against the Bucks. ESPN's Shams Charania reported that Ball will make his long-awaited return Wednesday when the Bulls host the Minnesota Timberwolves at the United Center.

    CHSN's K.C. Johnson reported that Zach LaVine also isn't expected to play Monday against Milwaukee. Expect the younger Bulls, like rookie Matas Buzelis, to get heavy minutes against the Bucks while Chicago's regulars are on the mend.
