Bulls suspend Portis 8 games for injuring Mirotic
Print Edition
The Chicago Bulls suspended forward Bobby Portis for the first eight games of the season on Wednesday for injuring teammate Nikola Mirotic during a fight at practice.
Mirotic suffered broken bones in his face as well as a concussion on Tuesday and will likely need surgery. Vice president of basketball operations John Paxson said Mirotic is expected to miss four to six weeks, and that he needs to clear the concussion protocol before the facial injuries can be resolved. Paxson acknowledged fault on both sides while calling the incident 鈥渋nexcusable鈥. He also called Portis 鈥渁 good kid鈥 who 鈥渕ade a mistake鈥. It certainly was not what the rebuilding Bulls wanted heading into the season opener at Toronto today. The incident takes two more players out of their rotation, with newcomer Zach LaVine also missing the start of the season as he works his way back from a torn ACL he suffered with Minnesota.
