NBC Chicago’s K.C. Johnson reports that Chicago Bulls PR has said that Zach LaVine has been placed under health and safety protocols.

The Bulls organization had some COVID-19 concerns to start the series, but the players avoided the virus for the most part. However, with LaVine being placed under protocols, that’s not the case anymore.

Chicago had a COVID-19 outbreak in December, which also included LaVine. He won’t be able to return to the lineup until Game 7 (if it happens). The Bulls’ backcourt might be without Alex Caruso as well. He’s listed as questionable for Game 5 after being placed under concussion protocol. DeMar DeRozan will be primed to carry a massive load for Chicago, so his props could be worth a look.

The Bulls are down 3-1 in their series with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Over at FanDuel Sportsbook, the Chicago Bulls are +540 on the moneyline and +12 on the spread against the Milwaukee Bucks for Game 5 on Wednesday.
