Coby White playing status vs Hawks
Given his questionable designation on the injury report, there was some doubt as to whether or not Coby White would be able to suit up for Sunday's game in Atlanta. However, White was ruled a go about an hour before the opening tip.
White played in the Bulls' most recent game against the Cavaliers, scoring 13 points in the victory. Joining White on the injury report was Jalen Smith, who was probable for the game with a left quadricep contusion, and Ayo Dosunmu, who was also probable with a right thumb sprain.
Meanwhile, Kristaps Porzingis will miss this game for the Hawks due to an illness, while Trae Young will be back in the lineup for his second game since returning from an MCL sprain.
Overall, the Bulls are looking to keep building momentum after their two wins against the Cavs helped get their season back on the right track. Chicago opened up this season at 5-0 but then fell off a cliff, ultimately dropping to 10-15 before the two wins against Cleveland.
Meanwhile, the Hawks have stumbled a bit as of late after a surprisingly strong start to the season, currently sitting a game over the .500 mark at 15-14 ahead of this matchup.
