KC Johnson: Bulls list Isaac Okoro and Dalen Terry out and Kevin Huerter (illness) and Patrick Williams (wrist) questionable vs. Pelicans. Zion Williamson isn’t on injury report for New Orleans, who are without Jordan Poole, Herb Jones and Dejounte Murray. Kevon Looney is questionable.
Julia Poe: Matas Buzelis will play today, per Billy Donovan. Kevin Huerter will “try” but he’s still battling illness. Isaac Okoro, Patrick Williams and Dalen Terry are all out. Those injuries to the forwards mean that Noa Essengue likely makes his debut: “It definitely could happen.”

“The reality of it is most of these guys, 95% of the game they are playing without the ball in their hands,” Donovan explained on Friday. “They don’t need to be waiting to get the ball back in their hands. There’s other things they can be doing to impact the game. (Former Bull Alex) Caruso did it for us at a really high level, and I think Isaac (Okoro) will do it for us, but I think for our guys being young too, they have to understand that we don’t have a lot of guys that can play with the ball in their hands and that can make plays, be these elite, high-level scorers. “So for them to carve out a niche in the NBA and have a long career, they’ve really got to understand that they really got to embrace their 95% that they don’t have the ball in their hands in some way.”
“The league in general is doing a lot of off-ball-movements, especially with bigs being able to pass and stretch the floor, and it opens up so many more opportunities,” Vucevic said. “It’s something we talk a lot about. The additions of Tre (Jones) and Kevin (Huerter) last year, they’re such good cutters, and ‘Ice,’ Isaac Okoro, this year, they’re really good cutters, so it adds to our offense.”
Joe Cowley: No Okoro tonight. Tried fighting through knee soreness in Denver. Shut him down second half and will sit him tonight against TWolves, says the Billy D.
