Noah Set To Start On Wednesday

Joakim Noah will start in his first game back after missing nearly two months with a hand injury when the Chicago Bulls take on the Toronto Raptors.

Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau emphasized that Noah's minutes would depend on his conditioning, but that the team wants to get him back to starter-like time "as quickly as possible."

The Bulls went 22-8 over the 30 games Noah missed to undergo hand surgery and the rehabilitation that followed.

"Just because he's back doesn't mean it's easier," Thibodeau said. "We have to keep our edge."
