Schuster: Boozer Out, Deng A Game-Time Decision
By David Schuster--
Carlos Boozer will not play tonight vs. the Atlanta Hawks. Boozer continues to get treatment on his injured sprained ankle and though the swelling has gone down he is not ready to get back on the court. That likely means that he wont play tomorrow vs. Utah either but he's currently being listed as day- to-day. Following the back to back tilts this weekend the Bulls have some down time until their next game Tuesday vs Washington so the guess is that Boozer will sit until then.
Luol Deng is also hobbling. Deng sat out this morning's practice and is being listed as a game time decision for tonight. The Bull's small forward has a deep thigh bruise after getting kicked there in the game vs. Miami.
Coming into tonight the Bulls are the 2nd seed in the East but they trail Boston for the top spot by only a game and half.
