Jalen Smith Questionable for Bulls with Ankle Soreness
Jalen Smith of the Chicago Bulls is dealing with left ankle soreness. He is currently listed as questionable to play in the team’s upcoming games. This news comes after a previous report on December 27, 2024, where he was expected to play despite the soreness.
What It Means
This injury could impact Jalen Smith’s performance and availability for the Bulls. So far this season, he has averaged 7.9 points per game and 5.5 rebounds per game. His shooting percentages are at 47% from the field and 35.2% from beyond the arc.
