Things to Keep in Mind …

Bulls catch another break.

Was told that Kemba Walker (illness) did not travel to Chicago with the Celtics.

— Adam Himmelsbach (@AdamHimmelsbach) January 4, 2020

The Celtics come to town on the back end of a back-to-back, after playing the Atlanta Hawks last night in a surprisingly close game. The Celtics only won by three, so combine that with the Kemba Walker injury, and that might be why the Bulls are -1.0, according to ESPN’s Pick Center.

Hutchison played pretty darn well in the G-League last night, but Jim Boylen is still keeping him sidelined. Uh, why?

Jim Boylen says Chandler Hutchison will be inactive tonight vs BOS after playing for the Windy City Bulls last. #Bulls #BullsNation
