Klay Thompson Will Also Sit Out Against the Bulls Tomorrow Night

Considering the injuries to Derrick Jones Jr., Javonte Green, Patrick Williams, and Alex Caruso, I think it’s only fair that the Bulls caught themselves a break for tomorrow night’s matchup against the Golden State Warriors.

Although it was rumored earlier in the week, it’s now official: Klay Thompson will sit out tomorrow night against the Bulls.

And he’s not the only one.

Earlier this week, we learned that Draymond Green would also be sitting out against the Bulls. Again, after the smack-down the Bulls took last night at the hands of the Nets, any advantage against one of the West’s top teams is a welcomed one. Of course, Thompson was out the last time these two teams met up (Nov. 12), and the Warriors still beat the Bulls 119-93.

Tip-off at the United Center is scheduled for 6:30 CT tomorrow night.
