(670 The Score) Bulls forward Patrick Williams is ready to return.
After nearly a five-month absence due to a left wrist injury, Williams will rejoin the Bulls on Monday night for their game against the Raptors at the United Center.
The 20-year-old Williams suffered the injury during a game on Oct. 28 against the Knicks and later underwent surgery to repair torn ligaments in his left wrist. He played in just five games before the injury, averaging 6.6 points per contest.
Williams was the No. 4 overall pick by the Bulls in the 2020 NBA Draft. He started in all 71 games as a rookie, averaging 9.2 points and 4.6 rebounds per game.
Entering Sunday, the Bulls had lost eight of their last 10 games and were 5.5 games back of first place in the Eastern Conference, currently occupying the fifth spot in the standings.
The Bulls (41-29) and Raptors (39-31) tip off at 7 p.m. CT Monday from the United Center.
