Zach LaVine and four other members of the Bulls exited health and safety protocols on Friday, coach Billy Donovan told reporters.

Along with LaVine, Ayo Dosunmu, Alize Johnson, Matt Thomas, and Devon Dotson also are all now available to play.

While this news offered the Bulls the promise of getting the team back together, it was revealed that guard Alex Caruso will be out 7-10 days with a left foot sprain.

Donovan said everybody is out of protocols. Everybody practiced but injured guys Alex Caruso and Derrick Jones Jr.
