With the widespread of COVID-19 cases throughout the NBA as of late, the Chicago Bulls may have felt the impact the hardest with an incredible amount of players lost due to the NBA\u2019s Health and Safety protocols. The effect has affected their schedule, with their Sunday game against the Lakers\u00a0being moved from the afternoon to a night game\u00a0and\u00a0two postponements\u00a0for their games against the Pacers and Raptors.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The issues with positive cases have caused the Bulls to depend on the hardship exemption adding three players recently to the roster. Those three players are South Bay Lakers G-League player\u00a0Mac McClung,\u00a0Alfonzo McKinnie, and\u00a0Stanley Johnson\u00a0per The Athletic\u2019s Sham Charania.<\/p>\n
