Will Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving Play Tonight? Brooklyn Nets vs Chicago Bulls – Predictions, Injury Updates, and Lineups

The Brooklyn Nets will take on the Chicago Bulls in the closing stretch of the NBA season. The Nets have had a fruitful year so far. Kevin Durant’s first season back from injury has been odd, because of his injury concerns throughout the season. But he hasn’t looked weakened at all. Kyrie Irving has been spectacular, as has James Harden prior to his injury. The Nets will feel confident going into the playoffs.

For the Chicago Bulls, things aren’t looking so good. Despite trading for All-Star Nikola Vucevic before the deadline, the Bulls haven’t reaped the benefits yet. They are currently the 11th seed in the East and could miss the playoffs altogether if they don’t show drastic improvement going forward. Zach LaVine has had his best season so far, but it hasn’t been enough to elevate the Bulls so far.

With that in mind, take a look at the Brooklyn Nets taking on the Chicago Bulls
