Zach LaVine is available to play against the Atlanta Hawks. LaVine has missed the last three games with a right adductor strain. The Chicago Bulls forward was questionable for those games but was ruled out as a game-time decision. However, he isn't ruled out for today's game after being listed as questionable earlier.

According to Bulls beat writer K.C. Johnson, LaVine is targeting a comeback against the Hawks, barring a late setback. The two-time NBA All-Star hasn't played in over a week, so he's had enough rest to recover from his injury.

The Bulls could use his services to get back to winning ways after slumping to four straight losses, three without their star. He's been exceptional to start the year, averaging 22.7 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists, shooting 49.5%, including 45.8% from 3-point range.

Zach LaVine stats vs. Atlanta Hawks

Zach LaVine has averaged 21.4 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 25 games against the Atlanta Hawks. His second and fourth-career highest-scoring games also came against Atlanta.

He torched the Hawks for 50 points in a 120-108 loss on Apr. 4, 2021. He shot 58.1%, including 7-of-12 from 3. He added eight rebounds and five assists, but the Bulls still came up short.

He scored 47 points against the Hawks on Mar. 1, 2019, in a 168-161 win for the Bulls that went to four overtimes. He nearly finished with a triple-double, also tallying nine rebounds and nine assists with two steals, shooting 48.6%, including 6-of-14 from 3-point range.

The Bulls offense has struggled in his absence, with a 112.1 rating in the past three games. His potential inclusion should help bolster Chicago in that department. The Bulls' hopes of winning this game rest on that, as their underperforming defense may not hold up well against the Hawks offense.
