The Chicago Bulls expect veteran forward Torrey Craig to miss at least the next two months because of a right foot injury.
Craig will be immobilized for about four weeks and will need an additional four to six weeks of rehab for an acute sprain of his plantar fascia, the team said Tuesday. He was injured in a loss in Miami on Saturday night.
Craig is averaging 6.1 points and 4.8 rebounds in his first season with the Bulls. He has averaged 6 points and 4 rebounds over seven seasons with the Denver Nuggets, Phoenix Suns, Indiana Pacers, Milwaukee Bucks and Bulls.
The Bulls, who hosted LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday, were 11-17 entering the game. They had won six of nine after beating the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday.
