Zach Collins Injury: Out at least four weeks

Collins will be sidelined for at least four weeks due to a left wrist fracture, Mike McGraw of the Chicago Daily Herald reports.

This injury occurred in Chicago's preseason finale and required surgery. Based on this timetable, the earliest Collins will be able to return is Nov. 16 against the Jazz. Collins was projected to open the regular season as the backup center behind Nikola Vucevic, but those minutes may fall to Jalen Smith to begin the campaign. The Bulls could also opt for smaller and quicker lineups.
