Bulls' Curry Remains In Charlotte With Irregular Heartbeat

Chicago Bulls fourth-year center Eddy Curry did not accompany the team on the flight back to Chicago this morning. Instead, Curry, 22, remained in Charlotte, N.C. for observation and treatment for an irregular heartbeat.

The 6-11, 285-pound Curry has appeared in 60 games for the Bulls this season, including 60 starts, and is averaging a team-high 16.1 ppg, 5.4 rpg and 28.7 mpg, while shooting .538 from the floor.

"Right before the game, I felt some lightheadedness and dizziness. It came out of nowhere, so it really kind of scared me a little bit," Curry said after the game.

Curry also had scored at least 25 points in his previous two games, making a strong case for why the Bulls should resign the young center this offseason.

Fellow rookie Emeka Okafor had 17 points and 10 rebounds, another solid but far from spectacular night.

``When Ben gets in a zone, he just turns it on,'' Okafor said. ``I was with him for three years, so I've seen everything.''

"It's depressing," Hinrich said.

“It's disturbing because he hasn't gotten any better," Skiles said. "I know Kirk would play almost no matter what. When the time comes that he can't play, it's serious enough that I should be concerned. It's an injury that requires rest. It's a time of year when you don't get
