Joakim Noah has privately been dealing with bruised tendons in his right hand and the Bulls have thought about sitting him to allow the injury to heal.
Noah's hand keeps getting hit in games, which isn't allowing the tendons to heal on their own.
As of Tuesday night, Noah was expected to play on Wednesday against the Raptors as Chicago looks for their seventh straight win.
Noah is averaging 14.2 points and 11.7 rebounds per game this season.
