Lauri Markkanen was initially questionable for Sunday’s game between the Chicago Bulls and the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 21-year-old Finn might be facing a hip injury, but his double-double in the Regular Season matchup made it look not so serious.

Cedi Osman’s (17pts, 8reb) and Ante Zizic’s (8pts, 14reb) team prevailed sending Markkanen’s side to its third straight defeat. However, the young forward posted a game-high 21 points including four made shots beyond the arc and grabbed 15 rebounds.
