Bulls' Nikola Mirotic: Indicates knee injury isn't serious

Mirotic doesn't believe the right knee injury he suffered while playing for Spain in the 2016 Summer Olympics is anything serious, Kelly Dwyer of Yahoo! Sports reports.

Analysis:

Mirotic hurt the knee in a collision during the Spanish team's bronze-medal winning performance Sunday against Australia, but after briefly leaving the contest, he was able to return minutes later. After the win, Mirotic downplayed the severity of the ailment, so it doesn't seem he's at risk of being unavailable when the Bulls open training camp in the fall. The 25-year-old is expected to compete with Taj Gibson in camp for the starting power forward role.
