Lakers' Julius Randle: Probable vs. Bulls on Wednesday

Randle (hip) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Analysis:

Randle returned to action Tuesday against the Pelicans, recording a double-double after missing the previous three games with the hip injury. The probable designation Wednesday is likely precautionary, and the expectation is that Randle will play on the second night of the back-to-back set. He could even see his playing time expand after logging only 22 minutes Tuesday.
