Bulls' Dwyane Wade: Ruled out vs. Raptors

Wade (wrist) won't play Tuesday against the Raptors, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Analysis:

As expected, Wade will miss a second straight game as he continues to nurse soreness in both wrists following a hard fall in Friday's loss to the Suns. The good news for the Bulls is that X-rays on Wade's wrists came back negative, and while the team could opt to hold him out Thursday against the Celtics, he'll have extended time off to recover with the All-Star break coming over the weekend. On another positive note, Jimmy Butler (heel) has been upgraded to probable Tuesday, so it looks as though the Bulls will have their top playmaker back in the fold.
