Bulls' Dwyane Wade: Game-time call Wednesday vs. Magic

Coach Fred Hoiberg said that Wade (thigh) will be a game-time decision for Wednesday's tilt with the Magic, ESPN.com's Nick Friedell reports.

Analysis:

Wade was able to take part in portions of practice Tuesday, an encouraging development after a thigh injury prevented him from suiting up in Monday's loss to the Pistons. In recognition of Wade's age and injury history, Hoiberg said that he wanted to act cautiously with the veteran, so if Wade fails to fully participate in morning shootaround Wednesday, he could be held out of another contest. Paul Zipser entered the starting lineup in Wade's stead Monday, providing four points, four rebounds, one assist and one block in 31 minutes.
