Bulls' Cristiano Felicio: Out with bruised back Wednesday

Felicio is dealing with a bruised lower back and has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pistons, Nick Friedell of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

Felicio suffered the injury in Tuesday's game against the Raptors and it's giving him enough discomfort to keep him on the sidelines. It's a tough blow for the Bulls, as Robin Lopez is also out because of a suspension stemming from his recent ejection on Tuesday. That allows Joffrey Lauvergne to jump in the starting lineup and considering he's one of the only true bigs left on the roster, he should be in line for a heavy workload Wednesday.
