Gibson (ankle) will not play against the Celtics on Friday, the Chicago Tribune reports.

Analysis:

Gibson was sent home from Chicago's current road trip and won't likely have a legitimate chance to return until the Bulls play at home against the Mavericks on Tuesday. If that ultimately comes to fruition, it means that he'll be sidelined for the Bulls' next two games, including Friday against the Celtics.
