Gibson (illness) will play Wednesday against the Hornets, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Analysis:

Despite sitting out Tuesday's practice, Gibson has been given the green light to play Wednesday, though he may be less than 100 percent. He missed Monday's blowout win over the Bucks, which allowed Nikola Mirotic to play 31 minutes. With Gibson back, Mirotic will likely see his workload reduced back into the 15-20 minute range.
