Jimmy Butler: (Elbow) Could Miss 3-4 Weeks

Butler could miss three-to-four weeks with a sprained elbow, but he will not require surgery, Yahoo! Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

Analysis:

The bad news continues to pour in where the Bulls are concerned, as Derrick Rose and Taj Gibson are also sidelined with injuries. The Bulls hedged compared to Wojnarowski's report, saying Butler could miss three-to-six weeks, but Wojnarowski's sources are usually incredibly accurate so that should be the working timetable. Look for Tony Snell, Mike Dunleavy and Doug McDermott to see increased roles while Butler is out, with Snell being the primary target among fantasy owners.
