Bargnani (hamstring) will play in Wednesday's season opener versus Chicago, Rod Boone of Newsday reports.

Analysis:

Bargnani will not face any minutes restrictions as he enters the 2015-16 season. However, given that he failed to participate in the preseason and acts as Brook Lopez's top backup, there probably won't be much room for him to see extended playing time.
