Kirk Hinrich (quad) will not be ready to play Thursday against the Lakers, ESPN Chicago reports.

Hinrich (quad) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Lakers, ESPN Chicago's Nick Friedell reports.

Analysis:

Hinrich continues to deal with a quad injury, which has kept him out of each of the last five games. Even with a couple of days off before Thursday's game, the Bulls aren't confident that Hinrich will be ready, which is an indication that he could stand to miss additional time beyond Thursday's contest.
