The Chicago Bulls have decided to play it safe with power forward Taj Gibson on Saturday, as he will not play against the Minnesota Timberwolves, reports Jerry Zgoda of the Minnesota Star-Tribune.

Gibson injured his ankle in Friday's contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He managed to return to the game, however, and finished with 10 points in 28 minutes of action.

Without Gibson, look for Pau Gasol and Nikola Mirotic to see more time in the frontcourt.
