ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that Mirotic has a fractured bone in his face.

In practice scuffle with Bobby Portis in Bulls practice, Nikola Mirotic suffered a fractured bone in his face, league source tells ESPN.

Additionally, NBC Sports Chicago's Vincent Goodwill is reporting that Mirotic was punched in the face by Portis and is also under evaluation for a possible concussion.

Apparently there was some pushing and shoving and Mirotic was punched by Portis. Mirotic is being evaluated for a concussion

At this time there are no further details at this time, and it's certainly not the news Chicago fans would want to hear leading up to the start of the NBA season.

CBS Sports will continue updating this breaking news story as necessary.

[Mr KLC]

Gonna be a long winter in Chicago.

[JerseyGodFather]

Where did Portis play college hoops at? Was it Cincy or Louisville?

[Cuse0323]

Got that ass whooped. Don't mess with them Arkansas boys.

[IBetYou]

Void his contract.

[shadymcgrady]

Portis gone, mirotic out. Easy pave for lauri markannen

[IBetYou]

Good thing for the Bulls is they have Markkanen. When he represented his country at the Eurobasket this past summer his coach compared him to Nowitzki ...not any coach, but the former German NT coach that had Nowitzki at the same age. Rookie of the year? hmmm

[IBetYou]

beat me to it

[funnyb25]

Where did Portis play college hoops at? Was it Cincy or Louisville?

Close. Arkansas

[JerseyGodFather]

just snatched Markkanen in my fantasy league

[IBetYou]

You with 90% of the league on that pick then

[Plaza23]

Couldn't criminal charges be filed? You wouldn't be able to get away with that if you were working in an office and broke another employee's face.

Yes but Mirotic has to file...pretty sure since they are teammates...no charges will be brought

[IBetYou]

Of course he can - and should - file charges. Or he can rehab and then cheap shot the fvker right back. I expect they trade Portis or void his contract. I understand it's a competitive environment, but you don't read about players breaking teammate's faces often/ ever. Thuggery.

[jjgold]

I would terminate other guys contract

Never fails ghetto guy trying to commit murder

#sick of them really and throw him out of league

[bosigga]

Maybe Lauri Markkanen instigated this...


Slipped a couple of F U notes in Bobby's locker. Signed, Nikola.

That crafty Finn

[KVB]

This is fukkin ridiculous.

[Notorious_Donk]

Chicago thugs

[milwaukee mike]

first gordon hayward, now mirotic

we'll be down to single digits of white guys in the nba soon

[TheChamp1]

Of course the brother escalates it to true violence.

They wonder why whites and blacks are treated and handled differently by cops.

Because blacks and whites are just different types of humans.

Plain and simple.

[jjgold]

Champ tremendous

Some of the most horrible crimes in America have been committed by white men (most recent Las Vegas shooting), but you don't see white police officers shooting unarmed white men in the back. Do you know why? It's because white people have "white privilege". In white america the dominant society doesn't do bad things to you for having white skin.

the next time i rob someone, walk down the middle of the street drunk, and then reach for a cop's gun, i will fully expect to be shot no matter what color i am

[jjgold]

Yes many are not all

blacks are animals

[mtofell]

I'm having flashbacks to the "Jail Blazers" teams of 10-15 years ago:

http://articles.latimes.com/2003/apr...s/sp-nbanotes4

The word from people close to the team was that Z Bo had to go hideout at Dale Davis' house since Patterson said he was going to find him and kill him.

Yeah, a long season ahead for CHI.

[jjgold]

Guys should be in jail
For this

[IBetYou]

8 game suspension. Unreal. Mirotic is out longer than this!

More unarmed whites are shot by police than unarmed blacks, despite blacks having a far higher rate of crime. STFU about white privilege. If you want to talk about white people having a more positive impression from the general public, that has been earned over time by being productive citizens. Blacks don't get that privilege until they get in line with the rest of society. Until they get off welfare, stop having babies out of wedlock, and stop killing each other in the streets, then the rest of society is going to look at them violent ghetto baboons. And rightly so.

"The video starts with the deputy ordering 22-year-old Yaroub Assad to the ground. Assad complies for a moment, then springs back up and running towards a car."

yet the black lady filming says if he was black he would have been shot, yaroub assad sure sounds like a white name

Harsh, but sometimes the truth is harsh.

[jjgold]

It was good footage know most of these the cop should not shoot like this case the guy basically cannot do anything
