<p>The NBA&#8217;s Chicago Bulls are missing nine players from their roster due to COVID-19 protocol, according to a report on Sunday, including stars Zach LeVine and Troy Brown, leaving only half of the team&#8217;s current roster available for Tuesday&#8217;s game with the Detroit Pistons.</p>
<p>&#8220;Under league rules, the Bulls need to have eight eligible players vs. the Pistons on Tuesday. There have been no Covid-related postponements in the NBA this season, but the Bulls outbreak &#8212; with LaVine and Troy Brown the latest &#8212; continues and postponements could be an option,&#8221; ESPN&#8217;s Adrian Wojnarowski tweeted Sunday.</p>
