Collin Sexton has been ruled out of Sunday’s game against the Kings. The Bulls guard suffered a left lower leg contusion, according to a report from Joel Lorenzi of The Athletic.
Sexton’s Strong Performance Cut Short
Sexton exited the game at the end of the third quarter. Before the injury, Sexton had an impressive performance. He logged 28 points, shooting 9-12 from the field, including 7-9 from three-point range, and 3-4 from the free-throw line. He also recorded three assists and two rebounds in 22 minutes off the bench.
Career-High Three-Pointers
The seven three-pointers Sexton made marked a new career high for him. It was a significant contribution in a relatively short amount of playing time.
Dillingham Could See Increased Minutes
If Sexton is forced to miss further time due to the injury, Rob Dillingham could potentially see an increase in playing time. Dillingham may be in line for extra run if Sexton’s injury keeps him sidelined.
Sexton’s condition will need to be monitored to determine the extent of the injury and potential recovery timeline.
