NBA's official injury report 

The Wizards come into the game 1-0 after defeating the Indiana Pacers in their first game by a score of 114-107.  

They were led by Bradley Beal, who had 23 points on 9/17 shooting from the field. 

The Wizards have an intriguing roster with Beal, Kyle Kuzma and Kristaps Porzingis. 

If all goes well, they could compete for a play-in tournament spot. 

Beal is a three-time NBA All-Star, Porzingis made the All-Star Game in 2018, and Kuzma is an NBA Champion. 

The rest of the roster will have to step up and complement those three players. 

As for the Bulls, they also come into the night with a 1-0 record. 

In their first game, they pulled off a massive upset on the road over the Miami Heat. 

They won the game by a score of 116-108, and DeMar DeRozan went off for 37 points, six rebounds and nine assists. 

This should be a good matchup between two teams who can score the ball. 

Last season, the Wizards missed the NBA Playoffs, while the Bulls lost in the first round.
