The Bulls experienced enough injury problems last season and throughout the preseason that it's time for them to catch a break.
The Bucks announced on Monday that star guard Michael Redd will miss at least two weeks with soreness in his surgically-repaired left knee. That means, of course, Redd will miss Tuesday night's game against the Bulls at the United Center.
The Bulls, like many teams, have had difficulty containing Redd in the past. Redd and Ben Gordon exchanged in a memorable shootout in March 2007 when they combined to score 100 points. Redd had 52 in a Bulls victory.
The Bulls are practicing at the Berto Center at noon with media access following.
