Bulls vs. Detroit Pistons at the United Center, 7 p.m. Wednesday

TV:

NBC Sports Chicago

Radio:

WIND 670-AM

Outlook:

As the Bulls wrap-up the regular season, the biggest question about this one might be whether this is Detroit coach Stan Van Gundy's last game. The Pistons (38-43) won't make the playoffs, so it's not clear how motivated they'll be to help the Bulls' draft position. PF Blake Griffin (19.8 ppg) won't play due to an ankle injury and C Andre Drummond (16.0 rebounds) is listed as doubtful. SG Reggie Bullock, the team's fourth-leading scorer, is out with a knee injury, leaving point guards Reggie Jackson (14.8 ppg) and Ish Smith (10.9) as the highest-scorers likely to play. The Bulls are 1-2 against the Pistons, winning 107-105 at the UC on Jan. 13, which was Zach Lavine's season debut.
