Chicago Bulls lose forward Nikola Mirotic to injury

The Chicago Bulls will be without forward Nikola Mirotic for tonight's playoff game at the Milwaukee Bucks.

The 24-year-old has a left knee injury and will not play a part in game three of the series.

Mirotic has returned to training and has been involved in shooting drills this week, but the game tonight has come too soon and he will hope to recover in time for game four two days later.

The Bulls lead the Bucks 2-0.
