Tyrus Thomas apparently suffered a fracture in his forearm while doing pullups today during a weightlifting session. Not really sure how that happened, but I'll be sure to never do pullups again.

Thomas, whose option was not picked up by the Bulls, is going to miss 4 to 6 weeks due to the injury. Something you never want to have happen during a contract year.

0	Bad news for state of Tyrus Thomas' career, because the Bulls might be better off with rookie, Taj Gibson for the next several weeks. Tyrus has fallen in love with a jumper he can't make in hopes of impressing during a contract year.

Taj Gibson is a very sound ball player who doesn't chuck 18 footers up for no reason. To bad for Ty, good news for the Bulls.
