Bulls Need Wade Healthy for Playoff Push

From a health perspective, Wade is coming off one of his best seasons in years. He appeared in 74 regular-season games for the Miami Heat last year, his most since 2010-11. Wade has appeared in 48 of the Bulls' 54 games this season.

Wade's durability in 2015-16 perhaps gave the Bulls more comfort in offering him a two-year, $47 million deal this past summer. So far, the contract is paying off for the most part, with Wade averaging 19.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists a night.

As a whole, though, the Bulls have fallen back to earth after an encouraging start. Wade's injury will continue that slide should he miss an extended period of time.
