Chicago Bulls forward Zach LaVine will miss the remainder of the season with a right foot injury, the team announced Saturday.

The Bulls said that LaVine, a two-time All-Star, will have surgery next week after consulting with the team's training and medical staff. He is expected to be out 4-6 months.

The 28-year-old LaVine has not played since Jan. 18 because of an ankle injury, missing the last six games for Chicago after sitting out 17 games earlier this season, due to the lingering foot problem.

The Bulls are 23-26 and sit in 9th place in the Eastern Conference standings entering Saturday.

LaVine has appeared in 25 games this season, averaging 19.5 points, 5.2 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game. He is in the second season of a five-year $215.16 million contract he signed with the Bulls.

He is set to make $43 million in the 2024-25 season.
