Chicago Bulls rookie forward Caleb Wilson fractured his hand during Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs and will miss four-to-six weeks, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania.

Wilson appeared to suffer the injury early in the third quarter while guarding Victor Wembanyama, jamming his right hand against the Spurs star's elbow as he tried to make a play on the ball.

Chicago selected Wilson out of North Carolina with the fourth pick in this year's draft.

The 20-year-old is averaging 18.9 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.8 steals in 10 starts this season. He's also hitting a team-high 6.8 field goals per game on 42% shooting.
