Omer Asik will be out due to arthritis condition

The Chicago Bulls announced Saturday that center Omer Asik will be out indefinitely due to an arthritic condition that developed over the summer.

The Bulls acquired Asik when they traded Nikola Mirotic to the New Orleans Pelicans in February.

Asik, 32, began his career with the Bulls in 2010 and spent his first two seasons in Chicago before moving on to stints with the Houston Rockets and Pelicans.

For his career, Asik has averaged 5.3 points and 7.1 rebounds over 471 games.
