CHICAGO (Ticker) -- Chicago Bulls forward Joakim Noah was diagnosed Friday with a left eye Hyphema and will likely be out five days pending the resolution of his symptoms.
The injury, which is caused by blood in the anterior chamber of the eye, stemmed from Noah being poked in the eye during Wednesday's practice.
The 23-year-old Noah averaged 6.6 points and 5.6 rebounds during his rookie campaign last season.
