Chicago Bulls forward Jalen Smith exited Wednesday’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers after suffering a right calf injury in the first quarter, the team announced.

Smith, 26, was replaced by Guerschon Yabusele with 5:57 in the first quarter. Before exiting, Smith recorded one rebound and a block in six minutes of work.

Because Smith was ruled out in the first half, DraftKings’ new Early Exit program is in effect. Anyone who made a single bet on Smith will receive cash credits. As for parlays, the remaining legs of your parlay will remain open, and the odds of your parlay will be recalculated excluding the leg that qualifies for Early Exit.

The 76ers led the Bulls, 38–26, at the end of the first quarter.
