The Nets will be without Trendon Watford, Bojan Bogdanovic and Day’Ron Sharpe. The Bulls will be without Lonzo Ball, while Jalen Smith and Zach LaVine are questionable.

Why the Chicago Bulls will win

  • The underdogs have won four of the Bulls’ last five games at Barclays Center.
  • The Nets have lost 11 of their last 12 games against teams that held a winning record.
  • The Nets have failed to cover the spread in nine of their last 10 games after winning as underdogs.
  • The Bulls have covered the spread in six of their last seven games against Eastern Conference opponents.

Total Points Facts

  • Six of the Bulls’ last seven road games have gone OVER the total points line.
  • Eight of the Nets’ last 10 games as favorites against the Bulls have gone UNDER the total points line.

Brooklyn Nets vs Chicago Bulls Prediction

This line likely has to do with the Zach LaVine injury and oddsmakers leaning toward him not playing. Still, the Bulls are the better team than the Nets, and they’re coming off wins over playoff teams in the Magic and Grizzlies. It’s hard to see the Brooklyn Nets as favorites against anybody, as this is one of the worst teams in the league and a club that’s stacking up draft picks to win in the future. Whether LaVine plays or not, the Bulls should win this Game. I’ll grab the free bucket.
