Chicago Bulls vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction

The Chicago Bulls didn’t look great in their opener and now go on the road to play an even better team. I said in my first Milwaukee Bucks write-up that they’re a team that could come out strong out of the gate. Lillard is in better shape this season and Antetokounmpo is healthy. The Bucks feel like a team that everybody has forgotten about, but there’s a potential sleeping giant. The Bulls just don’t inspire much confidence at the moment and no Ball doesn’t help as it’s just one less body. Give me the Bucks by double digits at home.
