Chicago Bulls Betting Preview
The Chicago Bulls have been in fine form as they’ve won five of their last seven games overall, but they will be looking to bounce back in this one after having their four-game win streak halted by the Lakers in a 129-118 loss on Monday. Coby White led the team with 23 points and six assists on eight of 13 shooting, Ayo Dosunmu added 20 points off the bench, Josh Giddey tallied 19 points with seven assists while Nikola Vucevic chipped in with 18 points, 11 rebounds and five assists. As a team, the Bulls shot 52 percent from the field and 18 of 49 from the 3-point line but they had no answers to slow down the Lakers who scored 104 points through the first three quarters to put the Bulls behind by as many as 20 points.
Indiana Pacers Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Indiana Pacers have been struggling as they’ve lost five of their last seven games overall and they will be hoping for a better effort after getting thrashed by the Hawks in an ugly 132-116 road defeat on Monday. Pascal Siakam led the team with 26 points, nine rebounds and four assists, Aaron Nesmith added 18 points while TJ McConnell and Bennedict Mathurin each scored 16 points. As a team, the Pacers shot 46 percent from the field and 10 of 35 from the 3-point line as they set the tone with 38 points in the first quarter to take the early lead and they looked to be in full control when they led by 15 points midway through the third quarter. However, the Pacers went ice-cold and allowed the Pacers to close the third quarter on a 25-7 run and steal all the momentum.
Chicago v Indiana Free Prediction
The Bulls are still missing Zach Collins, Tre Jones and Emanuel Miller, while the Pacers are missing Tyrese Haliburton with Jarace Walker listed as questionable. The Bulls were on a roll before they got stopped in their tracks by the Lakers in a tough loss on Monday, but they are relatively healthy and open as favorites against the Pacers who laid an egg against the Hawks after the highs of taking down the Thunder in the previous game. You can make an argument for either side in what should be a close one, but I’ve been more impressed with the Bulls who are making a bit of a resurgence.
