The Nets come into this game after a 122-119 overtime win at the Washington Wizards on Wednesday that featured a high-scoring duel between Cam Thomas (38 points) and Jordan Poole (38 points). Thanks to the effort of Thomas, Dennis Schroder, and Nic Claxton, Brooklyn was able to win back-to-back games for the first time in almost a month.
The Bulls enter this matchup following a 125-99 win against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday in which DeMar DeRozan led the team in scoring with 27 points to end its three-game losing streak. Center Nikola Vucevic also put up 22 points and 12 rebounds in a total team effort by Chicago as all five starters scored in double figures while being the first team to hold the Pacers to under 100 points in a game this season.
This game can be seen locally on YES Network (Nets) and NBC Sports Chicago (Bulls).
Nets: OUT: Keita Bates-Diop (tibia), Cam Johnson (toe), Ben Simmons (back), and Dariq Whitehead (shin). PROBABLE: Noah Clowney (back) and Dennis Smith Jr. (hip). Bulls: OUT: Lonzo Ball (knee), Zach LaVine (foot), Julian Phillips (foot), and Patrick Williams (foot). PROBABLE: Alex Caruso (ankle) and Ayo Dosunmu (illness). The Nets have won back-to-back games for the first time in almost a month so that should show how tough things have been for Brooklyn to string together wins. After beating the Toronto Raptors and Washington Wizards, the Nets appear to be hitting their stride, but the Bulls are one of their more formidable opponents. This should be a close game so take Brooklyn against the spread. While this game should be closer than the spread indicates, the Bulls are more likely to emerge from this game victorious than the Nets are. Despite losing Zach LaVine to foot surgery, Chicago has remained afloat thanks to the play of players like Coby White so take the Bulls’ money-line. The Nets and Bulls rank in the bottom half of the NBA in offensive rating, defensive rating, and in pace so these two teams don’t really have much of a difference between the two which is why the past two meetings between the squads this season have been pretty contested. Take the over.
