The Golden State Warriors are 12th in the Western Conference with a 17-20 record. They are only 6-9 on the road and have lost 6 of the last 10 games. The Warriors are going to Chicago with a two-game losing streak. They lost by 15 to the Toronto Raptors at home, and then they were blown away 141-105 against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Warriors are fourth in the league when it comes to three-point shooting, with 40.1% from behind the arc. Steph Curry is the best player on the Warriors team, averaging 26.7 points and 4.7 assists per game.
Is Chicago going into a rebuilding mode?
The Chicago Bulls have picked up their game-winning streak in the last three and are currently in 9th place in the Eastern Conference with an 18-21 record. They play significantly better at home, where they are 13–9. The Bulls have won the last two games in overtime against the Hornets and the Rockets. The Bulls are one of the worst shooting teams in the league, being ranked 28th in the league with 45.5% shooting from the field. DeMar DeRozan is the best player on the Bulls team, averaging 22 points and 5.4 assists per game.
Betting Trends
The Warriors are 8-2 ATS in the last 10 games against the Bulls. Chicago is 2-5 ATS in the last 7 game splayed on Friday and 4-10 ATS in the last 14 games played on Friday at home.
Player to watch
Zach LaVine has been under the radar for the Chicago Bulls this season and most of the time that has been the case for the wrong reasons. He has had a lot of personal issues with the Bulls front office and he will most likely be moved before the trade deadline.
Injury Reports
Torey Craig and Lonzo Ball are out for the Bulls. The Warriors will not count on Gary Payton II, Chris Paul and Draymond Green.
Prediction and Conclusion
The Chicago Bulls had a difficult start to the season. However, they managed to bounce back in the last week, winning the last three games. The Warriors had many ups and downs during the season, and things are still difficult for Steve Kerr. Draymond Green is still out, and Chris Paul suffered a broken hand. The Bulls are a three-point favorite going into this game, and the Warriors will need to bounce back. Steph Curry has scored a total of 24 points in the last two games for the Warriors, and he is expected to step up tonight and will most likely cover the spread.
