The Brooklyn Nets travel to Chicago, where they will seek back-to-back NBA victories over the Bulls. Six games separate the two teams in the Eastern Conference, with the Bulls in ninth, having the advantage over their 13th-place visitors. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Bulls have lacked consistency and, thus far, have lost more games than they have won. Losing to the Nets, who were on a four-match skid, highlights the sort of season Billy Donovan’s men are having.
Away in Brooklyn last time out, the Bulls had no player score more than 19 points. Chicago, which has won just two of its last seven games, is three games below .500 with 22 losses.
The Nets have won both times they have been up against the Bulls this season. Another win and they win this regular-season series with a game to spare. Jordi Fernandez’s men were in desperate need of a win when they hosted the Bulls.
They had lost five consecutive fixtures and had won just once in nine outings. Michael Porter Jr. led his team to the win, scoring 26 points, with Noah Clowney putting up 23 points and 11 boards.
Porter Jr., however, will not be active in Chicago, as he is granted rest and is one of four players who will miss this match. The Nets have lost 27 of 39 matches.
