The Chicago Bulls seek their third straight win on Saturday as they take on the Charlotte Hornets at the United Center.
The Bulls are 7-1 against the spread in their last 8 games against Eastern Conference teams.
Best Pick: The Bulls-2.5 points (-106)
Bonus Pick: 3-Leg Parlay That Pays $349 on $100 Bet
Current Form:
The Bulls posted back-to-back wins over the New Orleans Pelicans 134-118 and the Orlando Magic 121-114, improving their regular-season record to .500 at 17-17. Josh Giddey was sidelined in the last two games because of a hamstring injury. Despite the absence of their leading scorer, the Bulls have gotten key contributions from Tre Jones, Isaac Okoro and Matas Buzelis and Nikola Vucevic, who has been a stabilizing force in the frontcourt.
The Hornets have lost their last three games, including twice to the Milwaukee Bucks. On Friday, Charlotte lost for the second time in three days to Milwaukee in a heartbreaking result, 122-121. Kon Knueppel fired 26 points and Miles Bridges recorded 25, but the Hornets could still not protect a significant lead in the fourth quarter, conceding the game on an alley-oop dunk by Giannis Antetokounmpo from Kevin Porter Jr. with 4.7 seconds left on the clock. Charlotte dropped to 11-23 in the season.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Chicago Bulls Prediction
Fearless Forecast: The Bulls are my confident pick to win this game even without their do-it-all guard Josh Giddey. Tre Jones has proven to be a reliable fill-in for Giddey for the time being, running the Bulls’ offense at its full capacity. Again, the Bulls are fantastic against the spread as of late. They are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games against East teams.
Bonus Pick: Having said the Bulls’ recent success in the spread game, I believe they will win and cover -2.5 point spread in this match. I also pick these two teams to combine for 240+ points, going over the set total of 237.5 points. Both teams average above 115 points per game, and allow opponents to average roughly 120 points per game this season. A 3-leg parlay on FanDuel (Bulls moneyline, Bulls -2.5 games and Over 237.5 games) yields $349 payout on a $100 bet.
Our betting prediction for the Charlotte Hornets vs. the Chicago Bulls: The Bulls -2.5 points
