The Chicago Bulls will try to overcome a generous 14.5-point handicap against the Boston Celtics on Monday.
Current Form:
The Boston Celtics defeated the defending NBA champion, the New York Knicks, 107-103, to improve their record to 1-1. After scoring 13 points on 26% shooting in a 121-113 loss to the Detroit Pistons, Jayson Tatum erupted for 36 points, 9 rebounds, and 7 assists in the win over their Atlantic Division rivals.
The Chicago Bulls ran out of steam in their late rally against the Washington Wizards, 120-124. Rookie Caleb Wilson dropped 30 points on 10-for-24 shooting and grabbed 14 rebounds, while Matas Buzelis and Norman Powell added 21 and 18 points, respectively.

The Matchup: The Celtics have dominated their recent head-to-head series with the Bulls, winning 8 of their last 10 games. However, this new-look Bulls team appears to have everything it needs to turn this latest meeting into a competitive duel.

Our Boston Celtics vs Chicago Bulls Prediction
The Difference Maker: The Bulls will continue to heavily rely on Caleb Wilson and Matas Buzelis. Chicago might be a year away from becoming a major force in the Eastern Conference, but they are building a roster of long, athletic players who can impact both ends of the court.
What to Expect: The Celtics take the win, but the Bulls will go toe-to-toe with Boston this time. Chicago should easily beat the +14-point line with another big night from Wilson and Buzelis, who are being groomed as the franchise’s cornerstones.
Moreover, the Celtics don’t look like the team that used to blow by weaker teams in the past two years. They still have weapons in Jayson Tatum, Paul George, and Derrick White, but the bench isn't as deep as it used to be.
Fearless Forecast: The Celtics 117, the Bulls 110
Our betting prediction for the Chicago Bulls vs. the Boston Celtics: The Bulls +14.5 points
