Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #2 – Total Points Under 235 – 1.57.
It is possible that the Chicago Bulls will play this game without DeRozan. That’s a big loss, as Lonzo Ball and Tony Bradley won’t be able to help the Bulls. Given the Bulls’ recent road record, we have our doubts about their ultimate success. We think it’s better to favour the home side.
Derozan’s possible absence will significantly weaken the Bulls. Without him, a spectacular game will be very difficult. In this regard, we suggest looking at the total of less.
The Wizards’ five-game winning streak came to an abrupt end with a string of bad games. They suffered their third straight defeat. This time from the New Orleans Pelicans (112:132).
Notable for the Wizards’ performance was the play of Kristaps Porzingis. He notched a double-double with 23 points, 10 rebounds and 1 assist.
The series also includes away games against the Oklahoma City Thunder (110-127) and Milwaukee Bucks (113-123).

The Utah Jazz (126-118), Philadelphia 76ers (126-112), and Brooklyn Nets (121-112). Three consecutive wins for the Chicago Bulls. That’s been the Bulls’ positive streak in recent regular season games.
