Chicago Bulls Preview
The Bulls have been fairly disappointing in March. Although key pieces like Alex Caruso and Patrick Williams have returned to the rotation, Chicago has struggled to remain top five in the East.
Coming off a much-needed win against the Cavaliers, the Bulls need to keep up their good form to climb up the standings.
While their struggles can be attributed to inconsistent performances, Bulls superstar DeMar DeRozan has been a bit out of form, which hasn't helped their cause.
DeRozan is averaging 24 points per game in his last 10 games. That is a drastic drop off, considering the form he was in just before the All-Star break. With Chicago's offensive rating dropping to 109.6 in March, they need to turn things around and build on their latest win.
Chicago Bulls Predicted Lineup
G - Alex Caruso | G - Zach LaVine | F - DeMar DeRozan | F - Javonte Green | C - Nikola Vucevic.
New York Knicks Preview
Although the Knicks haven't played to their potential for most of the season, their recent stretch of outings has given fans something to be excited about. They have impressed during their ongoing three-game winning streak..
In the win against the Pistons, the Knicks saw solid contributions from RJ Barrett and Julius Randle, who combined for 41 points.
Their effort was complemented by 18 points apiece from Alec Burks and Immanuel Quickley as New York held off a late-game push by the Pistons.
The Knicks may face some difficulties against the Bulls at home on the second night of a back-to-back. However, considering that their starters didn't play extensive minutes in the last game, New York has a relatively less fatigued roster.
New York Knicks Predicted Lineup
G - Alec Burks | G - RJ Barrett | F - Evan Fournier | F - Julius Randle | C - Mitchell Robinson.
Chicago Bulls vs New York Knicks Betting Odds & Spreads
The oddsmakers have favored the Bulls to win this matchup primarily because of their superior record.
Although Chicago hasn't fared well in their recent outings and have struggled to win on the road, their away record of 17-21 trumps New York's home record of 15-21. Fatigue could also be a factor as they play the Bulls on the second night of a back-to-back.
