Phoenix Suns vs. Chicago Bulls Analysis
Phoenix Suns Performance Recap and Analysis
The Phoenix Suns come into this game with a ton of momentum after picking up a 14-point win over the Charlotte Hornets in their most recent game. That was also the debut of Kevin Durant, and they brought him in to help lead this team.
The NBA player stats for Durant continue to be impressive, and they should only get better now that he is in Phoenix. The NBA team stats for the Suns haven’t been as great as expected this year, but they have been dealing with injuries throughout the year.
Key Injuries
Now that Durant has made his debut with the Suns, this team doesn’t have any key injuries to worry about. Landry Shament does remain out of the lineup with an injury, but the Suns have all of their biggest stars available.
Betting Trends to Know
The Suns have gone 2-1-2 against the spread in their last five games, but they are 1-0 ATS when facing the Bulls this season. Phoenix should be better against the spread now that they have Kevin Durant on board.
Chicago Bulls Performance Recap and Analysis
The Chicago Bulls roster is loaded with some great players, but this team just hasn’t been living up to the hype this season. Chicago has gone just 29-34 on the year, and they are struggling to stay in the playoff race in the Eastern Conference.
DeMar DeRozan is leading the way with 25 points per game for the Bulls, and Zach LaVine can also take over a game on offense. The Bulls don’t always play well on the defensive end of the floor, and that is a big reason that they are out of the top eight in the East.
Key Injuries
One of the reasons that the Bulls haven’t played well this season is that they have been without point guard Lonzo Ball all year. Ball hasn’t been able to recover from a knee injury, and that has created a huge hole on this roster.
Betting Trends to Know
The Bulls have gone just 2-3 against the spread over their last five games, but they are a much better team on their home floor this season.
Phoenix Suns vs. Chicago Bulls Betting Picks
This should be one of the most interesting NBA matchups of the day, and that will make it hard when making Suns vs Bulls betting picks. Playing at home will give the Bulls a slight edge in this game, but it’s not going to be enough to win this one.
