Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As we dive into the matchup between the Warriors and Bulls, Al Horford presents an intriguing opportunity for a player prop bet on his assists, specifically targeting the under at 3.5. Looking at Horford's recent performance, he's been averaging just 1.4 assists over his last five games, a significant dip from expectations. Even in home outings, where he's typically more productive, he's only managed two assists on average lately.The Bulls' defensive scheme has also been effective against big men like Horford, allowing only about four assists per game to opposing forwards. With an expected stat value of just 2.51, it's evident that Horford will struggle to hit that 3.5 mark, especially when he's only cleared it 10 out of his last 12 games. Given all this, the under feels like a solid move for Wednesday night.

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the Chicago Bulls face off against the Golden State Warriors, it's a good bet to back the Bulls to score over 100.5 points. The Bulls have been in red-hot form, consistently racking up high scores. Our model foresees them hitting an estimated 108.8 points in this game, well above the 100.5 threshold. On top of that, it's worth noting that the Warriors' defense has been a tad porous of late, giving the Bulls ample opportunity to surpass that total. The implied probability further backs this up, sitting at a strong 84.7%. So, while the Warriors may be tough on their home court, the Bulls' scoring prowess should shine through. This bet is chosen based on Chicago's high-scoring trend and Golden State's defensive vulnerabilities.

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

The Golden State Warriors are known to light up the scoreboard, but a wager on them scoring under 127.5 points against the Chicago Bulls would be a savvy pick. Recent performances point to a Warriors' offense that's slowing its roll. Our model predicts a total of 108.8 points for the Warrios, significantly south of the 127.5 mark. Warriors' recent scoring trends confirm this slowdown. Meanwhile, the Bulls have been showing defensive prowess, keeping their opponents' scoring within manageable bounds. It's true, the Warriors have the ability to explode offensively, but the combination of their slowed scoring pace and the Bulls' resilient defense leads us to see value in the under 127.5 bet. The implied probability of 84.0% further strengthens this reasoning. It's a game of numbers, and this time, they're pointing downwards for the Warriors' total.

Averaging 4.4 boards over his last five games, he's shown a consistent ability to crash the glass, especially in away matchups where he still manages to pull down about 4.2 rebounds per game. Against the Bulls, he's been particularly effective, grabbing an average of 4.6 rebounds in their recent encounters. With a perfect hit rate of 3-for-3 in his last three games, Jones seems to thrive on the road, making this line of 2.5 feel like a gift. He's not only finding ways to contribute offensively, but he's also stepping up defensively when it counts. Considering the stakes against a team like Golden State, expect Jones to bring his A-game and easily surpass that 2.5 mark.
