Milwaukee Bucks vs Chicago Bulls Prediction & Picks, October 23, 2026

Tre Jones has been playing well lately, showing he can contribute a lot on both ends of the court. The Bucks let opponents shoot a lot of three-pointers and grab plenty of rebounds, which gives Jones a chance to rack up points and boards. He needs to combine his scoring with a few rebounds to reach over 11.5 total, and our numbers say he has a good shot at doing just that. The matchup against the Bucks could be tricky since they also force turnovers at a lower rate than other teams, meaning fewer chances for easy baskets. However, with both teams allowing similar rebounds, it could come down to how well Jones plays on the night. Expect a close game, but Jones has the potential to hit that mark.

Milwaukee Bucks vs Chicago Bulls: Jalen Smith Under 19.5 Pts + Rebs (+115)

Jalen Smith has been a solid player, but facing the Milwaukee Bucks is no easy task. The Bucks are known for letting opponents shoot a lot of three-pointers, which can lead to lower rebound numbers for big men like Smith. With the way the Bucks play, they also tend to grab a lot of boards, so it could be tough for him to find his rhythm. Both teams have been giving up a similar number of rebounds, but Smith will need to compete against a strong Bucks squad that defends well. Since he might not get as many scoring chances and rebounds, betting on him to score under 19.5 points and rebounds feels like a smart choice.

Milwaukee Bucks vs Chicago Bulls: Norman Powell Under 23.5 Pts + Rebs + Asts (+145)

Norman Powell has been solid, but he has a tough challenge against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Bucks allow a lot of three-point attempts, which might draw Powell into more shooting than rebounding or assisting. Plus, he averages 5.7 combined rebounds and assists at home, but that's still below the 23.5 mark we're looking at for this bet. The risk here is that Powell could have an exceptional game and exceed our pick, especially if he starts scoring like crazy. However, given the way Milwaukee plays and Powell's average numbers, betting on him to stay under 23.5 points, rebounds, and assists feels like a good choice.
