When the Chicago Bulls come to town, all eyes should be on Joel Embiid, especially with the line set at just 19.5 points. The big man has been a force lately, averaging an impressive 29 points in his last five games and an even more jaw-dropping 34 at home. Against the Bulls, he's been even more dominant, posting an average of 30.6 points in their last five encounters and 33.8 when playing at the Wells Fargo Center.With a perfect hit rate of 20 for 20 over his last games and 13 for 13 at home, it's clear that Embiid thrives in these matchups. The implied probability of 69.9% reflects what we already know: when he's on the court, he scores. Expect him to not just meet but exceed expectations against a Chicago defense that hasn't shown the capacity to contain him. Lock in that Over.

Josh Giddey (Chicago Bulls) Under 10.5 Assists (-114)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

In the upcoming matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers, targeting Josh Giddey for under 10.5 assists could be a savvy move. Sure, he's been racking up assists lately, averaging 11.6 over his last five games. But context is key here. When Giddey hits the road, his numbers dip slightly, with just 8.71 expected assists in this matchup. The Sixers are particularly stingy against playmakers, limiting opponents to an average of 5.5 assists in their last five meetings with Giddey. Remember, he's thrived against them at home, but on the road, he's only converted that to 4 assists in his last outing against them. With a solid hit rate of 15 out of his last 20 games, including 4 of 6 away, the odds suggest he might just fall short of that 10.5 mark this time. Trust the numbers; the under has a compelling narrative here.

Leonard Miller (Chicago Bulls) Under 5.5 Rebounds (-132)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When it comes to Leonard Miller's rebounding in the upcoming showdown against the 76ers, the smart play is to take the under on 5.5. The trend is clear: Miller has consistently struggled on the boards, hitting this mark only 4.13 times on average, a significant dip below our target. Looking at his recent form, he's hit the under in 14 of his last 20 games, and even more telling, when playing away, that number climbs to 16 out of 20. The 76ers are also formidable in the paint, boasting a strong rebounding presence that could further complicate his chances. With an implied probability of 56.8% backing this bet, it feels like a solid opportunity to capitalize on Miller's recent struggles. As the game unfolds, expect him to find it tough to crack that 5.5 barrier against a determined Philly squad.
