Bulls at Grizzlies picks and predictionsPrediction

Bulls 124, Grizzlies 118

Given that both teams don’t have much to play for down the stretch, go ahead and SKIP taking the Moneyline for either side.

Despite not having much confidence in either team, the lean here is to BET BULLS -4.5 (-102) on the road.

Aside from Chicago being 5-2 (ATS) over its last eight games, the Bulls are 15-12 ATS against Western Conference opponents. Meanwhile, Memphis is 4-6 ATS across its last 10 outings and a league-worst 7-18 ATS versus Eastern Conference foes.

Although neither squad is elite on defense and both are top-eight in pace, BET UNDER 245.5 (-110).

The Grizzlies and Bulls sit 22nd and 23rd in adjusted defensive rating (both at 117.2). However, both teams are dealing with a near-insurmountable amount of injuries and both are also 22nd/23rd in adjusted offensive rating.

In addition to Chicago being 3-9 to the Over with zero days of rest, Memphis is 10-11 to the Over as home underdogs.
