Bulls at Jazz picks and predictions
Prediction
Bulls 115, Jazz 109
Moneyline
LEAN BULLS (-194).
Chicago is the slightly hotter team at 2-1 in its last 3 games, while Utah is only 1-3 in its last 4. The Bulls have also won 3 straight against the Jazz and are 4-1 in the last 5 meetings, including a 114-107 victory the last time they met in Salt Lake City Nov. 28, 2022.
This is only a lean because Utah is 6-4 in the last 10 meetings and 19-11 at home this season.
Against the spread
PASS.
Chicago should cover -5 (-108), but the Bulls’ odds are stronger on the moneyline, and I am not a fan of doubling down on bets for a team. Bet on the moneyline and/or total instead.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 224.5 (-110).
The Under has hit in back-to-back outings for Chicago and is 4-1 in the Bulls’ last 5 games.
For Utah, the Under is 4-2 in its last 6 games overall and 2-1 in its last 3 at home. The Under has also hit in 2 of the last 3 Chicago-Utah matchups in Salt Lake City.
This is only a lean because the Over has been slightly safer for both teams this season.
