Hawks vs. Bulls Prediction & Pick

Neither team has been playing great basketball lately, as the Hawks have lost six of their last eight while the Bulls are 6-10 over their last 16.

Atlanta has been solid at home this year, however, going 8-5 there so far. Chicago has struggled on the road, going 4-9 away from the Windy City.

With neither team showing a clear statistical edge, that could be the difference in what will likely be a close game. The Hawks also have the best player in this matchup in Trae Young, which gives them an advantage during crunch time as well.

Final Score Prediction: Hawks: 116 | Bulls: 114

Hawks vs. Bulls Best Bet

I'm not sure why the total is set at 235, as that seems way too high for this game. Neither team scores or allows more than 114 points per game, so it's not like these are two elite offenses or two elite defenses. Both teams rank top 10 in pace so the game should be fairly high-scoring, but 235 is just too many points for me.

Bet: Under 235 Points (-110)
