Why the Bulls can cover
The Bulls are coming off a 112-99 win over the Clippers on Monday to snap a five-game losing streak. Zach LaVine scored 35 points in the win and has been one of the NBA’s leading scorers in calendar year 2025, averaging 29.2 points per game in January. The 29-year-old scored 30-plus points in seven of 11 games in January and shot 54.3% from the field, including 45.8% on 3-pointers with three 3-pointers per game.
The Bulls are the No. 5 scoring team in the league, averaging 117.1 points per game, so creating offense hasn’t been their problem. However, Chicago has the second-worst scoring defense (120.0 points per game), but is coming off holding a team to less than 100 points for the third time this season. The Bulls play at the third-fastest pace in the league compared to the Warriors who rank 15th in pace, so if Chicago can speed up Golden State, they could come away with the win. Guards Ayo Dosunmu (calf) and Coby White (ankle) are questionable as they will provide a boost if active. See which team to choose here.
Why the Warriors can cover
The Warriors have lost two straight games, but they came against strong competition in the Boston Celtics and Sacramento Kings, and Golden State was coming off back-to-back wins before the two-game skid. Stephen Curry is having his best scoring month of the season, averaging 24.3 points in nine games in January to increase his season average to 22.6 points per game. The 10-time All-Star remains an elite NBA talent even in his 16th season, and the all-time 3-point leader is shooting 40.7% from beyond the arc, including 42.4% this month.
Trayce Jackson-Davis, a second-round pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, has played an important role in recent games with Draymond Green (calf) out. The 6-foot-9 forward has at least 10 rebounds in four of his last seven games, including two 15-rebound performances in his last four games. Andrew Wiggins scored 25 points against the Kings on Wednesday and is averaging 17 points per game this season. Wiggins has scored at least 20 points in four of his last five games to provide a reliable No. 2 scoring option next to Curry. See which team to choose here.
