Bulls vs. Pistons Public Betting: Bettors Laying Points
Our NBA Public Betting Information page indicates that 66% of public bettors are currently backing the Pistons when it comes to the spread. This information is subject to change throughout the day, however, so be sure to check the link so you’re receiving the most up-to-date public betting data.
LaVine doubtful to face Pistons
Zach LaVine (personal) is doubtful for Sunday’s game against Detroit. LaVine has missed the first two games of Chicago’s road trip for personal reasons and appears likely also to miss the finale. Lonzo Ball, whose minutes limit was raised to 28 minutes on Friday, will remain in the starting lineup as long as LaVine is out. After Sunday, the Bulls will host the Heat on Tuesday before visiting Minnesota the following night.
Cunningham scores over 30 again
Cade Cunningham had 40 points (17-of-30 FGs), six rebounds, four assists, one steal and three 3-pointers in the Pistons’ 117-102 victory over the Mavericks on Friday. One day after making his first All-Star team, Pistons superstar Cade Cunningham went off against the Mavericks. The 23-year-old point guard had 40 points on 30 shots. He’s now scored at least 30 points in four of his last six games. Cunningham will continue to be the Pistons’ do-it-all superstar. The question remains if Detroit’s front office can get him some outside help before the trade deadline.
Bulls vs. Pistons NBA Prediction:
Take Chicago. The Bulls have won eight out of the last 10 meetings between these two teams straight up. The last time the Bulls beat the Pistons was back in November as a 4-point road dog in a 122-112 victory. Chicago is also 6-3-1 against the spread in the last 10 meetings between these two teams. The Bulls have struggled of late, but the Pistons enter play having lost three of their last four games both straight up and at the window.
Bulls vs. Pistons Betting Prediction: CHICAGO BULLS +5
