Chicago Bulls vs Phoenix Suns Prediction and NBA Odds
Phoenix Suns are predicted to win tonight against the Chicago Bulls as per the latest Chicago Bulls vs Phoenix Suns Prediction and NBA Odds
The Chicago Bulls need to prepare themselves for a tough challenge as they are set to lock horns with the Phoenix Suns in their next fixture. With only 13 games to go before the playoffs, the Bulls can’t afford to continue the losing streak.
They have already lost the position in the top 4 of the Eastern Conference after the last game in which they faced a disappointing loss despite 58 points from Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan combined.
The Phoneix Suns will aim for their 4th straight win when they host the Bulls at the FootPrint Center Arena tonight. After a fantastic season so far, the Suns would like to continue the winning momentum before the big playoffs. The team coach Monty Williams stated about the team’s form after his side’s easy win over the Rockets. He said:
“These are the nights that you want to be as positive as you can because we have so many guys out. Yet, we have a standard of play that we want to live up to, so we never want to lower that standard.”
The Bulls need to work on their defense against the mighty Suns that has looked weak after the injury of Lonzo Ball. The Suns recently faced a setback by the injury of point guard Chris Paul. However, that should not be a big worry for them looking at the strength of their squad.
