It's always a bit dangerous to wager on a team right after a long winning streak was just snapped as New York's was Monday, but the Knicks are clearly better than the Bulls, are at home (with fans) and will apparently welcome back key reserve Alec Burks from COVID protocols. Chicago burned me big in Miami on Monday, but that was mostly a fluke and the Bulls remain without Zach LaVine. They may not reach 100 points against that top-ranked New York defense and former Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau.

The Bulls pulled off a surprising win on the road against the Heat on Monday despite playing without Zach LaVine (COVID-19). They are in a tough spot to try and earn another win here against the Knicks, who had their nine-game winning streak snapped by the Suns on Monday. Despite that loss, the Knicks are 21-11 at home and have an identical 21-11 record ATS at home. With LaVine still out for the Bulls, I expect the Knicks to get back on the winning track here, while also covering along the way.
