Chicago Bulls vs New Orleans Pelicans Betting Preview

The Chicago Bulls are set to face off against the New Orleans Pelicans at the Smoothie King Center this Wednesday night at 8:00 PM ET. The Pelicans, despite their recent struggles, are favored with a spread of -6.5 and a moneyline of -245. This gives them an implied win probability of 68%. On the other hand, the Bulls enter as underdogs with a moneyline of +205, translating to an implied win probability of 32%.

The Bulls have been relatively strong on the road, winning 12 of their last 20 away games. This could make them a sneaky pick for those looking to capitalize on their recent form. Meanwhile, the Pelicans are in a slump, having dropped their last four games. This losing streak might raise questions about their ability to cover the spread, especially against a Bulls team that's been competitive away from home.

For those interested in player props, keep an eye on Dejounte Murray's Points, Rebounds, and Assists market. This has been the most popular prop bet leading up to the game. The line opened at 33.5 and has since moved up to 36.5, suggesting that sharp bettors are leaning towards the over. This shift indicates confidence in Murray's ability to fill the stat sheet against the Pelicans.

With the Pelicans looking to snap their losing streak and the Bulls aiming to continue their road success, this matchup promises to be an intriguing contest for both fans and bettors. The dynamics at play offer potential value, especially for those considering the Bulls' recent performance and the Pelicans' current form.
