Nets at Bulls 11/16/19 - NBA Picks & Predictions

Last Updated: 11/15/2019 at 11:44 PM ET

The Saturday NBA schedule will tip-off with a matchup between the Brooklyn Nets and the Chicago Bulls from the United Center. The Nets (4-7) have dropped three straight games and are allowing 119.5 points on average. On Thursday, Brooklyn was unable to protect a 12-point halftime lead during a 101-93 road loss against Denver.

Jarrett Allen and Kyrie Irving scored 17 points apiece on a combined 15-for-30 shooting effort to lead Brooklyn. Taurean Prince added 12 points and eight rebounds in a losing effort for the Nets.

The Chicago Bulls have dropped eight of their first 12 games, but are excited to have rookie G Coby White (13.7 ppg) in the fold. On Thursday, White became the youngest player in NBA history to hit five three-pointers in consecutive games during a 124-115 road loss against Milwaukee. The Bulls connected on 18-for-43 from long range in defeat.

Coby White led six Chicago players in double figures with 26 points in 35 minutes off the bench. Zach LaVine added 25 points and seven assists for the Bulls.

Brooklyn G Kyrie Irving (right shoulder impingement) is being listed as questionable for this contest. These two teams rank near the middle of the pack in defensive efficiency, so the over is worth a look. The stronger play is on Chicago to take care of a road-weary Brooklyn squad. Final Score Prediction, Chicago Bulls win and cover ATS 121-113.
