The Raptors are entering this game with a 30-21 record overall this season and they are 14-11 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game off a win against the Utah Jazz, but this is also the 2nd game of a back-to-back for them with their game against the Minnesota Timberwolves still to be played on Wednesday night.

The current betting odds have the Bulls listed as a 9.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Bulls haven't looked good in their games this season with their 24-27 record overall which has them in the bottom half of the East. They haven't been a great road team either with their 9-16 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Raptors have looked good in their games this season with their 30-21 record overall which has them in the top half of the East. They have looked good on their home court too with their 14-11 home record this season. The Raptors have been a big surprise in the East this season as they look like a competitive team this year and they have looked good lately too. They are 6-4 in their last 10 games and they are off a win over the Jazz in their last one, but they aren't in a great situation here. As good as they have looked lately, they have been beating up on a lot of bad opponents in the league. They are also at a disadvantage here since they are playing this game on a back-to-back and they do not have an easy game against the Timberwolves the night before. The Bulls haven't looked that great themselves lately, going 5-5 in their last 10 games and losing 2 games in a row now too. They are off a big loss to the Bucks in their last one, but they did just make some trades to improve the team. The Bulls will be looking to bounce back from that bad loss with some new additions to the team now, and they are in the better situation here since they do have some rest on their side. Expect the new look Bulls to take advantage of the Raptors on a back-to-back here and keep this a tighter game. The best way to place a bet here is on the Bulls to cover the spread in this game.

“He’s been great. The time I’ve had to spend with him from when the trade happened, as the game has evolved with pace and threes he’s always adjusted, which I really respected, and he was always available. In a league where a lot of guys get hurt and are unable to play, rightfully so (the best ability is availability, right?), he found a way to always get himself ready to play. One of the first guys in (to practice) every day, always took care of his body. Even last night we get in and get to the hotel and I go to the weight room and he’s already on the treadmill. It’s that kind of professionalism for younger guys to see how he gets himself ready to play. Great family man. Chicago winters get really cold and you’re watching film (at the Advocate Center), and it’s at night and you hear the ball bouncing. And he’s there with his three kids because they can’t go out; it’s too cold. He really tried to balance being a great player and husband and father as well.” - Billy Donovan on Nikola Vucevic.

“I think what our team accomplished so far in the second year of a rebuild, the way Scottie is playing this season, the way BI is playing this season, I think those two guys deserve consideration, nomination and to be announced as all-stars tonight. We’ll take it. We’ll take both of those guys being in the all-star game.” - Darko Rajakovic on Scottie Barnes and Brandon Ingram deserving to be All-Stars.
