The Pick: Bulls +2.5 at -105 (bet365)

In a game between two struggling teams, the Chicago Bulls will face the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday, February 15th, 2023. The Pacers, who turned ice cold about five weeks ago, will host the game with a start time of 7:00 PM ET.

Bulls @ Pacers – NBA: Game at a Glance

• Chicago 26-31 overall: +2.5 (bet365)
• Bulls' moneyline betting odds: +125
• Indiana 25-34 overall: -2.5 (bet365)
• Pacers' moneyline betting odds: -145
• Game time: Wednesday, February 15th, 2023 @ 7:00 PM ET

The Chicago Bulls will enter the game with an overall record of 26-31 on the season. They have lost four straight but did hit a tough part of their schedule. The big problem with Chicago right now is that they just lost DeMar DeRozan to an injury for a game. They’ve got other question marks heading into the day but could struggle for points a little without DeRozan.

Indiana Pacers: Recent Form Alert

• Indiana Pacers were 23-18 (January 10th, 2023)
• Heading into this game they are 25-34
• The Pacers are 2-16 in their last 18 games

The Indiana Pacers are 25-34 on the season. This is a team that has just two wins in their last 18 games. When you are dealing with that kind of futility, you can’t go with normal odds for a team. They are hosting and they did beat Chicago as hosts back in late January for one of their rare wins this new year. However, you still have to feel like you need 6 or 7 handicap points to go with Indiana.

Take the Bulls at +2.5, also noting that the Pacers could be without their starting center, Myles Turner, and their backup center, Daniel Theis (updates here). Nikola Vucevic, Chicago’s center, could emerge as a huge player in this game if he ends up against a player that’s out of position. Better go with the Bulls on the handicap with bet365 in this one.
