Expert picks & predictions for Saturday’s Mavericks vs. Bulls game
NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Mavericks to cover against the Bulls:
“Chicago is coming off an insane half-court buzzer-beater from Josh Giddey to upset the Lakers and continue the hot 9-2 stretch for the Bulls. While Dallas isn’t an overall good team anymore, they have won three of the past four and with Anthony Davis playing minutes helps. While Chicago looks like an easy bet and more than likely will be the most public bet team, I would take a hard look at Dallas or live bet them.”
