Randy’s Pick

As Ive said time and time again, I want nothing to do with the Chicago Bulls, and that continues while they've lost 3 straight games. The Chicago Bulls often look like they don't want to be on the floor together, and guys continue to hear rumors of trades. The Brooklyn Nets are on the end of a back to back, but they're also 10-3-1 ATS, one of the top moneymakers in the league currently. Zach LaVine and Alex Caruso are also questionable for the Bulls. I'll lay the bucket with the Nets in this spot.

The pick in this article is the opinion of the writer, not a PickDawgz site consensus.
