The Mavericks take on the Bulls and I’m targeting a matchup on the interior. I think this is a good spot for Gafford who lines up opposite Nikola Vucevic. When these teams last played, both Gafford and Lively went off for 20 and 22 points respectively. Tonight, Lively is listed as Questionable and it’s possible he does not play at all or is limited. I have this line as fair if Lively is in, but a great value if Lively is out. The Bulls are playing at the fastest-Pace in the NBA and they are allowing the sixth-highest rim rate and the second-highest Rim Shooting Efficiency (70.6%), per Dunks and Threes. I’ll back Gafford to exceed 10.5 points.

Over 234-110

Read full writeup on X: https://x.com/PicksOffice Chicago and Dallas should exceed the total, with Chicago’s high pace and weak defense allowing plenty of scoring. Both teams trend towards the Over, and Dallas’s efficient offense led by Doncic can capitalize. Chicago’s poor defense and Dallas’s tempo adjustment favor a high-scoring game.
