Bam Adebayo was equally impressive with his own double-double of 24 points and 14 rebounds. Rookies Tyler Herro (22) and Kendrick Nunn (14) continued to produce while veteran Kelly Olynyk added 10 points.

Free Chicago Bulls vs. Miami Heat NBA Prediction:
The Heat is one of the pleasant surprises this season consisting of a well-balanced roster and are poised to claim a top seed in the postseason.
Meanwhile, the Bulls were a team many suspected would take a leap but stumbled early. Their recent success is something to build upon but they need a statement win to help propel them forward.
