Wednesday, December 14th, the New York Knicks and Chicago Bulls will compete in the first of three scheduled matches including this baseball set in Chicago while New York will host the final match on December 23rd.
Both teams last played Sunday with the Knicks defeating the Kings 112-99 while the Bulls lost an overtime heartbreaker 122-123 to the Hawks.
Last season, the teams played four times splitting the regular season series with each team winning twice. The Bulls hold the all-time record having bested the Knicks in 126 of their 239 matches.
New York Knicks
Julius Randle seems to have rediscovered some of the verve that led to his Most Improved Player award two seasons ago. In his last 10 games, he’s averaged 25.2 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 4.0 assists.
Sunday he was on his way to a huge game but got ejected at 3:35 of the third frame after picking up two technical fouls for complaining to the officials. When he left the court he had 27 points, eight rebounds, and three assists.

Randle is shooting 46.1 percent from the field on 16.3 attempts, 33.7 percent from the perimeter on 7.0 attempts, and 79.9 percent from the stripe on 6.1 attempts.
Offensively, the Knicks score 113.8 points per game (13th). New York shoots 45.3% from the field ranking 25th and 31.9% from the perimeter ranking 30th.
Defensively, the Knicks allow opponents to score 112.9 points per game (14th). New York allows their opponents to shoot 44.7% from the field and 33.8% from the perimeter ranking second (they’ve climbed up nine spots in a few games) and third respectively.
Jalen Brunson (foot) is questionable, Ryan Arcidiacono (ankle) is doubtful, and Obi Toppin (non-displaced fibula fracture) is out.
Chicago Bulls
Sunday’s loss to the Hawks was particularly rough because it came off the hands of rookie A.J. Griffin who turned his body (in the air) to drop in a pretty shot as time expired.
Per typical, DeMar DeRozan led the way for the Bulls with a double-double of 34 points, 13 rebounds, and eight assists while missing only one of his 15 free throws.
He’s averaging 26.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game. He’s shooting 50.7 percent from the field on 18.0 attempts, 31.4 percent from the perimeter on 1.3 attempts, and 89.1 percent from the stripe on 8.1 attempts.
Chicago scores 113.3 points per game ranking 14th while they shoot 47.7% from the field and 36.2% from the perimeter ranking ninth and 13th respectively.
Defensively, they allow 113.3 points per game ranking 16th. Their opponents shoot 47.6% from the field and 36.5% from the perimeter ranking 22nd and 23rd respectively.
Alex Caruso (back) is probable while Ayo Dosunmu (pelvic) is questionable. Lonzo Ball (knee) remains out indefinitely.

Free New York Knicks vs. Chicago Bulls NBA Prediction:
The Knicks are riding a four-game win streak having held all but the Hornets (102) under the century mark. Some feel Randle and R.J. Barrett playing better offensively is the difference. But, their uptick in production is directly related to the insertion of Quentin Grimes to the starting lineup.
Given the Bulls are 2-4 through their last six combined with the Knicks’ recent ascent it’s slightly surprising Chicago is favored. Therefore, I recommend taking the Knicks and the points and I like the under.
