These teams are pretty evenly matched on the offensive end of the floor in the first week of the season as the Bulls are 8th in scoring with 116.3 ppg while the Magic are 9th at 115.5 ppg so far. Things are different on the defensive end as Orlando stands ninth by allowing 109.3 ppg while the Bulls are 25th in that category by allowing 120.5 points a game. Lonzo Ball is hurt again as his wrist has him out for this game. It's hard to see the Bulls sustaining their perimeter shooting and they don't have a good matchup for Paolo Banchero, who went for 50 points, 13 rebounds and nine assists in the Magic's win over Indiana. Orlando has won the last five meetings between the teams straight up (and ATS!): look for them to run that string to six with a triumph here.
