1.87Tip and bets
Bookmaker experts consider Golden State to be the clear favorite of the upcoming match. In their opinion, Chicago will not have many chances to succeed. However, you can argue with them. The Warriors are clearly experiencing a crisis at the moment and cannot get out of it in any way. The Bulls, on the other hand, are playing at their own level and have been counting only on the play-in for several seasons in a row. Donovan's team will have to give a real fight to not the most formidable opponent with the noisy support of their fans.
Our forecast is that Chicago will win with a handicap (+7.5) points, taking into account overtime in 1.78
Betting on an individual total
Chicago is showing good performance this season. The average score for the last ten games is 113. In matches with the Warriors — 105. And this time, it's looking like Donovan's team will be able to improve their stats.
Our forecast is that Chicago's individual total is more than 112.5 points, including overtime in 2.08
The bet on the player
White played 79 games last regular season and averaged 19.4 points per game. This season, his score is already slightly higher — 18.5. The 24-year-old point guard has definitely not lost his basic skills. An American basketball player will be able to cause a lot of trouble to the opponent's defense.
Our forecast is that White's total points are over 20.5, taking into account overtime in 1.87
