The Bulls let an 8 point lead slip against the Bucks on Saturday in the 118-112 result. They’ve now lost their last 4 games and they should be desperate to get back on track against the 76ers. The one positive out of the loss over the Bucks was the combination of LaVine and DeRozan as they combined for 59 pts. They just need a bit more help.<\/span><\/p>\n The 76ers were without James Harden in Sunday’s 99-82 loss against the Heat. They shot just 34% from the field and 17% from beyond the arc. However, Harden is listed to return against the Bulls and he’ll look to get their offence back on track. In Harden’s first 4 games for Philly, they scored 120+ pts in all 4 games and will be expecting to reach that mark against a struggling Bulls defence.<\/span><\/p>\n With Harden expected back on the court and the 76ers’ dominant record over the Bulls, it’s hard to bet against them to cover. They’re 6-1 ATS against the Bulls at home and Chicago have lost 9 of their last 12 road games.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n The 76ers are 4-1 in their last 5 home games. Chicago has lost each of their last 5 games in Philadelphia.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\n Philadelphia has the wood over the Bulls with 10 straight wins and they beat them by 11 points last month.<\/span><\/p>\n Best Bet<\/b><\/p>\n Philadelphia 76ers -6.5 = $1.89<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n After a disappointing 34 pt loss against the Pelicans, the Jazz got back on track with a 116-103 win over the Thunder on Monday. Bojan Bogdanovic led the scoring with 35 pts and Donovan Mitchell added 24 pts in the blowout. They’re now on a back to back and after 4 straight road games, they may need to give some of their starters a rest. But Monday’s comfortable win would’ve helped their cause.<\/span><\/p>\n The Mavericks are on a 4 game winning streak and have won 8 of their last 10 home games. Newly acquired Spencer Dinwiddie had his best game in a Mavs jersey with 36 pts in their 1 point win over the Kings on Sunday. They were without Doncic and he’s listed as questionable for this matchup.<\/span><\/p>\n The Mavericks have a nice record over the Jazz and with the return of Doncic, they look too strong on their home court. Overall, they’ve won 6 of their last 7 home games and also hold an 5-2 ATS record on their home court against Utah.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n The Mavericks are 6-1 in their last 7 games. Utah has a poor 6-18 record in Dallas.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\n Utah has won 7 of the last 10 meetings. This season, the Jazz are 2-1 but have won both games on their home court.<\/span><\/p>\n Best Bet<\/b><\/p>\nUtah Jazz (40-23) at Dallas Mavericks (39-25)<\/b><\/h3>\n
