The NBA season just gets better with another 11 games this Saturday including Australians Josh Giddey and Dyson Daniels. Can the Bulls continue their hot start when they head to Milwaukee? And can Daniels continue to play an instrumental role for the Hawks in Trae Young\u2019s absence when they host the Raptors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chicago Bulls @ Milwaukee Bucks<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I definitely wouldn\u2019t have said this three weeks ago, but what an Eastern Conference matchup we have here between the Eastern Conference-leading Bulls, and the Bucks led by Giannis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Josh Giddey might have produced the best three-week stretch we\u2019ve seen by an Australian in the NBA leading the Bulls to a 6-1 start, while Giannis has low-key gone under the radar to start this season despite averaging 32.3 points, 12.6 rebounds and 6.3 assists.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can Chicago\u2019s hot start continue?<\/span><\/p>\n

Leg 1 – Nikola Vucevic Under 18.5 Points<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Montenegrin has had a hot start to the 2025-26 season playing an instrumental part to Chicago\u2019s early success.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although he\u2019s averaging 19.3 points per game, his coverage rate of this line is only at 43% this season and this match-up isn\u2019t great for Vucevic.<\/span><\/p>\n

With Myles Turner joining the Bucks, they\u2019ve become the second best team in the NBA at restricting points for centres at a rate of -21% below average. This could be a tough one for Vuc.<\/span><\/p>\n

Leg 2 – Ryan Rollins 10+ Points<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Has taken the starting point guard spot at the Bucks with two hands.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rollins averages 16.3 points per game this season, and has hit 10+ points in his last eight games in which he happened to be a starter in those eight games with the injury of Kevin Porter Jr in their opener.<\/span><\/p>\n

Two quieter games leading into this, but he\u2019s still hit 10+ on both occasions and will so again.<\/span><\/p>\n

Leg 3 – Josh Giddey 8+ Rebounds<\/strong><\/h3>\n

His numbers this season are off the charts putting himself in All Star contention early. Josh Giddey is averaging 23.1 points, 10.1 rebounds and 9.1 assists, and it\u2019s his rebound numbers I\u2019m keen to follow.<\/span><\/p>\n

Giddey has hit 8+ rebounds in his last six games, only failing to hit in Chicago\u2019s opener against the Pistons where he played less than 30 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hitting 10+ rebounds in four of his last five, I think he\u2019ll continue to be a triple double threat while in this vein of form.<\/span><\/p>\n

Same Game Multi<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Vucevic Under 18.5 Points \/ Rollins 10+ Points \/ Giddey 8+ Rebounds = $3.40<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Value Leg: Isaac Okoro 10+ Points<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Appears to be a sneaky good acquisition for the Bulls after really doing nothing in his time at Cleveland despite being a top-five pick.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>It was a terrible start to Okoro\u2019s Bulls career with bagels in his first two games, but since breaking the duck egg he\u2019s averaged 10.4 points across the last five games which includes 14 points in 22 minutes two starts back against the Knicks, and then 16 points in 33 minutes last start against the 76ers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not a reliable scorer, but a nice price for a third consecutive game of double figures here.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vucevic Under 18.5 Points \/ Rollins 10+ Points \/ Giddey 8+ Rebounds \/ Okoro 10+ Points = $8.00<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
