Thunder vs Bulls predictions, picks
Justin Martinez: OKC 123, Chicago 102
OKC’s 12-game winning streak was snapped with a road loss to Boston on Wednesday. But next up is a home game against Chicago, which has leaned into a rebuild and will likely be focused on improving its lottery odds. It’s a perfect bounce-back opportunity for the Thunder, which is at full strength.
