Brooklyn Nets vs Chicago Bulls Prediction
Brooklyn might not be in the ideal shape for the forthcoming fight, but the hosts should prevail. First off, the team has only lost ten times in 26 games this season when playing at home (the sixth figure in the east). Second, Chicago has only won ten of its twenty-seven road games, which rarely appeases the club’s supporters (the tenth figure in the east). In addition, it is important to take into account that the Brooklyn Nets have won seven of the last ten head-to-head matches between the Chicago Bulls and Brooklyn Nets that have taken place at the Brooklyn venue.

Brooklyn Nets vs Chicago Bulls Injury Report
Brooklyn Nets:
Yuta Watanabe
Watanabe (back) is doubtful to play against the Bulls on Thursday, according to Christian Arnold of the Associated Press. Due to a stiff back, Watanabe was unable to play against the Suns on Tuesday, but he will have a chance to do so on Thursday. Watanabe might not get much playing time if he plays against Chicago because Dorian Finney-Smith (coach’s decision) will be available.
Seth Curry
Seth Curry (right adductor strain) won’t play for Brooklyn against the Bulls. Due to the injury, the guard will miss his third consecutive game. Over his last three outings, the guard has had trouble getting into a rhythm, scoring 7.3 points on 9 of 26 (34.6 percent) field goal attempts and 4-of-14 (28.5 percent) three-point attempts per game.
Brooklyn Nets: T. J. Warren, Day’Ron Sharpe, Seth Curry, Kevin Durant, and Yuta Watanabe
Chicago Bulls:
DeMar DeRozan
Prior to Thursday’s game against a Nets team that will also be severely shorthanded, DeRozan has surfaced on the injury report once more. DeMar’s ability to play is currently in doubt due to a strained right hip. It now seems that his absence was more than just a regular night off because it was the same issue that kept him out of the game versus the Grizzlies.
Alex Caruso
Caruso will most likely play against the Nets on Thursday despite having a painful left midfoot. Despite still having a bothersome foot issue, Caruso is anticipated to play in his second straight game on Thursday. DeMar DeRozan (hip) is doubtful, so the 28-year-old guard might continue to start.
Chicago Bulls: Alex Caruso, Patrick Williams, DeMar DeRozan, Javonte Green, and Lonzo Ball
