The NBA regular season is going through its final stretch and this Friday, March 24, we will have a striking Bulls vs Trail Blazers game, in which two teams that are still trying to get a place in the Play-In tournament will face each other.
The Bulls have won three games in a row (not including Wednesday’s matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers) and that’s helping them take advantage while being at 10th place in the Eastern Conference. Meanwhile, the Trail Blazers are free falling. The team has suffered six losses in a row (not including Wednesday’s game against the Utah Jazz) and it seems like everything is going uphill for them.

Betting on the Chicago Bulls
- Regular Season Record: 34-37
Recently, the Bulls have been showing that they still have a competitive spirit within them, and have improved their performance significantly, as shown in last Monday’s double-overtime victory over the powerful Philadelphia 76ers.
DeMar DeRozan is reliably productive in every game and his numbers in the month of March are very impressive, averaging 27.8 points, 6.1 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 52.7% shooting from the field.
We should make use of his skill in providing assists when we place bets, as he has been consistently surpassing the line of 4.5 assists, and he has been exceeding that amount frequently in his games this month.
Betting on the Portland Trail Blazers
- Regular Season Record: 31-40
The recent string of losses by the Trail Blazers has raised concerns about whether the team will opt to rest their talented point guard Damian Lillard for the remainder of the season.
Unfortunately, Lillard’s performance has been hindered by the absence of his two key teammates, Anfernee Simons and Jerami Grant, due to injuries. It’s evident that Lillard cannot single-handedly lead the team to success while they struggle and continue to lose.
This week’s duels against Utah, Chicago and Oklahoma City will surely decide whether Portland keeps trying to find a Play-In spot or if they definitely give up.
JefeBet Prediction
The Bulls defeated the Trail Blazers 129-121 on February 4, in a game in which Zach LaVine scored 36 points.
At JefeBet, we believe that Chicago is in a much better moment than Portland is, and that is why they will win against this rival again.
Prediction: Chicago Bulls Moneyline (CHI 125-120 POR).
