Chicago at Utah

Chicago can score this season! They still play great defense, top 12 in points allowed and field goal shooting allowed, but the offense is averaging over 100 points. They've had a few days to rest and stew after getting smoked at home by Portland. Jimmy Butler hopes to bounce back after scoring nine on 3-of-13 shooting Friday. Nikola Mirotic has added a lift after finishing with 24 points while hitting four of seven from 3-point range to go with 11 rebounds against the Blazers. The Bulls are 5-0 ATS in their last five Monday games.  They face a Jazz team that averaged 103.2 points in their first five games, but have scored 93.0 per game over the last nine. Utah also has allowed opponents to reach 100 points in five of its last six contests, surrendering a 48.9 field-goal percentage in that span. And forget about home court edge, Utah is 4-10-2 ATS in their last 16 home games. The Bulls are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings in Utah, as well. Play Chicago.
