Oklahoma City at Chicago

Chet Holmgren will make his NBA debut for Oklahoma City, but he played only one college season and it has yet to be determined if his thin 7-foot-1 frame can hold up over an 82-game schedule. He already missed last season with a foot injury, but the Thunder are counting on him to get them into the playoffs after barely missing out last season. Chicago retained its nucleus of DeMar DeRozan, Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic, and hopes to improve on its 40-42 record in 2022-23. The Bulls are 38-17 ATS as home favorites and the Thunder ended last season covering just three of their final 10 games. It's a near pick 'em game with Chicago playing at home. Take the Bulls.
