Timberwolves vs. Bulls Odds & Betting Predictions - February 7, 2024

@JoeDellera

Ayo is over this line in 6/L7. He’s playing major minutes now, with 39 in each of his L3. He’s 9/15 on this line this season when playing at least 32 mins. It’s a very tough team matchup, but his individual spot isn’t as bad, with DDR getting McDaniels and Vooch getting Gobert - Ayo should get some added volume today. But in general, he’s averaging 13.3 pts per 34 mins this season.

The Minnesota Timberwolves head to Chicago to take on the Bulls and one matchup I’m watching is in the paint. I expect Rudy Gobert to dominate this matchup against Nikola Vucevic. Gobert has been an absolute force in this spot. He has cleared this rebounds line in 12 consecutive head-to-head contests against Vuc. He’s averaged an absurd 16.6 rebounds per game and when Vuc has been with the Bulls he’s tallied 19, 20, 19, and 13 rebounds against him. Gobert already leads the league in Rebounding Chances with 21.8 per game to go along with 12.5 rebounds per game. He has exceeded this line in 10 of his last 15 games as well. The Bulls have surrendered monster rebounding games to Centers this season including Hartenstein (20), Wembanyama (20), Allen (17), Nurkic (17), and Jokic (16). Gobert should join their ranks tonight and I’ll play some alts as well.
