Chicago Bulls Form


Chicago experienced a dip in form late in November, losing three times in a four-game spell.

They ended the month on a high though, producing their best offensive performance of the season so far.

The Bulls put up 133 points in a win over Charlotte that saw Nikola Vucevic (30 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists) finally come to life.

That performance boosted Vucevic’s averages this season to 14.5 points, 11.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game.

The standout performers are, of course, Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan. DeRozan is averaging a team-leading 25.9 points per game, with LaVine just behind on 25.3 points per outing.

Lonzo Ball is averaging 12.5 pints, 5.2 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game, while Alex Caruso leads the league in steals with 46 so far.

Chicago will be without Coby White. He only recently returned from injury but is now sidelined after testing positive for COVID-19.

New York Knicks Form


New York started the season hot with five wins from their first six games, but their form tailed off in November.

The Knicks went 6-9 last month and they lost five of their eight games played at Madison Square Garden.

They go into this matchup on the back of a 112-110 defeat in Brooklyn on Tuesday night, and their most recent home outing saw them get blown out 118-97 by Phoenix.

New York’s inconsistent form has come at a time where there best player has struggled.

Julius Randle failed to break the 20-point barrier in nine of their 15 November games and he recently failed to hit double digits in back-to-back outings.

As a result Randle is now averaging 19.4 points per game to go along with a team-leading 10.1 rebounds and 5.1 assists.

RJ Barrett is the Knicks’ next best scorer, averaging 14.0 points per game, while Evan Fournier is scoring 13.1 points per outing.

Verdict
