Chicago at Memphis

Chicago did a better job of rebuilding in the offseason than Memphis. The Bulls come off a one-point loss at Charlotte as forward Lauri Markkanen had 35 points, 17 rebounds, and the team shot 46.7% and won the rebounding battle by +8. Memphis dropped its opener 120-101 at Miami on Wednesday, getting outscored 37-17 in the fourth and losing the rebound battle by nine. The Grizzlies are 7-19 ATS against the Eastern Conference, plus 17-36 ATS when following a loss of 10+ points. The Bulls won both meetings against the Grizzlies last season, 122-110 and 109-107. Chicago is 5-1 ATS in this building and the road team is 9-4 ATS when they clash. Take Chicago.
