Key Storylines
The Bulls are off to a strong start. They are sitting at 3‑0 to start the year and they’ve positioned themselves as an early threat in a wide-open Eastern Conference. They rank fourth in the league in scoring defense and will try to shut down the struggling Kings here. The Kings are still trying to find their rhythm, with a 1‑3 record. All four of their games have been decided by single-digits and the Kings will try to make the plays necessary to come out on the right side of a close game tonight.
Chicago will be the more rested team going into this matchup. Sacramento is on the second leg of a road back-to-back here and could be vulnerable in a hostile environment on tired legs. Bettors should not discount the back-to-back and its impact on the veterans of the Bulls here.
The Bulls are missing guard Coby White (calf) and forward/center Zach Collins (wrist) for this game. Kings forward Keegan Murray is out, and both teams will need to overcome the absence of some key players to get a win here.

Final Thoughts
We should see the Chicago Bulls continue their winning ways on Wednesday night in Chicago. The Bulls have done a great job on defense for the most part this season and their offense should also have a big night against a Kings team that has been mediocre on defense early in the year. I’ll lay the points with the Bulls in this matchup that will feature the return of Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan to Chicago.
