Bulls vs. Pelicans: Odds, Lines, Picks, and Predictions - November 16, 2022 | NHL Regular Season
The Chicago Bulls head down to NOLA to take on the New Orleans Pelicans. It will be a solid matchup between the two teams with reverse records going at it.
Chicago have been on a bit of a skid, losing four of their last five. After a hot start to the season, they need to return to those opening ways and string together some wins.
Chicago was strong while healthy last season, and now they need to hold the ship steady with Colby White and Lonzo Ball missing time. Losing these players was not enough of a detriment for this team to be failing like this. Chicago should be able to win without these two players.

Bulls vs. Pelicans Best Picks
CJ McCollum is a player that has to step up when Zion is not on the court; he is averaging 19 points a game this year. Considering his workload will be bumped up a notch today, his total should be higher. Almost any McCollum prop is a solid play in this one.
CJ McCollum Over 21.5 Points (-115)
Bulls vs. Pelicans Prediction
The Pelicans had some woes of their own on their last road trip, but they seem to have straightened things out while at the Blender.
On that road trip, they had two overtime losses and a brutal loss to the Indiana Pacers. Losing in overtime is always something a team will look back on at the end of the season when it has the potential to improve their positioning in the standings drastically. However, what's done is done, and this team has no choice but to move on and pick in wins in their upcoming games.
Zion Williamson will not be playing tonight, but the team has proved this year that they can win even when Williamson is not on the floor.
New Orleans should wipe the floor with this struggling Chicago team, and bettors may even consider an ALT spread to pump up the juice on the payout.
New Orleans -1.5 (-110)
