Dallas Mavericks vs. Chicago Bulls Prediction: Injury Report, Starting 5s, Betting Odds & Spreads - December 10 | 2022-23 NBA Season

The Dallas Mavericks (13-12) are coming into tonight's game off the back of a close loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Their opponents tonight, the Chicago Bulls (10-14), recently snapped their three-game losing skid with a win over the Washington Wizards.

Neither team has dominated on the court this season. The Bulls in particular have struggled to find their groove and even endured a four-game losing skid last month. The Mavericks, meanwhile, have had similar hardships, but have looked stronger overall on the court for the most part and have secured more wins.

Dallas Mavericks vs. Chicago Bulls Starting 5s

Mavericks - PG: Luka Doncic, SG: Spencer Dinwiddie, SF: Tim Hardaway, PF: Dorian Finney-Smith, C: Dwight Powell

Bulls - PG: Alex Caruso, SG: Zach LaVine, SF: DeMar DeRozan, PF: Javonte Green, C: Nikola Vucevic

Mavericks vs. Bulls Prediction

The Mavericks' star player this season has been point guard Luka Doncic. In the team's most recent victory over the Denver Nuggets, Doncic led the charge with an impressive 22 points, 10 rebounds, and 12 assists. The Bulls don't quite have any players at Doncic's level at the moment which does not bode well for them tonight.

The Bulls' comeback against the Wizards has provided them with some momentum ahead of tonight's showdown. However, they are 2-4 in their past six games and have been hampered by the long-term absence of star point guard Lonzo Ball. Even with the home field advantage, the Bulls' chances of beating a relatively healthy Dallas team seem slim.

Prediction: Mavericks +1 (-110)
