Lonzo Ball, Zach LaVine, Javonte Green, Derrick Jones Jr. and Patrick Williams still out.
Ball, LaVine, and Jones Jr. are all dealing with knee injuries while Green is nursing a groin problem and Williams has a wrist injury.
The Bulls are currently in the midst of a four-game losing streak, and their lead in the Central Division is down to 1.5 games. Bookmakers have yet to release odds for Chicago’s next game, but given the injury report, you almost have to give the edge to a Cavs team that’s currently on a five-game winning streak.
If we look at the divisional futures market, the Cavaliers have some value at +750 odds while the Bulls are priced at +110. However, the Milwaukee Bucks are the odds-on-favorite at -110 despite trailing in the division by two games.
