Hawks visit Bulls with Chicago on eight-game losing streak

Atlanta visits Chicago on Friday, with the Hawks favored to rebound after a loss to the Lakers against a Bulls team that has lost eight straight and won only once this season. Chicago showed resilience in a close loss to San Antonio, but Atlanta’s stronger recent form and Chicago’s struggles defending the three-point line underpin the Hawks’ case. One prop recommendation is Onyeka Okongwu over 1.5 made three-pointers: he has made two in each of his past five games, and the Bulls have allowed opponents to shoot well from deep. Atlanta’s perimeter attack could test a Chicago defense that may have to leave space when responding to drives and screens.
