Golden State Warriors vs Chicago Bulls Bet Builder: Friday, December 2nd
The 11-11 Golden State Warriors are seven-point favourites over the 9-12 Chicago Bulls for their late-night duel at Chase Center on Friday. After a slow start, the defending champion Warriors have been up in eighth in net rating over the last 10 games, and rank top 10 at both ends of the floor over that span.
Chicago is on a 4-8 run, and is down in 23rd in net rating over the last 10. Lonzo Ball is the only absentee for their trip to San Francisco, with Alex Caruso cleared to return. Golden State also has the luxury of an almost clean injury report – Andre Iguodala is the only player not available to Steve Kerr.
Golden State won both of the matchups between these teams in 2021-22. The contest in San Francisco ended 93-119 in the Dubs’ favour, and they won by 42 points when these superpower franchises went toe-to-toe in Chicago back in January.

Demoting James Wiseman to the G-League helped to turn the Warriors’ season around. They had no answer for Luka Doncic last time out (and who does?), but they have been a markedly better team without Wiseman. Even when they were struggling early in the season, their record at Chase Center was strong. Only the Cavs and Celtics have covered the spread more frequently at home.
The Bulls were blown out by Phoenix a couple of days ago. There is a degree of dysfunction across the team. At a talent deficit to the Warriors, they need to make good use of their size if they are to be competitive in north California. The Dubs are bottom 10 in rebounding rate. Nikola Vucevic is sixth in the Association in rebounds per game with 11.2. The 10.5 line is far too low – take the over.

A big part of Golden State’s resurgence has been the increased production from a ramped-up Klay Thompson. Despite scoring just five in the loss to Dallas, Thompson has scored 13 or more points in 10 of his last 12. Chicago is below average in three-point rate allowed. There’s value on Thompson’s alternate points line.
Like Thompson, Andrew Wiggins has been more efficient of late aside from the Mavericks game. He is averaging 18.6 points per game this season, and has cleared this lower line in six of his last seven.
With Steph Curry playing like an MVP, Draymond Green defending at a high level and with serviceable bench pieces, the Warriors are almost impossible to beat when Wiggins and Thompson are hitting shots. After destroying the Bulls last season, we are expecting another comprehensive Golden State win.
- Nikola Vucevic over 10.5 rebounds
- Klay Thompson over 12.5 points
- Andrew Wiggins over 12.5 points
- Warriors -7.5
