Bulls vs. Hornets Preview
The Bulls have a Sunday matinee against the Charlotte Hornets. The player I’m targeting is Nikola Vuecvic.
Vucevic has remained productive for this Bulls team who has a chance to sneak into the 7/8 part of the Play-In Tournament. He is averaging 18.7 points, 10 rebounds, and 3.4 assists per game this season.
This matchup against the Hornets is a strong one for him, and he destroyed this line the last time he faced them, racking up 40 points, 13 rebounds, and 3 assists.
The rebounds for Vucevic have come down a bit in the back half of the season, so I’m leaving those out. But he has still been productive as a scorer and facilitator.
His Points + Assists (PA) line is set at 21.5, a number he can clear with points alone, and has hit in 5 of his last 10 games.
The Hornets may also be without Mark Williams today, who is on the injury report with a back issue, which would only make this matchup a bit softer against a familiar opponent in Jusuf Nurkic.
