That shows up in all sorts of ways, and tonight it will benefit the Phoenix Suns as they try to escape the Play-In Tournament despite a bevy of injuries.
My Bulls vs. Suns predictions and NBA picks expect an ugly slog on Thursday, March 5.
Bulls vs Suns prediction
Bulls vs Suns best bet: Under 225 (-110)
Did you know the Chicago Bulls are now starting Tre Jones at point guard?
He has gone back and forth this season between the starting lineup and the bench, returning to the former in the last two games. Jones may be there the rest of the season, as Chicago’s roster was thinned at the trade deadline.

Jones is just one part of why the Bulls have cashed five straight Unders ahead of tonight’s matchup with the Phoenix Suns.
Chicago’s rotation is so limited that a bench piece is now tasked with initiating the offense — and it hasn’t gone well.
Bulls vs Suns same-game parlay
Jones is a competent floor general, but this role is simply too big for him these days.
He has cleared these points prop just twice in the seven games since the All-Star Break, though he handed out six assists three times in those seven games.
In fact, this exact SGP would have cashed twice in that stretch.
