Nikola Vucevic continues to defy the odds and is having arguably his most efficient season to date, however I still contend he is a regression candidate and it's coming sooner, rather than later. This is a big number for Vucevic, even if then Bulls are short handed his usage doesn't significantly increase. There is also massive blowout potential in this game which could lead to fewer minutes for the big man. I have a fairly sizable edge with my projections on this combo line.

This is a massive combo line for Josh Giddey who averages approximately 25.6 PRA on the season, however that number has decreased to 24.2 in the month of January. Coby White could potentially suit up for this game which could impact Giddey's minutes and his defense leaves a lot to be desired so if he not making a big impact offensively, he often doesnt exceed 30 minutes. The Bulls are also 14.5 point underdogs against the Celtics and a blowout is certainly a real possibility as well.
