Rockets vs. Bulls Betting Line – Fantasy Pick: Nikola Mirotic

The Rockets vs. Bulls betting line for January 5 had Chicago as a -3.5 home favorite.

This game features two top teams with nearly identical records Straight Up: Chicago 24-10, Houston 23-10.  The Rockets have paid out in 18 games while the Bulls have had some trouble Against The Spread, going 15-19. 

Houston has won four of the last five in this series though they lost badly to Chicago their last meeting back in March.  Prior to that game, Houston had either won or came within three points dating back to the 2010-2011 season.

The Bulls Nikola Mirotic represents a solid Fantasy pick for Monday night’s matchup.  He’s priced right at $5600 and Mike Dunleavy (ankle) will be out, thus enhancing Mirotic’s value here.

He played 38 minutes his last outing while shooting 20% from the field.  Mirotic has 30+ fantasy point upside against the Rockets, according to the fine folks at Rotoworld.  That is SICK!  If you like money, well…..
