The Cleveland Cavaliers have rediscovered their winning rhythm after a brief two-game slump. Following losses to the Boston Celtics and Toronto Raptors, the Cavs bounced back impressively with a 148–114 road victory against the Washington Wizards on Saturday, extending their current winning streak to three games.
Head coach Kenny Atkinson has managed to get his team firing again, especially offensively. The Cavaliers have averaged 124.6 points per game during their current run, with Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland leading the charge.
Cleveland’s home form has also been solid — they’ve won three of their last four games at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. However, they will be seeking their first win in three meetings against the Bulls, who have proven a difficult matchup in recent encounters.

The Chicago Bulls started their campaign brilliantly with a 6–0 record but have recently stumbled, losing two of their last three. They suffered a 126–110 defeat to the Milwaukee Bucks in their latest outing on Saturday, struggling to contain Giannis Antetokounmpo’s offensive dominance.
Nonetheless, head coach Billy Donovan has built a resilient group that remains competitive in every game. Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan continue to provide scoring consistency, while Nikola Vučević has been instrumental on the boards.
Despite the recent setbacks, the Bulls’ away form remains strong — they have a 6–3 record on the road dating back to last season. Moreover, they have defeated the Cavaliers in two straight head-to-head meetings, which will give them confidence heading into this encounter.
MatchPlug Prediction for Cleveland Cavaliers vs Chicago Bulls
Both sides are enjoying strong starts to the NBA season, but recent momentum slightly favors Cleveland with their three-game winning run. Still, the Bulls have historically matched up well against them, winning the last two meetings and playing tough on the road.
Given the Cavaliers’ heavy schedule and the Bulls’ ability to stay close in tight contests, this could be a competitive game that goes down to the wire. Expect Chicago to keep it within the spread.
