This Bucks vs. Bulls fantasy picks and betting report is courtesy of Gambling911.com, the official sponsor of the first ever Daily Fantasy Sports Expo in Miami Beach.  This is just one of the many new additions to the Gambling911.com site to compliment the second half of the season that we hope will make you a winner whether you’re betting on games or playing daily fantasy NBA.

Milwaukee comes into this game having won 8 of their last 10 games Straight Up though just covering the spread in four of those.  They are 31-25 Straight Up and an impressive 34-20 Against The Spread. 

The Bucks are 3-7 versus the Bulls in their last 10 meetings and have lost their last five versus the Bulls.  Chicago opened overnight as a -8 home favorite. 

Here are your projected salaries and target fantasy points to make value (vary between sites):

Khris Middleton (SF) $6.5K – 30 fantasy points

Giannis Antetok (SF) $7.4K – 33 fantasy points

John Henson (C) 5K – 25 fantasy points

Jared Dudley (SF) (SG) $4.1K – 23 fantasy points

Jerryd Bayless (PG) $4.4K – 23 fantasy points

vs. Chicago – Chicago is not the most fantasy-friendly team in the league.  Ranked in top 15 for points allowed per game and rebound differential, it is true that their front court is not as intimidating as it once was.  The Small forward position has been especially exploitable this season.

Chicago comes into this game with a respectable 35-21 record Straight Up but are just 25-31 ATS.  They have won 6 of their last 10 games Straight Up and have covered half of those games Against The Spread.

Here are your projected salaries and target fantasy points to make value (vary between sites):

Joakim Noah (C) $6.9K – 31 fantasy points

Jimmy Butler (SG) $7.5K – 34 fantasy points

Derrick Rose (PG) $7.9K – 34 fantasy points

Mike Dunleavy (SG) $3.6K – 22 fantasy points

Pau Gasol (PF) $9.7K – 39 fantasy points

vs. Wisconsin – The Bucks have allowed the most fantasy points to opposing centers for much of the new year, and that’s terrific news for Bulls center Joakim Noah, one of the best in the league. 

Noah recorded 10 points,15 rebounds, seven assists and one block in 31 minutes Thursday against the Cavaliers, easily making value.

There’s one small problem.  He sucked against the Bucks when he last faced them….and that’s putting it mildly.

Perhaps we can chalk that up to a rare off night.

Pau Gasol, who has also played the center position, was phenomenal against the Bucks the last time he faced them.

Gasol posted his league-leading 36th double-double Saturday, scoring 22 points with 14 rebounds and two assists in 32 minutes.
