This will be the first meeting between the teams this season. The Bulls have won only once in their last five games.
Kings are coming off a 100-97 home win over the Denver Nuggets. Harrison Barnes was great with 30 points (10-of-19 FG) and 5 rebounds. The Bulls will want to move on from a 103-107 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers in which Wendell Carter Jr. was solid with 16 points (7-of-16 from the field) and 9 rebounds.
Tomas Satoransky had 12 points (4-of-8 FG) and 8 assists. Zach LaVine led the team with 28 points (8-of-24 FG), 5 assists and 6 rebounds. The matchup between Buddy Hield and Zach LaVine will be one of the most interesting things to watch out for in this game.
Both teams are expected to be at full strength today with no notable injuries. The Kings and Bulls will come into the game after two days of rest. The Bulls are a better defensive team, leading the league in steals, while the Kings come in at just No. 14.
