Wednesday’s NBA slate sees just two games on the schedule, with both tipping off at 8 p.m. EST. One of those clashes pits the Cleveland Cavaliers against the Chicago Bulls at the United Center in the Windy City. The Cavs are 15-12 on the campaign and 6-5 when playing on the road; Chicago holds a 10-15 record and sits 6-6 on its home floor.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, Cleveland is a -5.5 favorite with -218 odds to win on the Moneyline. The game total is set at 242.5 combined points.
Here are a couple of the best Cavaliers vs. Bulls prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Wednesday’s contest.
Best Cavaliers vs. Bulls player prop bets
Coby White 22+ points (-122)
Coby White has struggled with some injury issues this season, but he’s suited up in four straight games and doesn’t appear on Wednesday’s injury report. The 25-year-old guard emerged as a standout option in the pecking order of the Bulls’ offense over the last couple of seasons, and he currently averages a career-best 21.7 PPG through his nine appearances despite playing just 29.2 minutes per game. While his three-point shooting is down to just 26.9% after hovering around 37% over the last two full campaigns, he’s still finding ways to pour in the points and attacking the basket plenty. White notched at least 22 points in five of his nine outings so far this season and has been held under 20 points just once in those other four contests. While Jarrett Allen rejoined the Cavaliers’ lineup recently, reigning DPOY Evan Mobley will miss multiple weeks due to a calf strain and leaves Cleveland without its best and most versatile defender. His absence boosts the outlook some for White here, so I like the Bulls to make a concerted effort to get the guard involved as per usual.
Jaylon Tyson 2+ three-pointers made (-117)
He’s no superstar, but Jaylon Tyson has quietly taken a leap in his second professional campaign. After playing just 9.6 minutes per game last year with 3.6 PPG, the 23-year-old perimeter talent is up to 13.1 PPG with 28.2 minutes a night. He excelled in the absence of Darius Garland earlier this season while the point guard rehabbed a toe injury, but the two have coexisted alongside Donovan Mitchell as well — Tyson posts 11.8 PPG and 6.7 rebounds across 29.3 minutes when Garland is active. The lineups shift from time to time but the 6-foot-6 sophomore can slot in anywhere from the one to the three, making him a valuable and versatile player. Best of all is his perimeter shooting, knocking down a staggering 46.5% of his 4.5 three-point attempts per game. Tyson’s sunk at least two shots from beyond the arc in 14 of his 22 appearances, and against a Bulls defense that’s regressed significantly following a hot start early in the year, he should do so again on Wednesday night with a fairly significant role.
