A Las Vegas oddsmaker confirmed what most NBA fans already knew: the Chicago Bulls are going to be really bad this season.
Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook manager Jeff Sherman revealed on Twitter their opening over/under on 2017-2018 wins for each NBA team.
The Bulls 21.5 wins was the lowest number by a significant margin.
Here’s how the Bulls tanking competition looks:
- Atlanta Hawks: 25.5 wins
- Sacramento Kings: 28.5 wins
- Phoenix Suns: 28.5 wins
- Brooklyn Nets: 28.5 wins
- New York Knicks: 30.5 wins
- Indiana Pacers: 31.5 wins
For those worried that the Bulls wouldn’t be able to tank correctly, this list should provide reassurance. The league’s worst team gets a 25% chance to win the draft lottery with an over 64% chance to ‘earn’ a top-3 pick.
