The Knicks won the title in June, beating San Antonio in five games. They lost three of their first four this season, and they’re playing for the second night running.<\/strong> Last night’s 111-97 win over Detroit was the first.<\/p>\n

Chicago is 1-3 as well, after a 134-99 loss in Boston on Monday. That leaves this Knicks vs Bulls game as two clubs trying to get out of a slow start.<\/p>\n\n\n

New York’s scoring has been thin<\/h2>\n

The Knicks lost 106-100 to Philadelphia, 107-103 in Boston and 111-102 to Orlando, and in none of those games, or in last night’s win, did a team built around Brunson and Towns get past 111 points. Last season they scored 117.8 per 100 possessions.<\/p>\n

Jalen Brunson averages 22.8 points and Karl-Anthony Towns had 27 points and 20 rebounds last night. Mikal Bridges has 22 points across four games. Jose Alvarado is day to day with an ankle injury.<\/p>\n

Rates from last season. The Knicks were 11.4 points per 100 possessions better and played far slower than Chicago.<\/p>\n

Chicago leans on Caleb Wilson and Norman Powell<\/h2>\n

The Bulls lost 135-92 in Toronto, won 132-125 in Milwaukee, then lost 124-120 at home to Washington before Boston. Caleb Wilson averages 21 points and had 30 and 14 against the Wizards. Powell averages 19.5.<\/p>\n

Leonard Miller, the Canadian forward, scored 19 in the Milwaukee win. Patrick Williams (groin) and Tobe Awaka (ankle) are questionable, and Nic Claxton is out with a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n

The Knicks won three of last season’s four meetings<\/h2>\n\n

Players to watch<\/h2>\n

Karl-Anthony Towns, New York.<\/strong> Double-doubles in all four games, the last one 27 and 20.<\/p>\n

Caleb Wilson, Chicago.<\/strong> Sixteen or more every night, and more minutes than anyone else on the Bulls.<\/p>\n\n\n

Score prediction<\/h2>\n

Knicks 114-109 Bulls.<\/strong> Last season’s ratings, 11.4 points per 100 possessions apart, would make New York about a nine-point favourite in Chicago. We knock a lot off that for a 1-3 start in which the Knicks haven’t scored more than 111, and a little more for the back-to-back.<\/p>\n

Knicks vs Bulls prediction<\/h2>\n

Chicago plays fast and has given up 124 or more in all four games. The Knicks have been slow and low-scoring, with every game finishing between 206 and 213 points.<\/p>\n

Our pick: New York to win, the Knicks at -4.5 or shorter, and the under only if the total sits at 230.5 or higher.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our player prop is Mikal Bridges under 11.5 points. He has 4, 0, 6 and 12 so far. Every book on Covers’ NBA prop board had 11.5 at 6:55 a.m. ET.<\/p>\n

We keep the rest of Wednesday’s games on the NBA games tonight<\/a> board, with times and absences.<\/p>\n\n

What time is Knicks vs Bulls?<\/strong>

Tip-off is 8:00pm ET \/ 7:00pm CT on Wednesday 28 October 2026 at United Center, Chicago.<\/p><\/div>

Where can I watch Knicks vs Bulls in Canada?<\/strong>

We couldn’t find a Canadian TV broadcast. NBA League Pass is the way to see games like this one in Canada.<\/p><\/div>

Are the Knicks the defending champions?<\/strong>

Yes. They beat the San Antonio Spurs 4-1 in the 2026 NBA Finals.<\/p><\/div>

Are the Knicks on a back-to-back?<\/strong>

Yes. They beat Detroit 111-97 at home last night.<\/p><\/div>

What is our Knicks vs Bulls prediction?<\/strong>

Knicks 114-109. We back New York to win, at -4.5 or shorter, and the under only at 230.5 or higher.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n
