The Chicago Bulls are very far from catching a spot in the NBA Playoffs with their record standing at 20-40. Even with their slimmest chance to secure a playoff spot, how they are playing right now looks like that they have given up on the season already as they lost nine of their last ten games. At home, they have the best chances of winning since they won 14 of their 29 games. Zach LaVine is the only bright spot so far this season but the Bulls have been plagued by injuries from Lauri Markkanen and a few others.
