ChatGPT prediction for Charlotte Hornets vs Chicago Bulls, 29 November 2025.
Chicago heads to Charlotte as rightful favorites after winning 9 of the last 10 in this matchup. The Hornets are 4-14, on a seven-game skid, allowing opponents to shoot 50.5% and ranking last in steals. With Brandon Miller sidelined, Charlotte leans heavily on Bridges and LaMelo, and the offense hasn’t been efficient enough to paper over the defense.
Yes, the Bulls have struggled on the first leg of back-to-backs, but the matchup edges are clear. Coby White’s scoring, Josh Giddey’s playmaking, and Vucevic’s inside-out game, plus 37.9% team three-point shooting, attack Charlotte’s weakest points. The Hornets have even failed to cover against teams on the first leg of B2Bs. At 1.68 (vs Charlotte’s 2.30), the moneyline is the pragmatic play over the -3.5; Chicago’s superior floor should prevail.

Gemini tip
Chicago Bulls win

Gemini prediction for Charlotte Hornets vs Chicago Bulls, 29 November 2025.
The Chicago Bulls enter this contest as clear favorites, and for good reason. Despite a worrying trend of losing their last seven games on the first leg of a back-to-back, their opponent's struggles are far more severe. The Bulls have utterly dominated this matchup, winning nine of their last ten games against the Hornets.
The Charlotte Hornets are in a complete tailspin, holding a dismal 4-14 record and riding a seven-game losing streak. Their defense is statistically one of the worst in the league, ranking 30th in steals and allowing opponents to shoot a staggering 50.5% from the field. To make matters worse, they will be without the services of key player Brandon Miller, a significant blow to their already anemic offense.
While the Bulls' back-to-back woes present a sliver of hope for the home team, Charlotte's inability to compete, combined with Chicago's historical and talent advantage, is too much to ignore. The 1.68 odds on a Bulls victory reflect a team poised to exploit a franchise in crisis, even on a tired night.

Claude tip
Chicago Bulls win
1.68
Claude prediction for Charlotte Hornets vs Chicago Bulls, 29 November 2025.
The Chicago Bulls enter Charlotte as 1.68 favorites against a Hornets team in complete freefall at 4-14. Chicago's historical dominance is staggering - they've won 9 of their last 10 matchups against Charlotte and covered the spread in 9 of their last 10 road games against Southeast Division teams with losing records.
Charlotte's defensive woes are alarming, ranking dead last in steals and allowing 50.5% field goal shooting. With 21 losses in their last 25 games and Brandon Miller sidelined, the Hornets lack the firepower to match Chicago's balanced attack led by Coby White (24 PPG) and Josh Giddey's playmaking.
The Bulls' only concern is their 0-7 record on the first leg of back-to-backs this season. However, facing the league's worst defense should provide the perfect remedy. Charlotte has failed to cover in their last four games against teams on back-to-back schedules, suggesting they can't capitalize on this potential advantage.

Grok prediction for Charlotte Hornets vs Chicago Bulls, 29 November 2025.
The Chicago Bulls head into Charlotte as solid favorites against the struggling Hornets, and for good reason. With a 9-8 record, the Bulls have dominated this matchup historically, winning 9 of their last 10 against Charlotte. Sure, they've dropped their last seven on the first leg of back-to-backs, but their road prowess against Southeast Division teams with losing records is impressive—they've covered the spread in nine of the last ten such games.
On the flip side, the Hornets are in freefall at 4-14, riding a seven-game losing streak and ranking dead last in steals while allowing foes to shoot 50.5% from the field. Losing Brandon Miller to injury only compounds their woes, leaving LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges to shoulder a heavy load against a Bulls squad led by Coby White's 24 PPG and Josh Giddey's playmaking.
Betting on the Bulls at 1.68 feels like a smart play here—their offensive efficiency and historical edge should overpower Charlotte's defensive frailties, even with the back-to-back caveat. Expect Chicago to pull away late for a convincing win.

DeepSeek prediction for Charlotte Hornets vs Chicago Bulls, 29 November 2025.
The Chicago Bulls are heavy favorites here, and for good reason. They've dominated the Hornets historically, winning 9 of the last 10 meetings. Charlotte is in a deep spiral, losing 7 straight games and ranking 30th in steals while allowing opponents to shoot over 50% from the field.
While the Bulls have a concerning trend of losing on the first leg of back-to-backs, their sheer talent edge with Coby White and the absence of Charlotte's Brandon Miller is too significant to ignore. The odds of 1.68 offer solid value on a proven winner against a struggling opponent.

Qwen prediction for Charlotte Hornets vs Chicago Bulls, 29 November 2025.
The Chicago Bulls enter this matchup as clear favorites, with odds of 1.68 reflecting their superior form and historical dominance over the Charlotte Hornets. Despite their recent struggles on the first leg of back-to-back sets, losing seven straight in such scenarios, the Bulls have consistently outperformed the Hornets in head-to-head contests, winning nine of their last ten meetings. This trend is hard to ignore, especially given Charlotte’s abysmal 4-14 record and defensive woes, including allowing opponents to shoot an alarming 50.5 percent from the field.
Coby White and Josh Giddey are instrumental to Chicago's success, combining for over 44 points and nearly 10 assists per game. Even with Tre Jones and Coby White listed as questionable, Nikola Vucevic provides a reliable third scoring option. On the other side, the Hornets will miss Brandon Miller, a key contributor, leaving Miles Bridges and LaMelo Ball to shoulder the offensive load against a Bulls defense that ranks among the league’s better units.
The betting line favors the Bulls by 3.5 points, and they’ve covered the spread in nine of their last ten road games against Southeast Division teams with losing records. Considering Charlotte’s seven-game losing streak and inability to cover the spread in their last four games against teams on the first leg of a back-to-back, it’s difficult to envision them turning things around here. While Chicago’s scheduling disadvantage adds intrigue, their overall superiority makes them a solid bet at 1.68.
Ultimately, the Bulls’ firepower and Charlotte’s glaring weaknesses make Chicago the safer and more profitable choice.
