Cavaliers Aim for 12th Straight Win Against Bulls in Monday’s NBA Clash

The Cleveland Cavaliers, the only unbeaten team in the NBA, are set to face the Chicago Bulls on Monday, November 11, as they seek to extend their winning streak to 12 games. The Cavaliers have been dominant this season, sitting atop the Eastern Conference with a perfect 11-0 record. They have been led by a strong core of players including Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, Jarrett Allen, and Evan Mobley, who have collectively propelled the team to top-10 rankings in both offensive and defensive ratings[2][6].

Darius Garland, in particular, has been on a hot streak, averaging 20.5 points, 6.6 assists, and 1.9 rebounds per game, with an impressive 47.5% shooting percentage from 3-point range. Garland’s recent form has seen him hit the over on his points total in three of the last four games, including a 39-point performance against the Milwaukee Bucks on November 4[2].

The Chicago Bulls, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back from a mixed start to the season, currently standing at 4-6. Despite their record, the Bulls have shown promising signs, particularly in their last game where they ended a four-game losing streak with a 125-113 win over the Atlanta Hawks. Nikola Vucevic led the way with 18 points and 12 rebounds, highlighting the team’s balanced scoring and rebounding efforts[6].

The matchup is expected to be competitive, with the Cavaliers favored by 7.5 points according to the latest odds. The over/under for total points is set at 237.5. Historically, the Cavaliers have dominated recent meetings, winning seven of their last 10 head-to-head matchups against the Bulls, although the teams split those games against the spread[6].

The game tips off at 8 p.m. ET at the United Center in Chicago, with the Cavaliers aiming to maintain their unbeaten record and the Bulls seeking to upset the league leaders[6].
