The Chicago Bulls will attempt to play spoiler when they face the Philadelphia 76ers at 7 p.m. EST on Wednesday. While the Bulls are not officially eliminated from playoff contention, their season is essentially over, turning their remaining 11 games into an exercise in futility. However, some meaning could be found in an effort to deal the Sixers a crucial loss here. Philadelphia is a game behind the sixth-seeded Atlanta Hawks, setting the Sixers up to be a play-in team. Catching the red-hot Hawks is no easy task, but every game is an opportunity to do so, starting here.

While the Bulls have not entered the tanking races that have enveloped so many other sub-.500 teams in the NBA, they look like a far cry from the Chicago team that was winning games left and right at the start of the year. Part of that is the plethora of trade deadline departures that racked the roster, leaving head coach Billy Donovan with a team that no one could reasonably expect to be competitive. There are several intriguing building blocks, namely forward Matas Buzelis and center Jalen Smith, who figure to be part of the rebuild moving forward, providing some reason for optimism.

Philadelphia has its own reasons for optimism on Wednesday. This game will mark the return of forward Paul George, who missed 25 games because of a PED-related suspension. Star center Joel Embiid is also on the mend and looking to return before the playoffs, which would provide another much-needed boost to a depleted Sixers roster. Even without guard Tyrese Maxey, things are beginning to look up, and a win against Chicago would only reinforce that view.

Bulls vs 76ers Prediction and Pick

Peter Tran of PickDawgz writes, "The Bulls are still missing Anfernee Simons, Jaden Ivey, Zach Collins, and Isaac Okoro, with Guerschon Yabusele listed as day-to-day, while the 76ers have ruled out Tyrese Maxey and Kelly Oubre Jr. with Joel Embiid and Quentin Grimes both questionable. These teams have already met twice this season, with the Bulls winning both meetings by single digits, so we could be in for another close contest in this one. With that being said, the 76ers have opened as moderate favorites at home, but I expect this one to go down to the wire. I will be leaning towards the Bulls with the points in this spot."
