Even in their recent loss to Milwaukee, they stayed competitive behind steady efforts from Coby White, Nikola Vucevic, and Josh Giddey. Minnesota arrives in a very different rhythm, dropping two straight after a long stretch of strong play.<\/p><p>A narrow overtime loss to Denver was followed by a flat defensive showing against Brooklyn, where even Anthony Edwards&rsquo; 28 points couldn&rsquo;t keep them close. With Chicago trending upward and the Timberwolves searching for answers, this meeting carries a very different energy for each side.<\/p><p><strong>Game Details<\/strong><\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>When:<\/strong> Monday, December 29, 2025 at 8:00 PM ET<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Where:<\/strong> United Center, Chicago, Illinois<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Arena:<\/strong> United Center<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>TV:<\/strong> FanDuel Sports Network Midwest &ndash; Nebraska<\/li>\n<\/ul><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recommended Bet and Updated Odds<\/h2><figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Recommended Bet<\/th><th>FanDuel<\/th><th>BetMGM<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Anthony Edwards 30+ Points<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-FanDuel-sports-us-en\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"-130 (opens in a new tab)\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>-130<\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-betmgm-sportsbetting-us-en\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"-140 (opens in a new tab)\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>-140<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Analysis and Rationale<\/h2><p>This is a strong spot for Anthony Edwards to clear the 30&#8209;point mark. Even during Minnesota&rsquo;s recent slump, he has remained their most reliable offensive force, dropping 28 points in the loss to Brooklyn and carrying much of the scoring load while the team struggles defensively.<\/p><p>With the Timberwolves coming off two straight defeats and needing a response, Edwards&rsquo; usage is likely to stay high. Chicago has been winning tight games, but their defense has shown cracks against elite scorers, making another high&#8209;volume night from Edwards very realistic.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Anthony Edwards 28 PTS, 7 REB, 2 AST, 1 STL, 10\/22 FG, 2\/7 3FG, 53.9% TS vs Nets <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/r5hPIfMAtp\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>https:\/\/t.co\/r5hPIfMAtp<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/I4bMtWNrkT\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/I4bMtWNrkT<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Basketball Performances (@NBAPerformances) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NBAPerformances\/status\/2005137591373639766?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>December 28, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bulls vs. Timberwolves Prediction<\/h2><p>The Bulls enter this matchup with real momentum, winning six of their last eight and climbing back into the play&#8209;in picture thanks to steady performances from Coby White, Nikola Vucevic, and Josh Giddey. Even in their loss to Milwaukee, they stayed competitive and continued to show the late&#8209;game composure that has fueled their recent surge.<\/p><p>Minnesota arrives in a very different rhythm. After winning 10 of 12, they&rsquo;ve now dropped two straight, including a flat defensive showing against Brooklyn where even Anthony Edwards&rsquo; 28 points couldn&rsquo;t keep them close. With the Timberwolves searching for defensive stability and Chicago trending upward, this matchup feels far more balanced than the standings suggest.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bulls vs.
