On Wednesday, the Chicago Bulls travel to Arizona to face the Phoenix Suns at Footprint Center. This will be their second meeting of this season, with the previous one in Illinois being won by the Suns at home by four points.
Both teams are coming off wins into this matchup. The Chicago Bulls beat the Utah Jazz in their last outing and have four wins in their last five games. Meanwhile, the Suns won their last game against the Toronto Raptors at home but have managed only two wins in their last five outings.
Both teams are hopeful of an automatic playoff spot but are more likely to find themselves in the play-in round. The Bulls are ninth and 9.5 games behind the Pistons in sixth, while the Suns are 11th and eight games behind the Warriors.

This intra-conference game will be of huge significance to both teams' playoff hopes. Both teams will want to earn back-to-back wins, especially the Suns who are yet to do so since January.
