Spurs at Bulls: Early-Season Look, No Pick Yet

The Spurs head to Chicago to face the Bulls on November 11, 2026, and it's a game that's still early enough in the calendar that every result carries more questions than answers. Nobody should be pretending they've got this one figured out yet.

Here's the honest state of play: we're working from a thin matchup sheet, and DarkHorse hasn't published a pick for this game. That means there's no official lean to hand you, and anyone flashing a confident side this early is mostly guessing with a louder voice.

What's worth watching is the stuff that always matters in November. Can the Bulls' rotations look settled at home? Does the Spurs' game hold up on the road, where travel and unfamiliar arenas can quietly drain a team? Early-season lineups and minutes distributions tend to be the wild card, so keep an eye on who's actually on the floor in the first quarter.

Our advice is simple: don't force a bet just because the game is on the board. Wait for the number to settle and for our pick to go live, then compare it against what you're seeing. Check back in The Stable for updates as the date approaches, and bring your skepticism. It's the most useful tool you've got in November.

Spurs in Chicago at 8 ET, and they come in 9-2 while the Bulls are 1-8. Reminds me of those old Pistons teams. Nobody respects the underdog until it's earned.

The 9-2 vs 1-8 gap is the number everyone's quoting, but it's still a small sample. Chicago also has Tobe Awaka out, so the Bulls are short on bodies too.

Spurs are missing Tobias Harris and Jayden Quaintance. Still a 9-2 team. Everyone is acting like Chicago is the story. It isn't.

Harris and Quaintance both out for San Antonio, so it's a different look for sure. Depth decides the ugly games, and both teams are patching rotations tonight.

Agreed on depth. Both benches are going to get real minutes at 8 ET, so this one could come down to who holds up in the fourth.
