3. Chicago Bulls at San Antonio Spurs (5:00 PM ET)
Matchup To Watch: Jimmy Butler vs Kawhi Leonard
This otherwise mediocre matchup is helped by the potentially epic Christmas Day contest between Jimmy Butler and Kawhi Leonard.
Most would argue that Leonard asserted himself as a superstar in the NBA last season. Butler has more than likely joined that elite tier this season.
For nothing more than the matchup of these two perimeter stars, this game should be very entertaining.
Having other big and notable names like Dwyane Wade, Rajon Rondo and LaMarcus Aldridge should only improve the appeal of this game.
Any NBA fan who loves marquee player matchups can’t go wrong by picking this Chicago-San Antonio game.
