Why the Suns can cover
Phoenix has been wildly inconsistent this season despite featuring two of the league’s best players in forward Kevin Durant and guard Devin Booker. Durant is averaging 27.3 points per game, with more than six rebounds and four assists. Booker is having another excellent statistical season, with 25.5 PPG, 3.9 rebounds, and 6.6 assists per contest.
Guard Bradley Beal (questionable, ankle) has been in and out of the starting lineup of late but still averages 17.1 points per game. The Suns recently acquired center Nick Richards from Charlotte in the hopes he can provide stability at center with Jusuf Nurkic struggling in 2024-25. In his first game in Phoenix, Richards scored 21 points and added 11 rebounds. The Suns look to get above .500 once again versus one of the league’s worst teams tonight. See which team to pick here.
Why the Nets can cover
Despite having arguably the longest injury list in the league, including leading scorer Cam Thomas, the Nets have played the Lakers and Knicks competitively in two of their last three games. Last night, the recently acquired guard D’Angelo Russell kept the Nets in the game by scoring 23 points and dishing out 10 assists. His teammate, former Suns forward Cameron Johnson added 16 points, though the two only combined to make 12 of their 37 shots.
For the Nets to once again play a closer game tonight, they will need their role players to step up. For example, reserve center Day’Ron Sharpe played less than 14 minutes last night but scored 10 points and was a +15 while on the court. Starting center Nicolas Claxton scored eight points and grabbed 12 rebounds, and the Nets need to keep the inconsistent Suns from breaking the game open early. If Brooklyn can manage to do that, then it can pose an upset threat once again. See which team to pick here.
