Betting on the Phoenix Suns
- Season record: 29-26.
The Phoenix Suns have ended their recent slump of poor results and improved in the standings. Despite Devin Booker’s absence, the leading scorer, they have been playing well lately.
The team’s recent win against the Detroit Pistons (116-100) on the road is a confidence boost as they had struggled away from home, losing 17 of their 27 road games.
With 8 wins in the last 10 games, and if they manage to keep this trend, the Suns have the potential to move up in the standings. They had a notable win against the Celtics, where they dominated and emerged victorious.
Betting on the Brooklyn Nets
- Regular Season Record: 32-20
The whole world put its spotlight on the Brooklyn Nets after Kyrie Irving’s trade request, and the trade was narrowly finalized to the Dallas Mavericks. With their second-best player sold and the team’s star player still injured, they find themselves in a complex situation that they hope to remedy with the players they got from Dallas.
However, there have little room for thought, as they will have to play the Suns after competing the day before against the Los Angeles Clippers. One of their objectives is to evaluate their offensive performance, which was already below average (114.4).
JefeBet Prediction
The Phoenix Suns are among the teams vying for KD, but their immediate focus is securing a win on the road. They will have to rely on their strong defense, which ranks in the top 5 with an average of 111.3 points allowed per game.
The Nets are not far behind, with an average of 112.3 points allowed per game, making them the 9th best defensive team. Considering their key absences on offense, they’ll have to rely on this if they want to make it until Durant returns to the court.
With both teams missing their top offensive player, this match is expected to be a low-scoring affair.
Prediction: Under.
