Betting on the Phoenix Suns
- Regular Season Record: 20-21
The Phoenix Suns were expected to dominate the Western Conference, but the goddess of fortune had other plans for them, as injuries have greatly diminished the team’s ability to compete.
So much so that the Arizona franchise comes into this game with a streak of six consecutive losses and nine losses in its last ten games, largely due to the absence of its two best players, Devin Booker and Chris Paul.
To illustrate, the Suns have failed to surpass 100 points in any of their games this 2023, with the last being a 112-98 loss to the Cavaliers. So, things may not change much this time around.
Betting on the Golden State Warriors
- Regular Season Record: 20-20
The Golden State Warriors have had their share of struggles this campaign. During the beginning of the season, a drop in level of performance did not allow the team to be at the top of the division, and when things seemed to recover, the worst occurred: Stephen Curry got injured, who has not played a game since mid-December.
Not only is Curry out, but Klay Thompson could also be absent for this game, and his availability will be evaluated until the last minute. Thompson was not in Golden State’s last game, which they lost 115-101 to the Orlando Magic, their second loss in a row.
The defense has been an area of improvement for the Warriors this 2023, as the team allowed an average of 126 points per game in their three games this calendar year.
JefeBet Prediction
If in the end Klay Thompson fails to recover, we will probably see a duller Suns vs Warriors than anticipated and it will become a secondary commitment.
With both offenses quite depleted, it would not be unusual to see a game where there are not many points scored as there will be many role players taking minutes and game plans will have to be modified.
The Suns already struggle to play without their stars; and while the Warriors have alternatives, they probably won’t score much either.
Prediction: Under.
