Thunder at Suns picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 126, Thunder 113

Moneyline

AVOID.

The Suns should cruise to a win at home, but taking them at the current odds (-900) isn't advised with the minimal profit you'd get if they get the victory.

Against the spread

SUNS -13.5 (-110) is where I'll lean in this game despite the Thunder being great ATS this season. Oklahoma City has already ruled out G Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and G Jalen Williams for Wednesday's matchup, while Phoenix is beginning to heat up with Durant in the lineup.

The Suns are also 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall.

Over/Under

OVER 233.5 (-110) is the pick in this game with the Suns being near full strength at home. Both of these teams are top 8 in offensive rating in their last 5 games overall.

The Thunder are 6-0-1 to the Over in their last 7 games overall. The Over has also been achieved in 5 of the last 7 meetings.
