After a slow start to the month, the Phoenix Suns have been on a hot streak lately, looking to make it five wins in a row against the visiting Dallas Mavericks. On Tuesday, the Mavs came up short against Washington despite an impressive outing from Luka Doncic (41 points, 15 rebounds and six assists). Dwight Powell and Spencer Dinwiddie contributed 22 and 20 points respectively. Phoenix is hoping to use their momentum to secure another win Thursday night.
As for injuries, well the Mavs are playing without starting center Christian Wood. As for the Suns, they are still without Devin Booker has he continues to progress in his recovery from a strain right groin. However, Deandre Ayton is probable for tonight as game as he comes back from an illness.
When we dig into some come betting trends, one thing that stood out for the Suns is that they are 1 and 4 against the spread in their last 5 road games versus a team with a winning home record, and tonight’s opponent is are 18- 7 at home. That’s good news for the Suns, and to add to that good news, Phoenix is are 4-0 against the spread in their last 4 games overall, in their last 4 home games and playing on 1 days res
That said, its obvious who I am going with for tonight’s game. I’m taking the Phoenix Suns at -1 and a half for my free pick of the day. Everything is point towards them to win this game and to cover the spread.
