The Phoenix Suns and Oklahoma City Thunder meet Friday in NBA action at the Paycom Center. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this game. Here’s a Suns vs Thunder prediction.
The Phoenix Suns recently beat the Hawks and Nuggets, while splitting two games against the Spurs. The Phoenix Suns are averaging 116.9 points on 49.6 percent shooting and allowing 113.9 points on 46.3 percent shooting. Kevin Durant is averaging 27.6 points and 5.2 assists, while Devin Booker is averaging 27.2 points and 4.8 rebounds. Bradley Beal is the third double-digit scorer and Grayson Allen is grabbing 3.8 rebounds. The Phoenix Suns are shooting 38.2 percent from beyond the arc and 80.4 percent from the free throw line. The Phoenix Suns are allowing 36.2 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 44.3 rebounds per game.
The Oklahoma City Thunder recently beat the Pelicans while losing to the Bucks and Rockets. The Oklahoma City Thunder are averaging 120.4 points on 49.9 percent shooting and allowing 113.2 points on 45.7 percent shooting. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 30.4 points and 6.3 assists, while Jalen Williams is averaging 19.4 points and 4 rebounds. Chet Holmgren is the third double-digit scorer and Josh Giddey is grabbing 6.2 rebounds. The Oklahoma City Thunder are shooting 39 percent from beyond the arc and 82.9 percent from the free throw line. The Oklahoma City Thunder are allowing 36.3 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 41.9 rebounds per game.
• Chet Holmgren rank 3rd amongst qualified players for steals + blocks per game (3.1) this season.
• Jalen Williams ranks 5th amongst qualified players for 3P% (43.6%) this season.
• Grayson Allen ranks 1st amongst qualified players for 3P% (47.8%) this season.
• Kevin Durant ranks 4th amongst qualified players for points per game (27.6) this season.
• The Thunder rank 1st in the league for blocks per game this season (6.6).
• The Thunder rank 1st in the league for opponent turnovers per game this season (15.8).
• The Suns rank 30th in the league for Q4 points per game this season (25.0).
• The Suns rank 30th in the league for Q4 win percentage this season (32.9%). Big game for both sides as the Thunder are fighting for the top seed in the West and the Suns are hoping to get out of the play-in tournament. The key here is that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is doubtful with a quadriceps injury. The Suns are healthy outside of Nurkic being questionable with an ankle injury. The Suns are also coming off a big upset win over the Nuggets. We also can't forget that the Thunder have cooled off ATS with covers in just 3 of their last 10 games. With SGA likely out, I'll lay the bucket with the Suns on the road.
