Phoenix Suns Betting Preview
The Phoenix Suns have been doing it tough recently as they’ve dropped their last three games and they will be hoping for a better effort after getting thrashed by the Timberwolves in a 116-104 road defeat on Tuesday. Devin Booker led the team with 34 points, six rebounds and three assists; Oso Ighodaro added 16 points with 10 rebounds and four assists, while Collin Gillespie chipped in with 12 points and seven assists. As a team, the Suns shot just 38 percent from the field and 13 of 37 from the 3-point line as they got off to a great start with 39 points in the first quarter, but they couldn’t maintain that pace and scored just 41 points in the entire second half to allow the Timberwolves to run away with it. Jalen Green had a night to forget as he shot just three of 17 from the field to finish with just nine points and the Suns got next to nothing from their bench.
San Antonio Spurs Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the San Antonio Spurs have been in red-hot form, as they’ve won 19 of their last 21 games overall and they will be aiming for a fourth straight victory after smashing the Kings in a 132-104 road win on Tuesday. Victor Wembanyama led the team with 18 points, eight rebounds and three assists; Keldon Johnson added 18 points on eight of 12 shooting off the bench; Julian Champagnie scored 17 points; and Harrison Barnes chipped in with 16 points on six of seven shooting. As a team, the Spurs shot 52 percent from the field and a sizzling 25 of 49 from the 3-point line as they caught fire right away and exploded for 78 points in a dominant first half, which allowed them to pull their starters early and cruise the rest of the way.

Spurs vs Suns Prediction
The Suns are still missing Dillon Brooks and Mark Williams, with Royce O’Neale and Grayson Allen both questionable, while the Spurs have ruled out David Jones Garcia again. The Suns haven’t been at their best lately as they’re still dealing with some key injuries, but they’ve already beaten the Spurs twice out of three meetings this season, so they might be quietly confident coming into this one. However, the Spurs are one of the hottest teams in the league right now; they are almost fully healthy and they just made light work of the Kings in a big win on Tuesday. The line is a bit hefty, but I do expect the Spurs to get some sweet revenge with a comfortable win against a shorthanded Suns squad.
