Why Bet on the Phoenix Suns?
The Suns are on another hot streak of eight wins in a row, with the most recent one featuring a victory over the Sixers. With four road games in seven remaining contests in the regular season, we anticipated the team to take it easy towards the end of the calendar. Head coach Monty Williams and company show no sight of slowing down. However, the team will approach Wednesday’s matchup with Cameron Johnson (quadriceps) and JaVale McGee (illness) on the questionable list.
Phoenix is a team that performs just as well on the road. They have an impressive away record of 30 wins and six losses. Overall, the team averages 115.3 points (third) per game on 48.8% shooting (first). The Suns have relentless shooters on their lineup, averaging 55.3% from two points (fourth) and 37.0% from deep (fourth).
Defense makes the overall system of the Suns effective. They keep teams under 107 points (eighth) per game and limit opponent shooting to 44.3% (third). Their shooting defense goes beyond the perimeter and holds teams to a 33.8% three-point shooting percentage (second). More than that, the Suns are fierce rebounders with DeAndre Ayton on their side, helping the team average 35.6 defensive boards (third) per game.
Why Bet on the Golden State Warriors?
The Warriors picked up another three-game losing streak after falling in the hands of the Grizzlies. This could be a sign of Steve Kerr holding the team back and saving his players for the playoffs, or a huge dent caused by Stephen Curry’s recent injury. Golden State is six for one now. With six games left on the calendar, it’s a must for the side to build all the momentum it can get before the playoffs commence.
Regardless of their performance, the Warriors still have plenty of solid numbers to show. They average 110.8 points (13th) per game on 46.7% shooting (ninth). The Warriors can easily keep up with the Suns’ figures, recording 55.8% two-point (third) and 36.0% three-point (ninth) shooting.
Defensively, the Dubs average 105.7 opponent points (fifth) per game. They also have competent shooting defense that will keep the Suns on their toes from start to finish. As a team, the Warriors limit teams to 44.0% shooting (second). They boast solid two and three-point shooting defense that keeps teams to 51.0% and 34.3%, respectively. Furthermore, Golden State holds better defensive rebounding numbers in the season, averaging 35.6 defensive boards (second) per game.

Suns vs. Warriors Expert Betting Prediction
Phoenix has been impressive throughout the season and is among the favorites to take the NBA title in 2022. The Warriors, on the other hand, struggle with multiple injuries. If the Dubs pull through this one, there’s a good chance that they perform well in the remaining week. However, the Suns remain the favorites in this one with more consistent results and a healthier roster coming into the game. Covering the spread shouldn’t be an issue for the hosts, but a win demands everything from Steve Kerr and company.
