Rockets vs. Suns Picks
Point Spread Pick for Rockets vs. Suns
- Houston Rockets -6 (4 Units)
The Rockets have the edge here because they’re one of the best offensive teams in the league, scoring more than 120 points per game on the road while making over 50 percent of their shots. They’ve also done a better job from long distance, making over 42 percent of their three-pointers on the road. They're also deep as they can bring Reed Sheppard off the bench, who is becoming a long-range threat. They rebound the ball well and grab more than 16 offensive rebounds per game, which will give them more scoring chances. They also cut down their turnovers in recent games, and won’t give the Suns many easy-scoring chances. The Suns aren’t playing well defensively, and they gave up more than 115 points per game in their last three games, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Rockets. Go with Houston to cover the spread.
Over/Under Pick for Rockets vs. Suns
- Under (4 Units)
The Rockets average 122.9 points per game. They play at the 27th-fastest pace in the league, averaging 102.5 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that is giving up 108.8 points per game at home. The Suns average 119 points per game. They play at the 20th-fastest pace in the league, averaging 104 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that gave up 109.7 points per game in their last three games. Don’t expect these teams to score enough points to push the score over the total. The Rockets and Suns played under the total in four of their last six meetings.
