Point Spread Pick for Suns vs. Trailblazers
- Phoenix Suns to cover. (4 Units)
The Suns have won three of their last four games, while the Trailblazers have lost five straight games. Phoenix has the edge here because they’re playing well offensively, scoring more than 113 points per game, while making 46 percent of their shots. They’ve also done a better job at the charity stripe, making over 80 percent of their free throws on the road. They rebound the ball well and grab more than 13 offensive rebounds per game, which will give them more second-chance opportunities. They also cut down their turnovers in recent games, and won’t give the Blazers many easy-scoring chances. The Blazers aren’t playing well defensively, and they gave up more than 120 points per game in their last three games, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Suns. Take Phoenix to cover the spread.
