Why the Golden State Warriors could cover the spread
The Warriors enter this game in strong form, winning five of their last six matchups. Key factors in their favor include:
- Elite three-point shooting – Golden State leads the league with 15.4 threes per game, spearheaded by Steph Curry (28.4 PPG).
- Strong defense – They allow just 110.8 points per game, ranking among the league’s best defensive units.
- Suns’ defensive struggles – Phoenix ranks near the bottom in defensive rating and rebounding, making them vulnerable to Golden State’s offensive firepower.
The Suns’ ongoing six-game losing streak and chemistry issues between their star trio (Durant, Booker, Beal) further tilt the advantage toward the Warriors.
Why the Phoenix Suns could cover the spread
Despite their recent struggles, Phoenix has reasons to believe they can keep this game competitive:
- Devin Booker’s dominance – Booker dropped 40 points in his last game and remains a lethal scorer.
- Home-court advantage – The Suns hold a 23-15 record at Footprint Center this season.
- Potential for defensive adjustments – If Phoenix can disrupt Golden State’s three-point shooting and force turnovers, they could stay within the spread.
Bradley Beal’s recent bounce-back performance (16 points) also provides hope for secondary scoring.
