What you need to know about the Suns
Phoenix managed a 112-108 win over the Washington Wizards on Sunday. The Suns were down 53-37 with 2:55 left in the second quarter, but they still came back for the handy four-point victory. Kevin Durant had 28 points, five rebounds and five assists in the victory, while Devin Booker had 27 points and eight assists.
With Bradley Beal (ankle) on the shelf once again for at least two weeks, Booker and Durant will continue to refine their chemistry as the top two scoring options. The Suns rank eighth in the NBA in 3-point defense (35.4%) this season while ranking 11th in 3-point shooting (37.3%). See which team to pick here.
What you need to know about the Trail Blazers
Meanwhile, the Trail Blazers’ recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Sunday after their seventh straight loss. They took a 118-114 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Golden State Warriors. The losing side was boosted by Jerami Grant, who scored 30 points to go along with seven rebounds and six assists.
Anfernee Simons also had 24 points and seven assists in the loss but went 0-for-5 from the 3-point line. Simons is averaging 25.7 points and 5.6 assists in the seven games he’s played this season after missing six weeks following a thumb injury he suffered in the first game of the season. Portland could be shorthanded tonight as well as Shaedon Sharpe (adductor) is questionable. See which team to pick here.
