Result: Win
The Suns are coming into this game with a 41-29 record this season and they have been playing very well in their recent games. They have won their last 2 straight as well as 3 of their last 4 games with all 3 of those wins coming by 10+ points. They are going up against a Spurs team that is 15-55 this season and they are 8-26 at home. They have one of the worst records in the NBA this season and they are coming off of a 2 point loss at home against the Grizzlies in their last game, playing that game on Friday night as well so they are on a B2B here. They have lost their last 2 straight as well as 5 of their last 6 games with their only win in that span coming against the Nets. The Suns are currently sitting in 7th place right now which would be the 1st spot of the play-in tournament but they are also tied with the Mavericks who are in 6th place which is the last secured playoff spot so the Suns are going to be pushing to climb the standings here against one of the worst teams in the league and the Suns have been playing much better over the last few weeks now that their team is healthy. They are catching the Spurs in a bad spot since the Spurs are on a B2B here, but this is also going to be a revenge spot for the Suns. The Suns have played the Spurs twice this season with both of those games coming back at the beginning of the season in their first few games of the year and the Spurs won both of those games with Booker and Beal missing from the lineup, Booker missing for 1 of those games. This will be the 1st time this Spurs team has seen this specific Suns team with all of their talent healthy and the Suns are not going to hold anything back here with a chance to pass the Mavericks in the standings. The Suns will cover the spread in this game.
