Suns vs 76ers prediction

Suns vs 76ers best bet: Over 224 (-110)

Both teams are expected to be at or near full strength tonight, which means a high-scoring affair.

Phoenix Suns G Jalen Green will return from a multi-week absence, and Philadelphia 76ers F Paul George is expected to be available. Even if Joel Embiid sits out the second leg of the back-to-back, Philly has more than enough firepower to put up points at home, and the return of Green to Phoenix’s lineup should give the offense a boost.

The Sixers have hit the Over in nine of 15 games as the home favorite, and the Suns have hit the Over in 10 of 17 as the road underdog.

Over the last 10 games, the Suns rank 10th in offensive rating at 116.4, and the Sixers are close behind in 11th at 116.3. In that span, the teams have combined to average 230.9 points, nearly seven points more than tonight’s total.

I’ll take the Over on this modest total as two emerging offenses go head-to-head.

Suns vs 76ers same-game parlay

The Sixers are just 10-12 ATS at home and 6-9 ATS as the home favorite, while the Suns are 15-9 ATS on the road and 9-8 as the road underdog. The spread is just one point, making this essentially a pick ’em, so betting Phoenix to win straight up as the underdog is the most sensible bet with the most profitable odds.

Devin Booker is averaging 10.5 rebounds+assists, and he’s recorded 10+ in 23 of 39 contests. He’s posted 11.2 rebounds+assists across his last five outings and hit the Over on this combo line three times in that span.
