Prediction
The Phoenix Suns have risen.
When the series left Denver, the Nuggets were in a commanding 2-0 lead and looked absolutely dominant doing it. Turns out all the Suns needed was some home cooking, as they were able to win Games 3 and 4 in Phoenix to climb right back into the series.
Devin Booker and Kevin Durant were fantastic in Games 3 and 4 to lead the Suns to massive wins in both games and they will have to be huge once again tonight to knock off Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets at home.
Just sensational stuff from Booker all playoffs and that will no doubt continue tonight.
Even though Game 4 ended in a defeat for the Nuggets, Nikola Jokic was spectacular dropping 53 points and 11 assists.
The Nuggets will need more of the same again tonight from the Joker to take care of business at home.
Best Bet
All in all, this series has come down to the play of the Superstars. And tonight will be no different.
Devin Booker and Kevin Durant have been almost unstoppable over the past 2 games and think that continues again tonight. I am not sure if it ends in a Suns win but I love them to cover.
Give me the Suns with the points to keep this one tight and possibly even steal Game 5 on the road.
Suns +6.5 (-108) Bet Rivers
Player Prop of the Game
Michael Porter Jr. o6.5 Rebounds (-108) BetOnline
Quitely, MPJ has been fantastic on the glass so far this series.
He has 10+ rebounds in the last 2 games and I expect more of the same again tonight from the talented wingman.
This is also worth a ladder as well.
He has 9+ rebounds in 5 of his last 10 games. The other 5 he didn’t even hit his regular line.
I love Porter Jr. to flirt with a Double-Double yet again tonight, and the value on the 10+ is too good to pass up.
Bonus: Porter Jr. 10+ Rebounds (+380) BetOnline
