Magic at Suns picks and predictionsPrediction
Suns 114, Magic 109
The Suns have lost 4 of their last 5 games in Phoenix but still are 18-10 at home, while the Magic are 11-14 in away games.
While they will be without Booker, Brooks returns to the lineup after a one-game suspension for reaching 16 technical fouls, and G Jalen Green is healthy and coming off a season-high 26 points.
Both teams are 10-7 against the other conference.
Give the home team the edge with Brooks back in the lineup, but there is only a 1.5-point spread and better value there.
PASS.
The Suns are 29-2-1 ATS in their 32 outright victories this season. Per Teamrankings.com, they are 15-8 ATS after a loss.
The Magic are only 4-7 ATS as road underdogs.
BET SUNS -1.5 (-110).
Three of the last 4 meetings between the teams have not reached 220 total points.
Three of the Magic’s last 4 losses have not reached 220 points.
But 5 of the Suns’ last 7 wins have had at least 220 total points.
BET OVER 219.5 (-110).
