PASS.
There is minimal value on the Spurs (-225), who are undefeated and off to their best start in team history.
BET SPURS -5.5 (-110).
The Spurs have covered or pushed in each of their 5 games this season, including twice on the road and 4 times as favorites. Behind Wembanyama — who is averaging 30.2 points, an NBA-best 14.1 rebounds and a league-leading 4.8 blocks per game (2.6 more than the next-highest) — San Antonio has looked dominant. Facing a Suns team that has looked out of sorts at times, there’s no reason not to back the road team.
The Suns have failed to cover in 3 of their 4 games as underdogs this season.
BET OVER 227.5 (-110).
The Spurs have scored at least 118 points in 4 of their 5 games this season, including 120 or more 3 times.
The Suns have hit the Over in 4 of their 6 games, scoring at least 111 in 5. They have allowed 129 or more in 3 of their last 5 games.
While the Spurs’ defense, backed by Wembanyama, has been solid this season, Booker and the Suns have proven their ability to score in droves, creating a great opportunity for the Over to hit.
