Prediction

Suns 109, Celtics 103

Money line (ML)

The Suns have won four of their last five games and are playing pretty well. They will have fans in the arena for the first time this year so there will be some extra juice for the team. Boston is 5-5 straight up as an underdog but has won only four of its last 10 games. Take the SUNS -140.

Over/Under (O/U)

Phoenix’s games have gone Under almost 62% of the time. Take UNDER 215.5 (-110).
