Prediction
Suns 115, Grizzlies 105
Moneyline (ML)
The SUNS (-250) are coming off a 120-112 home win over the New York Knicks Friday following a 2-2 road trip. They have won three of four since losing eight straight. The Grizzlies (+200) have alternated wins and losses over their last eight games, and are coming off a 140-114 road win over the Los Angeles Clippers Saturday.
Phoenix should win this game. While it is seven games under .500, it is 8-7 when favored. Memphis is 12-20 as the underdog.

Line/Against the Spread (ATS)
The SUNS (-6.5, -106) haven’t been favored in many games this season and will need to win by at least 7 points Sunday. They are one of the best teams at covering the spread at 20-14-1. They are 10-8 ATS at home.
The Suns open a softer part of their schedule, and are missing only Kaminsky in terms of health and are back to playing tough like they did early in the season.
Over/Under (O/U)
The total is set at 232.5 points. Both teams hit the Over more often than not, with Phoenix going 21-14 with the Over and Memphis 20-16. At home, Phoenix has hit the Over in 13 of 18 games. The Suns have three top-scoring threats now with Deandre Ayton in the lineup and healthy. However, both games between the Suns and Grizzlies earlier this season hit the Under.
Go with the UNDER 232.5 (+105).
