Denver Nuggets at Phoenix Suns Game 4 odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Denver Nuggets at Phoenix Suns Game 4 odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Denver Nuggets take on the Phoenix Suns in Game 4 of their Western Conference semifinals series Sunday. Denver leads the series 2-1. Tip-off at Footprint Center is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET (TNT). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Nuggets vs. Suns odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Nuggets lost 121-114 Friday in Game 3 as they failed to cover as 4-point underdogs despite C Nikola Jokic producing 30 points, 17 rebounds, and 17 assists. Denver had won 3 consecutive playoff games before the loss.

The Suns got 39 points from F Kevin Durant and 47 points from G Devin Booker in Friday’s much-needed victory as they try to get back in the series after losing 2 games in Denver. The rest of Phoenix’s roster contributed only 35 points as G Chris Paul was sidelined with a groin injury.

Nuggets at Suns picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 119, Nuggets 115

Moneyline

Back the SUNS (-145) at home in Sunday’s playoff matchup as they look to avoid falling in a 3-1 hole in the series. The Suns are 31-14 at home this season — including the playoffs — compared to the Nuggets’ 20-24 record on the road.

Against the spread

SUNS -2.5 (-110) is the lean in this showdown with Phoenix hoping to even the series Sunday. I’m expecting stellar performances from Durant and Booker again, while the other contributors on the Suns will perform better.

Over/Under

BET OVER 227.5 (-110).

Both of these teams are capable of scoring points in bunches as the Suns seemingly play at a slightly faster pace with Paul sidelined. The Nuggets are 5-1-1 to the Over in their last 7 games and the Suns are 5-0-1 in the last 6 home games.

The Over is also 12-4 in the last 16 meetings in Phoenix.

Denver Nuggets at Phoenix Suns odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Denver Nuggets at Phoenix Suns odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Denver Nuggets (51-25) face the Phoenix Suns (41-35) on Friday at Footprint Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET (NBA TV). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Nuggets vs. Suns odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Nuggets lost to the New Orleans Pelicans 107-88 on Thursday and failed to cover as 1.5-point home favorites. Denver is 3 games ahead of the Memphis Grizzlies for the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference.

The Suns covered as 6-point home favorites in Wednesday’s 107-100 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Phoenix is half a game ahead of the Los Angeles Clippers for the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference.

This will be the third season meeting between Denver and Phoenix. The Nuggets have won each of the first two meetings straight up, although they’ve split against the spread, and the Over/Under is 1-1.

Nuggets at Suns picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 121, Nuggets 110

Moneyline

AVOID.

Even with the Suns (-425) at full health, taking them to win on Friday isn’t worth the risk. You shouldn’t risk more than 4 times your potential return against the Western Conference-leading Nuggets.

Against the spread

SUNS -10.5 (-105) is how I’d bet on the spread with the uncertainty surrounding the starters on the Nuggets. Denver is on the 2nd leg of a back-to-back and early reports indicate that C Nikola Jokic is questionable after missing Thursday’s contest and G Jamal Murray is unlikely to play.

The Suns are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following an ATS win and the Nuggets are 2-7 ATS in the last 9 meetings.

Over/Under

OVER 226.5 (-108) looks like a solid bet with the Suns having F Kevin Durant back in the lineup. Both of these teams are top 12 in offensive rating.

The Suns are 9-3-1 to the Over in their last 13 games overall and the Over is 10-3 in the last 13 meetings in Phoenix.

Minnesota Timberwolves at Phoenix Suns odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Minnesota Timberwolves at Phoenix Suns odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Minnesota Timberwolves (39-37) face the Phoenix Suns (40-35) on Wednesday at Footprint Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 10 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Timberwolves vs. Suns odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Timberwolves edged out the Sacramento Kings 119-115 Monday as 5-point road underdogs. Minnesota is on a 4-game win streak and is only half a game back of the Golden State Warriors for the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference.

The Suns covered as 4.5-point road favorites in their 117-103 win over the Utah Jazz Monday. Phoenix is currently the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference.

This will be the third season meeting between the Timberwolves and the Suns. The teams split the first two meetings while the Over cashed in both.

Timberwolves at Suns picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 122, Timberwolves 115

Moneyline

AVOID.

The Suns (-210) are expected to secure the victory at home, but taking them to win straight up isn’t worth the risk at the current odds.

Against the spread

SUNS -5.5 (-105) is my play here assuming Durant returns for Phoenix. Durant could make his home debut with the Suns on Wednesday and Phoenix has looked nearly unstoppable when the All-Star forward has played.

The Timberwolves are 7-18-1 ATS in the last 26 meetings with the Suns and 1-4 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Phoenix.

Over/Under

BET OVER 235.5 (-108).

Even though this is a high total, both of these teams could be nearing full strength on Wednesday. This is a pace-up game for Phoenix and there are plenty of capable scorers involved in this matchup.

The Suns have hit the Over in 6 of their last 7 home games and the Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings with the Timberwolves.

Oklahoma City Thunder at Phoenix Suns odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Oklahoma City Thunder at Phoenix Suns odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Oklahoma City Thunder (31-34) take on the Phoenix Suns (36-29) Wednesday at Footprint Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Thunder vs. Suns odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Thunder defeated the Golden State Warriors 137-128 Tuesday and covered as 4.5-point underdogs at home. Oklahoma City is on a 3-game winning streak.

The Suns covered as 2-point road favorites in Sunday’s 130-126 win over the Dallas Mavericks. Phoenix is also on a 3-game winning streak with F Kevin Durant seeing increased minutes recently.

Oklahoma City and Phoenix will face each other for the 2nd time this season. The teams pushed the 9-point spread as the Suns won 124-115 and the Over hit in the 1st meeting in Phoenix on Feb. 24.

Thunder at Suns picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 126, Thunder 113

Moneyline

AVOID.

The Suns should cruise to a win at home, but taking them at the current odds (-900) isn’t advised with the minimal profit you’d get if they get the victory.

Against the spread

SUNS -13.5 (-110) is where I’ll lean in this game despite the Thunder being great ATS this season. Oklahoma City has already ruled out G Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and G Jalen Williams for Wednesday’s matchup, while Phoenix is beginning to heat up with Durant in the lineup.

The Suns are also 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall.

Over/Under

OVER 233.5 (-110) is the pick in this game with the Suns being near full strength at home. Both of these teams are top 8 in offensive rating in their last 5 games overall.

The Thunder are 6-0-1 to the Over in their last 7 games overall. The Over has also been achieved in 5 of the last 7 meetings.

Phoenix Suns at Charlotte Hornets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Phoenix Suns at Charlotte Hornets odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Phoenix Suns (33-29) take on the Charlotte Hornets (20-43) on Wednesday at Spectrum Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Suns vs. Hornets odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Suns covered as 3.5-point road underdogs in Sunday’s 104-101 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Phoenix is 6-4 in its last 10 games and F Kevin Durant is expected to make his debut on Wednesday.

The Hornets beat the Detroit Pistons 117-106 on Monday and covered as 7-point home favorites. Charlotte is amid a 5-game winning streak, but G LaMelo Ball will miss the rest of the season after fracturing his ankle in the win.

The Suns and the Hornets will square off for the second time this season on Wednesday. Phoenix cruised to a 128-97 victory as 7.5-point home favorites and the Over (222.5) connected on Jan. 24.

Suns at Hornets picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 119, Hornets 104

Moneyline

AVOID.

The Suns (-500) should be able to win with ease on Wednesday, but taking them straight up isn’t advised at the current odds.

Against the spread

Despite it being a massive spread, SUNS -10.5 (-108) is the ideal choice in this matchup. Even though Durant will likely be on a minutes restriction for his debut, he should be a positive addition to an already-talented team.

The Suns are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a loss and they’ve defeated the Hornets by an average of 32 points in the last 3 meetings.

Over/Under

UNDER 228.5 (-115) is the pick in this game as the Hornets will struggle to score without Ball on the floor. The Suns are also 8th in defensive rating this season.

Phoenix is 5-1 to the Under in its last 6 road games while Charlotte is 5-0 to the Under in its last 5 games following a win and 4-0 to the Under in its last 4 games overall.

Prediction

Suns 112, Clippers 107

The SUNS (-110) is who I’m siding with in this matchup with them playing at home. Phoenix is 20-9 at home and G Devin Booker is expected to play.

Against the spread

SUNS +1.5 (-120) is the lean if you want a single point of insurance on the home side. Phoenix is 14-9 ATS as a home favorite this season.

The Clippers are 1-4 ATS in the last 5 meetings against the Suns.

Over/Under

We’ve seen some low-scoring games between the Clippers and the Suns, which makes UNDER 223.5 (-108) the ideal choice. There have been fewer than 224 points scored in 6 straight meetings.

Hawks at Suns picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 119, Hawks 115

Moneyline

BET SUNS (-120).

Phoenix has been playing well recently, and even if Young is active for the Hawks they have struggled to win games, especially on the road where they have a 12-15 record.

Against the spread

SUNS -1.5 (-112) is how I’d wager on the spread with the idea that they can win at home by at least 2 points. You can just take the moneyline for Phoenix if you aren’t confident in the spread hitting.

The Hawks have gone 2-3 ATS in their last 5 games and the Suns are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games.

Over/Under

Despite Booker not being on the court for the Suns, I still lean OVER 230.5 (-108). Both of these teams are top 14 in offensive rating and this could be a pace-up game for Phoenix.

The Hawks are 7-1 to the Over in their last 8 games overall, while the Suns have gone Over in each of their last 4 games against a team with a losing record. The Over is also 6-0 in the last 6 head-to-head meetings.

Suns at Wizards picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 117, Wizards 110

Moneyline

I’ll take the SUNS (-135) on the road after they defeated the Grizzlies Tuesday. While the Wizards won on Tuesday as well, it’s been tough to trust them even with G Bradley Beal in the lineup.

Against the spread

It remains to be seen if G Devin Booker will return for the Suns Wednesday after he missed Tuesday with a groin injury. Even with his status unknown, SUNS -2.5 (-110) is an intriguing wager with G Chris Paul, F Mikal Bridges, and C Deandre Ayton still available.

The Suns are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 meetings with the Wizards and 13-3 ATS in their last 16 road meetings against the Wizards.

Over/Under

OVER 223.5 (-112) is where I’m leaning in this game regardless of Booker’s status. The Suns have put up 125 points in back-to-back games and those came against solid defensive teams in the Grizzlies and the Denver Nuggets.

The Suns have hit the Over in 8 of their last 9 games against a team with a winning home record. The Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings between these sides in Washington and 7-2 in the last 9 meetings overall.

Grizzlies 118, Suns 110

Moneyline

Considering that Booker won’t be available for the Suns, GRIZZLIES (-130) is the ideal choice in this game. There’s also a chance the Grizzlies get Bane back on the court on Friday night.

Against the spread

GRIZZLIES -2.5 (-105) is an enticing wager in this game with the Grizzlies coming off a disappointing loss to the Nuggets. The Suns are also missing their best offensive player in Booker and have struggled to win with him not on the court.

The Grizzlies are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games against a team with a winning record and they are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 road meetings against the Suns. Meanwhile, the Suns are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss.

Over/Under

Even though Booker won’t be available, OVER 224.5 (-110) is still the ideal choice to wager on the total in this game. Both of these teams are top 11 in offensive rating this season, so plenty of points could be scored on Friday night.

The Suns have hit the Over in 4 of their last 5 games against a team with a losing road record.

Wizards at Suns picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 123, Wizards 112

Moneyline

Go ahead and PASS on the moneyline in this game despite the Suns being heavily favored at home. Taking Phoenix straight up isn’t worth doing considering the current odds for the Suns to win.

Against the spread

Even with G Bradley Beal returning in Washington’s last game, SUNS -6.5 (-115) appears to be the ideal choice given how these 2 teams are currently playing. There’s also a chance the Suns will have G Devin Booker available on Tuesday after he sat out the 1st leg of a back-to-back on Monday.

The Wizards are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a loss and they are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games with a winning record. On top of that, Washington is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 meetings with Phoenix.

Over/Under

OVER 228.5 (-110) is an enticing bet in this contest. The Suns have the 2nd-best offensive rating in the NBA and the Wizards have Beal, F Kyle Kuzma, and C Kristaps Porzingis on the court together, so they are capable of scoring enough points to help us hit the Over.

The Suns have hit the Over in 6 straight games following a win and they’ve achieved the Over in 5 straight following an ATS win. Also, the Over is 7-1 in the last 8 meetings between the Wizards and the Suns.
