The Phoenix Suns and Portland Trail Blazers meet Tuesday in NBA action at the Moda Center. The Phoenix Suns look for a win after winning 10 of their last 12 games. The Portland Trail Blazers look to snap a five-game losing streak.

Devin Booker is averaging 23.2 points and 4.9 rebounds, while Deandre Ayton is averaging 16.3 points and 11.1 rebounds. Chris Paul is the third double-digit scorer and Mikal Bridges is dishing 1.8 assists. The Phoenix Suns are shooting 36.9 percent from beyond the arc and 78 percent from the free throw line. The Phoenix Suns are allowing 34.4 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 45.4 rebounds per game.
The Portland Trail Blazers are averaging 108.3 points on 45.3 percent shooting and allowing 111.2 points on 47.2 percent shooting. Damian Lillard is averaging 21.6 points and 4.3 rebounds, while CJ McCollum is averaging 20.6 points and 4.5 assists.

The Suns are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 road games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The Trail Blazers are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The under is 4-0 in Suns last 4 overall. The over is 7-1 in Trail Blazers last 8 Tuesday games. The Suns are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings.
The Phoenix Suns may be banged up and on the end of a back to back, but they continue to win and cover numbers, and it's going to take more than one loss to knock me off the bandwagon. The Portland Trail Blazers have Lillard back, but they didn't look good against the Timberwolves, and they're losing their last five games by an average of 17.2 points. The Trail Blazers are a mess right now, with or without their best player back on the court. I'll lay the bucket.
