The Suns are 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Denver and 7-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings.

The Phoenix Suns are in a letdown spot after their upset win over the Warriors, and we can't ignore them playing poor basketball before last night. The Suns are still losing their last 5 games by an average of 10.4 points. It's also not easy to play in Denver on the end of a back to back. The Denver Nuggets win at home by an average of 10.7 points while shooting 51.8 percent from the field. Massive number, but give me the Nuggets.
