Phoenix Suns vs Golden State Warriors Prediction

The Warriors continue to get the benefit of the doubt with these lines, and they continue to lose games and not cover numbers. We just saw the Warriors lose to the Suns, and I expect a similar result if the Suns get reinforcements in Allen. The Warriors are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games as a favorite, and 6 of those failed covers were outright losses. I don’t think it’s crazy to say the Suns are the better team. The Suns have 3 outright wins this month as an underdog. Give me the points with the Suns yet again.
