The Phoenix Suns and the Oklahoma City Thunder collide at the Paycom Center in the NBA Cup on Wednesday night. Here’s a Phoenix Suns vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction. This article will include a Phoenix Suns vs Oklahoma City Thunder Pick.
Phoenix Suns Betting Preview
The Phoenix Suns have cooled off a bit lately as they’ve split their last eight games, but they will be eager to build some momentum after outlasting the Timberwolves in a gritty 108-105 road win on Monday. With Devin Booker sitting out injured, other Suns players needed to pick up the slack. They did just that as Mark Williams led the team with 22 points on seven of nine shooting, Collin Gillespie added 19 points with six rebounds and four assists, while Dillon Brooks chipped in with 18 points on seven of 20 shooting.
As a team, the Suns shot 46 percent from the field and 12 of 33 from the 3-point line, but this win was more about their effort on the defensive end. They held the Timberwolves to just 23 points in the first quarter to take the lead into halftime. Before they opened the fourth quarter on a 14-3 run to start to take a crucial 11-point lead, which was just enough to hold off a late charge from the Timberwolves.
Oklahoma City Thunder Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Oklahoma City Thunder have continued their near-perfect start to the season as they’ve now won 23 of their first 24 games. They will be looking to build on their current 15-game win streak after making light work of the Jazz in a 131-101 road win on Sunday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander sat out the game but he wasn’t even required with Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams each scoring 25 points while Aaron Wiggins provided the spark off the bench with 19 points on six of nine shooting.
As a team, the Thunder shot a sizzling 58 percent from the field and 21 of 42 from the 3-point line as they stormed out of the gates and exploded for 45 points in the first quarter to take a 26-point lead into halftime. They didn’t take their foot off the gas until the lead ballooned to 42 points. Jaylin Williams had a quiet game of just five points on two of seven shooting, but the bench delivered as they had four reserves finishing in double figures in scoring.

Phoenix Suns vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction
The Suns are still missing Isaiah Livers and Jalen Green with Devin Booker upgraded to questionable, while the Thunder are still missing Isaiah Joe and Isaiah Hartenstein. The good news is that they expect to have Shai Gilgeous-Alexander back in the lineup. The Suns have been flying under the radar a bit this season as they’ve already beaten a bunch of good teams already. They are coming into this one fresh off an upset win over the Timberwolves despite missing their leading scorer in Devin Booker who might be out again.
The last time these teams met, the Thunder won by 123-119 back on Nov 10 and the Suns were able to easily cover as massive underdogs. The Suns will have to be at their absolute best to challenge the Thunder, but they have already done that once this season and I think they can keep it relatively close once again.
