Phoenix Suns vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction
I wouldn’t touch this game between two teams playing backups. The Thunder have the best record locked up and the Suns have a play-in game as the seventh seed. If forced to pick, I’d side with the Thunder. The Suns have had issues winning games at full strength, let alone with their backups. OKC is used to playing backups, as they’ve been in a lot of blowouts and what not. The Thunder’s second and third groups get more burn than your typical teams. The line isn’t crazy. Give me the Thunder at home.
