Phoenix Suns vs Toronto Raptors Prediction
The Suns have the better talent which makes this line interesting because it feels like we’re getting the better team and free points. However, the Suns continue to lose and are 19-36-1 ATS on the season which is the worst ATS record in the NBA. The Raptors have cashed 32 tickets and have seen 12 of their 17 wins come at home. I’ve been fading the Suns all year and it’s hard to stop. The Suns often look like a team that doesn’t like playing together and the results speak for themselves. The Suns need to string some wins together before I can take them seriously. Give me the Raptors and the small number.Â
