Washington Wizards vs Phoenix Suns Prediction

I like the Suns in the underdog role a lot more, and we’ve made nice coin on them this season when oddsmakers keep throwing out these strange numbers. This is a drastic change. However, the Wizards stink, and it’s hard to go against the Suns, who are now 26-10-2 ATS on the season. With a cover percentage of 72.2 percent, the Suns are head and shoulders the best team to back in the NBA. Insane chalk or not, I’m just not stepping in front of that cover success. I’ll keep riding the hot hand. Give me the Suns.
