Warriors vs. Suns Predictions For NBA on TNT, 4/8

It wasn’t long ago that a Warriors vs. Suns matchup seemed inevitable as one that we’d see for a Play-In Tournament game. However, both teams have had something to say about that, but in different directions.

The Warriors’ Jimmy Butler trade saw the surge UP the Western Conference standings, while the Suns have sunk below those Play-In Tournament spots for a multitude of reasons, most recently the Kevin Durant injury. 

There are also similarities with these teams in terms of glaring trends, specifically for bettors. One of them is going to have to break for tonight’s matchup, and rather than having to bank on either one of them, we’re going to focus the best bet from our Warriors vs. Suns predictions on a player prop market.

 

 

 

Golden State Warriors: Chef Curry Was NOT Cookin’

The NBA talks coming out of the weekend were primarily focused on the Los Angeles Lakers’ impressive road win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, which Stephen Curry certainly appreciated. That’s because not only did the Warriors lose to the Houston Rockets for the first time in virtually forever, Stephen Curry had a historically bad night.

After going 1-for-10 from the field and 1-for-8 from deep, Curry scored just a measly three points. That was the fewest in his entire illustrious career when playing 30 or more minutes. Also coming out of that game was yet another Draymond Green technical and flagrant foul, which is something that Golden State wants to avoid come playoff time.

 

 

 

Phoenix Suns: Devin Booker Makes History

While Stephen Curry was making history in a way that he’d like to forget, Suns’ Devin Booker was busy doing exactly the opposite. Although Phoenix has been a huge disappointment overall and their expectations are shot with the Kevin Durant injury Booker has nights of absolutely going off.

Sunday night was one of those against the New York Knicks. His 40 points were the first time that a Phoenix player ever scored 40+ at Madison Square Garden. There have been some epic performances in that building, so it’s a game he’ll likely never forget. As for the season overall, well, that’s a bit more forgettable.

Warriors vs. Suns Best Bet: Stephen Curry Over 4.5 Made Threes (3-PT Projection At PrizePicks Fantasy)

That’s right - after sharing how much Chef Curry was NOT cookin’ this weekend, we still trust the NBA’s all-time leading three-point shooter to get the job done. That’s even bricking a trend itself, and there are still the ones that we noted at the very beginning of our Warriors vs. Suns predictions.

That would be the combination of two conflicting trends. The Suns have been absolutely abysmal covering the spread this season; they have the second-worst record in the entire NBA in that regard. Despite that, the Warriors are actually the ones that are 0-3 against the spread versus Phoenix this season.

We also just saw both teams lose their most recent games, both on Sunday, by failing to score even 100 points. So, we’re just going to target Stephen Curry avenging his three-point performance, but even that in itself is going against a trend.

Curry has been far from dominant against the Suns this season, averaging less than 20 points per game against them this year. It’s even more of an anomaly that is the case given that Phoenix allows opponents to shoot the fourth-best three-point percentage this season. Therefore, we still trust Curry to have a statement game after so much criticism this weekend.

It’s also how he closed out last season against the Suns, as he had nine made threes. We even saw New York Knicks’ OG Anunoby make six threes against Phoenix on Sunday. If he can do that, then we’re confident locking in the best bet from our Warriors vs. Suns predictions on Stephen Curry over 4.5 made threes (use his player card in a PrizePicks Fantasy lineup).
