A High-Scoring Game
After supporting the Suns as the favourite winner in the Suns vs Warriors Predictions, the next prediction is for the game to exceed 220.5 points.
The Suns rank 12th in points per game, at 115.1. The Warriors are just ahead at 11th with 115.5 points per game. Their head-to-head history suggests high-scoring clashes, with five of the last six games totalling a minimum of 235 points.
The pick is for over 220.5 total points in the match for both teams combined.
Bet 2: Total Over 220.5 points
A Highly Productive First Quarter
In their recent encounter, 57 points were scored in the first quarter. A similar scenario is expected in this game. In the Suns’ last four games, over 50 points were scored in the opening quarter.
A fast start will set the tempo for the rest of the match.
In this market, we’re betting on the 1st quarter total. We need the teams to score 51 points or more between them in the first quarter for this bet to win.
Bet 3: 1st Quarter Total: Over 50.5
Stephen Curry Struggle vs Suns to Continue
Stephen Curry has been outstanding this season, ranking 7th in the NBA with an impressive average of 29.4 points per game. However, he struggled against the Suns, averaging just 21.5 points. He was notably limited to 16 points in their recent head-to-head.
We’re hoping for this form against the Suns to continue here. Steph has been one of the NBA’s outstanding players over the last few seasons but we’re opposing him on the lookout for betting value here.
For this bet to win, Stephen Curry needs to score 30 points or fewer throughout the match.
Bet 4: Stephen Curry Under 30.5 points
