Game Preview
The Suns won three straight games at home, beating the Trail Blazers, the 76ers, and the Miami Heat. Their narrow victory over the Heat, 115-112, was worth gold, and it came in the final period, with the Suns trailing 15 points at one moment.
Phoenix needs to improve its turnover rate, as they had 16 against Miami. Other than that, everything was OK. Durant scored 32 points, Booker 22, and Jusuf Nurkic added 20 with 18 boards.
Dallas will play its fifth game at home in a row, and for the moment, Luka and the crew have two wins and defeats each. Their latest clash was against the Chicago Bulls, whom they easily defeated 119-99.
The Mavs had 33 assists, which was great. Luka alone dished 13, and besides that, scored 27 points with seven boards. Daniel Gafford and Kyrie Irving added 17 each.
Suns vs. Mavericks Head to Head
The Suns have already defeated the Mavs once this year. It was on October 26, 114-102, when KD showed a “too small” gesture towards Luka. Remember that?
Suns vs. Mavericks Prediction
Suns have been on fire, and we believe they will extend their stretch against the inconsistent Mavericks.
