Sportsbook Wire: Suns 118, Trail Blazers 110
Jess Root writes: "The Blazers have been the only team to beat the Suns and have done so twice. They are 7-1 ATS and have covered the spread in 3 straight games. The Suns had covered the spread in 5 straight before their loss on Friday and their average margin of victory in those games was 16.6 points. However, after seeing Portland play the Suns very evenly in 2 games this season, laying 10.5 points doesn’t seem wise."

Chinmay Vaidya writes: "Portland got the win Friday even with Anfernee Simons sidelined. The Blazers guard is questionable for Saturday’s game, while the Suns are likely to be without Cam Johnson. Johnson left Friday’s game on crutches and is dealing with a knee injury. Both teams are more familiar with each other but that rarely results in a blowout. Take Portland to cover a double-digit spread."
Tony's Picks: Suns 119, Trail Blazers 105
It writes: "Take Phoenix Saturday night to do enough on their home floor to extend their win streak. The Phoenix Suns will get by the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday leading to their seventh win of the season predicted to win and cover 119-105."
