The Phoenix Suns face the New Orleans Pelicans in this second leg of their NBA two-game series on Sunday at the Smoothie King Center. The Suns will aim for a clean sweep of this series, having won the first leg on Saturday. Here is our prediction for the game.
Guard Devin Booker proved a thorn in the New Orleans Pelicans’ flesh in the first leg, scoring a game-high 30 points, plus nine rebounds and five assists to condemn the hosts to a 115–108 defeat. That result has seen the James Borrego-led side head into this game with back-to-back defeats.
They have posted a dismal 8–24 record overall this season and will be looking for their first win in four attempts against the Phoenix Suns on Sunday. They have lost their last three encounters with the Suns, each by at least seven points.
The Phoenix Suns secured their third win in four games after their first-leg win on Saturday. The Arizona-based franchise sits seventh in the standings with a decent 17–13 record, seven places above the New Orleans Pelicans. They have won three of their four most recent visits to the Smoothie King Center to face the New Orleans Pelicans.
