The Suns and Nuggets have faced each other twice this season in December and split victories, the last of which was in Phoenix, with the Suns winning 110-100 on Christmas Day, continuing a clear trend of parity between these teams, as the last 10 times they have faced each other they have split 5 wins each.

The Suns, without Durant and Beal on the court due to injuries, depended heavily on what Bookers was able to do in the last game to beat the Jazz, he scored 47 points in the victory where they had to resort to overtime to win. They would have lost that game where they had started as 7.5-point favorites in the betting if it weren't for Allen's late triple that forced overtime.

A report recently hit the Suns that one of the reasons the Suns didn't have the season they expected was due to a "toxic locker room" and the coach and Logan Allen himself came out to deny that with the latter saying "It was a very happy locker room. It was not toxic at all"

Now on Saturday they will face the Nuggets who have won each of their last 5 games. The last of them 112-90 in a game where Jokic achieved his 24th triple double of the season.

Our Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets Prediction

The Total Game line was set around 237 points for this new Suns-Nuggets weekend clash. Nuggets have a long list of players out due to injury, including the absence of Westbrook, Murray, and Porter. Porter remains questionable but with some probability that he will play on Saturday to continue his good moment. Without Durant and Beal, Suns will hardly be able to contain Jokic's good moment in Phoenix. Our prediction for Nuggets vs Suns is: Nuggets -4.5.

Prediction:

 

Nuggets -4.5
