The Golden State Warriors and the Phoenix Suns will contest for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference on Friday.
Momentum: The Golden State Warriors get a chance to sneak into the playoffs after completing a comeback win over the Los Angeles Clippers 126-121. On the other hand, the Phoenix Suns were relegated to the battle for the No.8 spot in the playoffs after losing to the Portland Trail Blazers 110-114 in the other play-in matchup.
The Matchup: The Warriors won 3 out of 4 meetings with the Suns in the regular season. In their last head-to-head game last February 5, the Warriors took down Phoenix 101-97 without Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler, and Kristaps Porzingis. Backup guard Pat Spencer led the Warriors with 20 points, while Gui Santos and De’Anthony Melton chipped in 18 and 17 points, respectively.
Hot on the Board: The Suns are -155 moneyline favorites for this game and -110 to cover -3.0 points. The Warriors are the underdogs for the third consecutive game and second in this year’s play-in at +130. Caesars Sportsbook pegged the total at over/under 219 points, expecting a highly physical, low-scoring ballgame.

Our Phoenix Suns vs Golden State Warriors Prediction
Fearless Forecast: The Warriors outduel the Suns 115-113
Sharp Play: The Warriors will win. The years of championship contentions have long gone for Golden State, but remnants of this franchise’s glory days are still playing and competing to stay relevant in the postseason. Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Al Horford, and Kristaps Porzingis all have a championship to brag about. Each of them knows what it takes to win a high-stakes game.
On the other hand, the Suns will live or die with Devin Booker. If Booker goes off, the Suns have a chance to win this match. If he gets shut down, Phoenix is doomed. Jalen Green, Grayson Allen, and Dillon Brooks can put up steady numbers in supporting roles, but like what happened in the match vs. Portland, none of them can take over and lead the Suns to a win. It’s basically Booker or nothing for the Suns in this do-or-die game.
Our betting prediction for the Golden State Warriors vs. the Phoenix Suns: the Warriors will win.
