Phoenix Suns – statistics & current form

The Suns prevailed 127-124 in the only duel so far this season. The high score shows the respective offensive strength of the teams. In the end, three players scored at least 30 points. This included Devin Booker on the side of the hosts.

The guard is already the best scorer on the side of the basket ball hunters from the Valley and is currently particularly challenged, because with Chris Paul his congenial partner in the backcourt is out. Head Coach Monty Williams can also rely on the home bonus: Only eight of the 37 completed home games were lost – joint best with the Warriors in the West!

Chicago Bulls – statistics & current form

The Bulls once again have two very accurate players in DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine. Both players were named All-Stars this year and together they average around 53 points per game!

However, at least DeMar DeRozan’s performance has dropped off a bit lately. After an incredible streak of seven games with at least 35 points by the middle of last month, the balances have been down recently.

Phoenix Suns – Chicago Bulls Tip

For the clash between the Phoenix Suns and Chicago Bulls, the betting on more than 24.5 points by Zach LaVine on the part of the visitors is a good option. Although the current road trip of the guests is not going well, as the two previous away games at the Kings from Sacramento and in Utah were both lost, but at least the shooting guard acts reliably.

Even a minor knee injury does not seem to affect him significantly and the drop in performance of DeMar DeRozan he compensates at least somewhat with consistently strong performances. For example, LaVine exceeded the selected limit in points in four of the past five league games.

On top, the 27-year-old scores better away than in home games. His average scoring value in away games is 26.4 points, while it is noticeably lower in home games with 23 points. The prediction is supported by his performance in the only direct duel with Phoenix so far, when he delivered a whopping 32 points.
