How to Watch, Odds, Picks: Suns Visit 76ers

The Phoenix Suns are off to a great start thus far, exploding to a 7-2 start on the year.

The team seems to be firing on all cylinders, although questions still follow the team. Can Devin Booker continue his hot scoring form? When will the impact of playing without Cam Johnson show, and how will the bench respond when that happens?

The Philadelphia 76ers play host to Phoenix with a 4-4 record and are currently riding a two-game losing streak.

Philly has three players currently averaging 22 or more points per game in Joel Embiid (27.2), Tyrese Maxey (24.9) and James Harden (22).

Harden also only trails Chris Paul in assists averaged per game with 10.

The Suns are currently 2.5-point favorites on SI Sportsbook and -145 on the moneyline.

Action Network's Jason McKenna says to take the under:

"The Suns will likely hold their ground on defense as well and have held opponents to shooting just 44.3% from the floor.

"All in all, I think the absence of so many impact players on the offensive end of the floor, combined with two defenses that have defended well for most of the season, will cause this total to stay under 217. Both Philadelphia and Phoenix rank in the bottom five of the NBA in Pace, with both teams generating less than 98 offensive possessions per game.

"Back the under in this spot. (Under 217)"

You can watch Suns-76ers on Bally Sports Arizona or NBA League Pass. For streaming, it will be available on fuboTV (click here to start your free trial).
