NBA Betting Experts Make Picks for Suns-Warriors

In this story:
The Phoenix Suns are set to battle the Golden State Warriors on national television later tonight.
Neither of Devin Booker, Cam Payne or Chris Paul made the road trip with the Suns. Deandre Ayton won't play tonight either.
For the Warriors, Klay Thompson and Steph Curry are probable, only spelling more doom for Phoenix.
Here's what betting experts across the web like for tonight's action:
FanDuel Says Take the Over
Larry Rupp: "Yes, Phoenix has failed to surpass the 100-point mark in any of its last four games and will be without Booker as well as Chris Paul for this game. However, this is a perfect spot for the Suns' role players to step up. Golden State plays at the fastest pace in the NBA, which means shots will be flying tonight.
"These teams have already met twice this season. Mikal Bridges dropped 40 points across those contests, while Deandre Ayton chipped in with 30 points and 21 rebounds. The depth is still there for Phoenix and the total has hit the over in six of Golden State's last eight games played on a Tuesday.
"Bet: Over 229.5 Points (-110)"
MGM Highlights Potential Mikal Bridges Props
- Mikal Bridges has hit the Assists Over in 13 of his last 20 away games (+6.30 Units / 28% ROI)
- Mikal Bridges has hit the Points Under in 8 of his last 10 games (+5.65 Units / 44% ROI)
- Mikal Bridges has hit the Blocks Over in 6 of his last 7 away games (+4.90 Units / 60% ROI)
Covers.com Believes in Phoenix to Cover the Spread
Shawn Wronka: "No matter which way you look at Tuesday's matchup, the teams have been eerily close in just about every facet of the game. With the Warriors playing from home on Tuesday, they should have been favored by just a few points before accounting for Curry's return.
"After missing 11 games, it's likely the reigning Finals MVP will be on a minutes restriction, so that begs the question — is that version and limited availability of Curry worth nearly ten points on its own? Likely not.
"My best bet: Suns +12.5 (-110 at PointsBet)"
