In this story:


Both the Phoenix Suns and Golden State Warriors are 2-1 heading into Tuesday's meeting at the Footprint Center, and the home advantage just might be enough for the home team in the Valley.

The Suns are 1.5-point favorites over the Warriors on SI Sportsbook while being -125 on the moneyline. 

Both teams are 1-2 against the spread thus far, and neither team has been underdogs before this matchup. Both teams also lost their lone game of the year on Friday, as Golden State fell to Denver while Phoenix lost to Portland. 

This meeting figures to be entertaining for plenty of reasons, but Steph Curry and Devin Booker are just two of eight players in the league who are averaging 32 or more points per night. 

The Warriors pace the NBA in points per game with 125.3 averaged per night. On the other end of the spectrum, only the Kings and Knicks have averaged more fouls per night than Phoenix (24.7). 

The pendulum could swing either way in this matchup, as both teams figure to play some of the best basketball in the Western Conference this season.

Tipoff is at 7:00 p.m. local time.
