Thunder Gameday: Chris Paul and the Suns Visit Oklahoma City

The best team in the NBA will be in Oklahoma City on Sunday evening to take on the Thunder. The only team in the league with 60 wins, the Phoenix Suns will look to continue their impressive run during the regular season.

Although both teams will be without key players, the Suns shouldn't have a problem finishing the week with yet another victory.

ODDS:

The Thunder enter the day as 16-point underdogs to the Suns, and the total over/under is 222.5 points.

KEYS TO THE GAME:

Phoenix will be resting Devin Booker, Jae Crowder and Deandre Ayton against the Thunder on Sunday night. However, Chris Paul is expected to be in action as he continues to ramp up activity following an injury.

The Suns are the best team in the NBA this season, already locking down the best record in the NBA. On both ends of the floor, Phoenix has been stellar.

They've also had no problem winning on the road, boasting a 31-7 record away from Phoenix.

Oklahoma City will also be extremely shorthanded today, to the point where the rotation may not extend deeper than eight players. It will be up to a handful of role players that are still healthy to keep this game competitive.
