New York Knicks at Phoenix Suns Preview & Picks

The Over is tipped to cash in tonight's game.

Not only has that been a trend in recent games for these two teams, it has also been a trend in recent meetings between the two.

  • The Over has cashed in 12 of Phoenix's last 18 games
  • The Over has hit in each of New York's last 6 games
  • The Over has cashed in 5 of the last 7 meetings between the teams
  • Phoenix Suns are 5-1-0 ATS in their last 6 wins

Head To Head

  • Phoenix Suns lead the all-time series 72-65
  • Phoenix Suns won 116-113 when the two teams last met on November 26

New York Knicks Form

New York head to Phoenix on the back of their defeat in four games which has left them with a 13-9 record.

The Knicks ended November with back-to-back home wins, beating Charlotte 115-91 and Detroit 118-112.

They then made it three-in-a-row with a 119-106 victory in Toronto, but since that night they have won just once.

New York were beaten 146-122 in Milwaukee, before heading to Boston for a 133-123 defeat at the hands of the Celtics.

The Knicks avoided a third straight loss by beating Toronto 136-130, but they failed to follow that up on Wednesday as they were beaten 117-113 in Utah.

Phoenix Suns Form

Phoenix enter this matchup in bad form, having now lost five of their last seven games to fall to 13-10.

The Suns enjoyed a seven-game win streak in late November that kick-started their season, but the wheels have fallen off since then.

They lost 112-105 in Toronto and 119-111 at home to Denver, and then failed to build on a 116-109 victory over Memphis.

Phoenix were beaten 106-103 at the Los Angeles Lakers and 114-106 at home to Sacramento, but they again avoided a third straight defeat as they beat Golden State 119-116.

However, the Suns were once again unable to back up a win, losing 116-112 to Brooklyn on Wednesday night.

Verdict

These two teams tend to hit the Over when they go head-to-head, and their recent outings suggest that trend is likely to continue here.
