Philadelphia 76ers at Phoenix Suns Preview & Picks

Philadelphia are tipped to cover as a double digit underdog.

The 76ers have been solid defensively in recent weeks, and this Phoenix team have routinely failed to cover the spread.

  • Phoenix Suns are 3-10-0 ATS in their last 13 games
  • 4 of Philadelphia 76ers' last 5 defeats have been by 9 points or less
  • The Under has cashed in 11 of Phoenix's last 14 games
  • The Under has hit in 12 of Philadelphia's last 15 games

Head To Head

  • Phoenix Suns lead the all-time series 74-60
  • Philadelphia 76ers won 112-100 when the two teams last met on November 4

Philadelphia 76ers Form

Philadelphia head out on the road looking to build on a couple of much-needed wins at home.

The 76ers started March with back-to-back wins, beating Charlotte 121-114 and Dallas 120-116, but their form soon nose-dived.

A 112-107 defeat in Brooklyn was followed by back-to-back home losses, as they fell 115-109 to Memphis and 103-95 to New Orleans.

Philadelphia avoided a fourth straight loss with a 79-73 win in New York, but they failed to follow that up as they lost the second half of that double-header with the Knicks, 106-79.

The 76ers then lost 114-105 in Milwaukee, but steadied the ship when they returned home to beat Charlotte 109-98 and Miami 98-91.

Phoenix Suns Form

Phoenix return home on the back of a loss that saw their inconsistent run of form in March continue.

The Suns started the month with back-to-back defeats at home, falling to Houston, 118-109, and Oklahoma City, 118-110.

They avoided a third straight loss by winning 117-107 in overtime in Denver, and then backed that up with a 120-113 victory at home to Toronto.

However, since then Phoenix have sandwiched a 117-111 win in Cleveland with a couple of defeats to Boston, losing 117-107 at home and 127-112 on the road.

The Suns then failed to follow up a 107-96 win in Charlotte as they were beaten 140-129 at Milwaukee.

Verdict

Philadelphia have leaned on defense to pick up some wins recently, and that approach could help them cover the spread as an underdog in this one.
