Phoenix Suns Form
Phoenix come into this NBA In-Season Tournament game on the back of their eighth win in their last 10 games.
The Suns spluttered through the first few weeks of the season, but turned things around in the second half of November to improve their record to 12-8.
That run included a seven-game win streak that saw them win three straight tournament matchups.
Phoenix beat Utah 131-128 on the road and Portland 120-107 at home, before winning 110-89 in Memphis to complete a 3-1 group stage campaign.
The Suns dropped a couple of games last week, losing 112-105 in Toronto and 119-111 at home to Denver, but they ended the week on a positive note by beating Memphis 116-109 at home.
Los Angeles Lakers Form
Los Angeles enter this tournament matchup in mixed form, having gone 3-3 in their last six games to sit 12-9.
The Lakers enjoyed a couple of three-game win streaks last month and went 4-0 in the group stage of this competition.
However, they struggled to maintain their momentum after a 131-99 blowout of Utah in the in-season tournament.
Los Angeles lost 104-101 to Dallas, and then failed to build on a 121-115 win in Cleveland as they lost 138-94 at Philadelphia.
The Lakers bounced back with a 133-107 victory in Detroit, and then bounced back from a 133-110 loss at Oklahoma City with a 107-97 home win against Houston.
Verdict
Los Angeles have had Phoenix’s number so far, but they have faced a weakened Suns team each time.
The return of Devin Booker is huge for the Suns and it makes them an appealing underdog on the road.
