Phoenix Suns at Oklahoma City Thunder Preview & Picks

Oklahoma City are tipped to cover a big spread as they make it three wins in a row.

The Thunder have had Phoenix's number over the past couple of seasons, and the Suns' task is made even harder by the absence of Kevin Durant for this one.

  • Oklahoma City Thunder are 4-0-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings
  • Oklahoma City are 12-6-0 ATS in their last 18 games as a double digit favorite
  • Phoenix Suns are 1-3-0 ATS in their previous 4 games
  • The Under has cashed in 3 of the last 4 meetings

Head To Head

  • Phoenix Suns lead the all-time series 149-133
  • Oklahoma City Thunder won 99-83 when the two teams last met on November 15

Phoenix Suns Form

Phoenix head Oklahoma City having cooled off over the past several days, losing three of their previous four games.

The Suns enjoyed a three-game win streak in late January that started with a 108-84 victory when they visited Brooklyn.

They then returned home to beat Washington 119-109 and the LA Clippers 111-109, before seeing their run end with a 121-113 loss to Minnesota.

Phoenix rebounded immediately to beat Golden State 130-105 on the road, but they have not won since that success on January 31.

The Suns moved on to Portland for back-to-back meetings with the Trail Blazers, and suffered 127-108 and 121-119 (OT) defeats.

Oklahoma City Thunder Form

Oklahoma City have dropped a few games recently, but they are in solid form with nine wins in their last 12 games.

The Thunder began this sequence with a four-game win streak that was finally ended by a 107-98 defeat in Dallas.

They rebounded quickly, recording back-to-back victories at home as they took down Brooklyn, 127-101, and Utah 123-114, but they failed to keep that run going.

Oklahoma City sandwiched a 118-108 win in Portland with a home defeat to Dallas, 121-115, and a road loss to Golden State, 116-109.

The Thunder ended last week on a positive note though, beating Sacramento 144-110, and they backed that up on Monday as they downed Milwaukee, 125-96.

Verdict

Phoenix arrive in underwhelming form and with Kevin Durant on the sidelines.

That spells trouble against an Oklahoma City team who have repeatedly beaten and covered against the Suns in recent seasons.
