Suns at Nets picks and predictions
Prediction
Suns 122, Nets 105
Moneyline
PASS.
The Suns (-500) will get a much needed win on Wednesday night to wrap up their 5-game East Coast swing, but I can’t bet 5 units to win 1. I’ll take my bet to the wager.
Against the spread
BET SUNS -10.5 (-110).
The Suns had been playing well before a blowout loss to the Cavaliers on Monday, winning 5 of their last 7 games. The Nets, on the other hand, are in a rough spot, losing 9 of their last 10 and missing several key players. Averaging just 106.6 points per game (PPG), the second-lowest in the league, Brooklyn’s offense has been a struggle. Even without Nurkic and possibly Beal, the Suns should still handle a Nets team with only 2 wins in 2025. Phoenix has also won 5 of their last 7 matchups against Brooklyn.
Over/Under
BET OVER 220.5 (-110).
The Over has hit in 7 of the last 10 games between these teams. The Suns have gone Over in 4 of their last 5 outings, and the Nets have hit it in 4 of their last 7 contests. Phoenix has been putting up big numbers, averaging 122.4 PPG in their last 5 wins. With both teams giving up 114 PPG, expect a high-scoring game here.
