The Phoenix Suns and San Antonio Spurs meet Monday in the NBA action at the Frost Bank Center. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this game. Here’s a Suns vs Spurs prediction.
Phoenix Suns
The Phoenix Suns have been in pretty good shape as they’ve won seven of their last 10 games overall and they will be gunning for a fourth straight win a fter blowing past the struggling Spurs in a 131-106 road win on Saturday. Devin Booker led the way with 32 points, seven rebounds and nine assists, Kevin Durant added 25 points on 12 of 16 shooting while Bradley Beal chipped in with 13 points and 12 assists. As a team, the Suns shot 59 percent from the field and 11 of 24 from the 3-point line as they stormed out of the gates with 65 points in the first half to jump out to a double digit lead right away, before they poured in another 38 points in the third quarter to push the lead out to 32 points at one stage. The Suns will face the Nuggets after this game.
San Antonio Spurs
Meanwhile, the San Antonio Spurs have been in a real funk as they’ve lost eight of thier last 10 games overall and they will be hoping to put an end to a three-game skid after getting scorched by the Suns on Saturday. Keldon Johnson led the team with 14 points off the bench, Victor Wembenyama added 13 points with five rebounds and four assists while Tre Jones chipped in with 10 points and five assists. As a team, the Spurs shot 47 percent from the field and nine of 33 from the 3-point line as they struggled to keep up right from the start, scoring just 17 points in the first quarter before they got blown off the court in the third quarter to suffer another massive defeat at home. The Spurs will meet the Jazz after this one.

Suns vs Spurs prediction
The Suns are still slightly shorthanded with Damion Lee still out, while the Spurs are keeping an eye on Victor Wembenyama who is currently listed as questionable due to a left ankle sprain. The Suns come into this one as the obvious favorites after blowing past the Spurs with ease on Saturday and I can’t imagine anything but a similar result here against the Spurs who will find it even tougher if Wembenyama isn’t able to suit up for this one.
