Boston Celtics at Phoenix Suns Picks & Betting Tips


Phoenix are tipped to cover as they make it back-to-back wins.

The Suns quickly bounced back from their streak-ending loss despite the absence of Devin Booker.

  • Phoenix Suns are 11-2 at home this season
  • Phoenix Suns are 5-1-0 ATS in their last 6 games vs Boston
  • Deandre Ayton is averaging 11.1 rebounds per game
  • Boston Celtics have lost 3 of their last 4 games
  • Boston Celtics are 2-8 as a betting underdog on the road

Head To Head


  • Boston Celtics lead the all-time series 77-60
  • The two teams split last season’s series 1-1

Boston Celtics Form


Boston complete a five-game roadtrip in Phoenix and will look to snap a two-game skid.

The Celtics opened with a defeat in Utah but responded by blowing out Portland 145-117 on Saturday.

They dropped back-to-back games in Los Angeles though, losing 117-102 to the Lakes on Tuesday and 114-111 to the Clippers 24 hours later.

Despite the losses Jayson Tatum remains in great form for the Celtics and leads the team in points and rebounds per game.

Tatum is averaging 25.7 points and 8.8 rebounds per outing.

Jaylen Brown’s season has been interrupted by injuries but he is averaging 21.4 points and 5.2 rebounds per game.

Dennis Schroder has been a solid contributor, averaging 17.6 points and 5.0 assists per game.

Phoenix Suns Form


Phoenix issued an immediate response to having their league-best win streak ended last Friday night.

The Suns rode an 18-game tear into the Chase Center that had seen them beat Golden State 104-96 at home.

That run came to an end though, with a 114-103 blowout loss at the hands of the Warriors in the rematch.

Phoenix bounced back on Monday night though, besting San Antonio 108-104 at the Footprint Center.

Devin Booker has missed the last few games with a hamstring injury and his status for this game is unknown at the time of writing.

Booker is averaging a team-leading 23.2 points per game to go along with 4.9 rebounds and 4.5 assists.

Deandre Ayton leads the team in rebounding with 11.1 per game. He is scoring 16.3 points per outing.

Chris Paul continues to pull the strings offensively and averages 14.6 points and a team-leading 10.1 assists per game.

The Suns are top five in points per game (111.4), and they have also been strong defensively, ranking in the top 10 in the league for points allowed per game (105.0).
