The San Antonio Spurs (38-16) host the Phoenix Suns (32-23) tonight at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, marking the third matchup of the season between these Western Conference rivals. The Spurs take the court riding high with a six-game winning streak. Victor Wembanyama and co. currently sit second in the Western Conference. Conversely, Phoenix, sitting in seventh, is looking to bounce back following losses in three of their last four heading into the All-Star break.
San Antonio enters this matchup as a heavy favorite despite Phoenix having won the first two matchups against the Spurs this season. San Antonio was playing better heading into the Break, and they have excelled on their home court this season (19-6). The Spurs boast a balanced attack, with Wembanyama (24.4PPG) and De’Aaron Fox (19.4PPG). Defensively, the Spurs have been elite of late allowing only 110.1 points over their last 10 games.
For the Suns, the challenge is maintaining their offensive rhythm without Dillon Brooks (suspension for too many technical fouls). Devin Booker, however, continues to be stellar, averaging 25.2 points and 6.3 assists. Phoenix will need a massive performance from their leader to overcome San Antonio’s suffocating defense. Other than Brooks, the Suns will dress a full lineup tonight. They are healthy following the break, with Grayson Allen and Isaiah Livers returning, which provides necessary depth to handle a Spurs team that has, statistically, been the superior squad leading up to this game.
Lets take a closer look at the matchup and take into consideration lineups, injuries, and other factors affecting the line and total.
