The Warriors and Suns meet Saturday night in Phoenix for the only nationally televised game.
Phoenix is 10-8 this season but has struggled with a 1-6 record over the past seven games. Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal are back from injury, but the team won 1-1 in the two games with both in the lineup. The trio of Durant, Beal and Devin Booker each scored 20 points in one of those two games, so this team will get better as time goes on.
For Golden State, the Warriors are 12-6 and have lost three in a row to the Spurs, Nets and Thunder. Golden State is 7-3 on the road this season and was led in scoring by Stephen Curry, Jonathan Kuminga, Andrew Wiggins and Buddy Hield.

NBC Sportsbook Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes Steph Curry scoring over 24.5 points against the Suns:
“Steph Curry is on the injury report with a knee listed as questionable, but he took part in a shootaround so we can expect him to suit up.
Curry last played on Monday, while the Warriors played the Thunder on Wednesday and lost 105-101 without him. Curry should be rested with four days off and the O/U rating of 24.5 points is a big discount if he looks healthy.
Curry scored 28 points in 29 minutes against Brooklyn on Monday and has at least 23 points in seven of 11 games in November. With 30, 24, 16 and 27 points in four meetings with the Suns last year, I want Curry to go from 24.5 points to 25.5.”
Here are the best bets our model predicts for the Suns and Warriors:
· Moneyline: NBC Sports finds confidence in taking Phoenix on the ML (-165)
· Spread: NBC Sports has little confidence in Phoenix -3.5 on the spread
· Total: NBC Sports has little confidence heading into a game at the Total UNDER 232.5 points
