Portland has won and covered both games against the Suns, but this should be a different Suns squad tonight as they begin a two-game road trip. Phoenix can tie a season-high four-game win streak tonight. There was a two-week period in December where the Suns were covering every game. They packed it in for two months and now they're healthy and appear like they want to play some ball. The Blazers have lost their last two. I'm on the Suns.

Since losing 17 games in a row, Phoenix has won three straight and four of five. That includes victories over the Bucks and Lakers. But all those wins were at home. Now the Suns hit the road to face a Blazers team that beat them by 14 and 22 points earlier. Phoenix is a NBA-worst 5-28 on the road and the Blazers cover in nearly two-thirds of my simulations. That's a high number, so I'll lay the double-digit points here.
