The Suns' return to the playoffs begins with a tough first-round matchup against a Lakers team that dealt with injuries throughout the season. It took a clutch 3-pointer by LeBron James just to get past Golden State in the play-in tournament. The Suns posted a 27-9 home record during the regular season, including a 17-point win against Los Angeles in their only meeting in Phoenix. The Lakers very well could win this series, but I like the rested Suns to start it off with a victory.
