I'm reposting as this did move to -140 at Caesars with the Brunson news (I had it queued up just waiting on that) so maybe you couldn't get the -125. Same play otherwise. Still no RJ Barrett for the Knicks, but Jalen Brunson is back and I think that's enough for a close win here at home with a very unusual weekday start time. The Suns remain without Devin Booker and Cameron Johnson. It's the fifth game of a tough six-game trip for Phoenix and let's just say staying New Year's weekend in New York City might have a bit of effect on some Suns players.

Both of these teams are receiving some reinforcements. The Suns will welcome back Cameron Payne and Landry Shamet from injury, while the Knicks have said that Jalen Brunson will be available. They are still missing some key pieces, though, with Devin Booker (groin) out for the Suns and RJ Barrett (finger) sidelined for the Knicks. The biggest absence will be that of Booker. The Suns are 6-12 on the road this season and are 1-4 on the road in games that he has missed. With Brunson back running the show for the Knicks, expect them to emerge with the victory.
