Caesar’s. Royce O’Neale has provided his typical three-and-D presence to the Suns this season. Averaging 16.2 points plus rebounds per game, he’s cleared this line in 18 of 24 games. Devin Booker’s status is up in the air, but regardless of whether he plays, I do like O’Neale tonight. The Thunder’s elite defense takes away the pick and roll and forces the action outside - OKC allows spot up shooting at the fourth highest rate, and that’s O’Neale’s main function in the Suns offense. Any over against the Thunder can be scary, but O’Neale should be needed on the floor tonight.
