Premium Pick

The injury-filled NBA playoffs have made it to the Finals with both teams reasonably healthy as Giannis Antetokounmpo should be ready to start Game 1. Phoenix has emerged as the favorite as it has home-court advantage and plenty of depth, and the Suns prevailed even with Chris Paul missing a few games as Cameron Payne stepped in and helped fill the void. Deandre Ayton has been a force on the boards as well as a scoring threat along with being an effective defensive player. Phoenix has covered six of the past seven meetings, including both this season when they were underdogs in two games that went down to the wire. Milwaukee is 13-27-1 ATS its past 41 playoff games as an underdog, and the Suns are 10-3 ATS their last 13 games. The Bucks are 9-4 UNDER their last 13 as underdogs, and Phoenix is 8-3 UNDER playing with at least three days rest. Take the Suns and the UNDER in Game 1.
