Denver at Phoenix

Phoenix is more dangerous than ever now that Chris Paul's right shoulder has apparently healed and he scored 21 points with 11 assists in the Suns' 122-105 victory in Game 1. Deandre Ayton finished with 20 points and 10 rebounds and Devin Booker added 21 points for Phoenix, which improved to 47-30-2 ATS on the season. The Suns have won four in a row, including the last three games against the Lakers in the first round and they have shot 52.5 percent their last two games. Denver has covered just twice its last seven games as an underdog and Phoenix is 19-6-1 ATS its past 26 games versus a team with a .600 or better winning percentage. Monday's game went OVER and the Nuggets are 7-1 OVER their last eight games and six of the past seven meetings have soared OVER. Take the Suns as a Max Play, and also take the OVER.
