Premium Pick

A tough spot for the bad home team with Kobe Bryant not 100%. Bryant has been dealing with soreness in his knees, feet, back, and Achilles’ tendons. Los Angeles is 2-6-2 ATS against the Pacific Division, as well as 10-4 UNDER the total after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. They face a red-hot Phoenix team that has been rolling, and Friday’s victory over the Sacramento Kings marked its fifth straight. They held the Kings to 16 fourth quarter points, turning up the defense on the road. The Suns are on a 5-0 ATS run, plus they are on a 4-0 run UNDER the total in Sunday games. Phoenix has won six of the last seven meetings with Los Angeles, and the Suns are 6-2-1 ATS in the last nine meetings. Play the Phoenix Suns and the UNDER.
