Phoenix has gone UNDER 18 of its 30 games this season, including the last three, and the Suns are shooting only 45.1 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from 3-point range. New York is even worse with a .439 field goal percentage overall, although it's slightly better from beyond the arc at .348. The Suns actually have won two in a row while improving defensively as Dallas and Minnesota scored 89 and 99 points, respectively. The Suns held the Timberwolves to 40.6 percent and seven of 35 from 3-point distance on Saturday as Devin Booker returned to the lineup and scored 28 points despite still being bothered by a hamstring strain. The Knicks went UNDER in Sunday's 110-99 loss to Indiana and they shot just 41.6 percent. The UNDER is 8-3 the last 11 meetings and 4-1 UNDER the last five at New York. Also, Phoenix has stayed UNDER its last four road contests. Play the UNDER.
