Top Trail Blazers vs. Suns predictions

After 10,000 simulations of Suns vs. Blazers, SportsLine's model is going Under on the total (217.5) in over-under betting. No team in the Western Conference played to the Under more often than Phoenix this season. The Under went 45-37 for Phoenix, with that 55% clip being the fourth-highest in the NBA. The last matchup between these two went under and in a major way, with just 169 combined points in their Feb. 22 contest, which had an O/U of 222.5.

As for Portland, it has heavily leaned under as of late as six of its last eight games have failed to eclipse the total. Additionally, matchups between these two in Arizona have a tendency to be low-scoring affairs as each of their last four meetings in Phoenix have gone under. Both teams are forecasted to allow at least 5 fewer points than what they gave up in the regular season, as postseason games tend to slow down in terms of pace of play. The model has the Under hitting in 61.1% of simulations. See the Trail Blazers vs. Suns spread pick at SportsLine.
