This Wednesday night matchup is between two huge Western Conference rivals that are contending for a championship. The Phoenix Suns prepare to take on the Dallas Mavericks in Dallas. Both of these teams have elite level talent on their rosters built for a championship and consistently go at each other’s necks every single time they match up.

The Phoenix Suns are entering this game as the 5th seed in the Western Conference with a record of 25 wins and 18 losses. The Suns struggled early on with their Big 3 consistently being injured. Phoenix finally has Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal healthy which has led to the team winning 7 of their last 10 games. Phoenix is currently on a 6 game win streak as they head into this road trip. The Suns are 11-7 when playing on the road this season.

Phoenix Suns vs. Dallas Mavericks: Game Prediction

These two NBA teams are a fan favorite in terms of rivalries for NBA fans across the world. These two teams are always in close matches and have even met in the playoffs. Usually there are multiple confrontations between the leaders Devin Booker and Luka Doncic. In this rivalry Luka Doncic constantly out performs Devin Booker, but Booker always comes out with the win. Against each other all time, Devin Booker has won 9 of the 12 regular season matchups in their careers. Booker in these matchups against Luka and the Mavericks averages 25 points, 5.7 assists and 4.6 rebounds. However, Luka Doncic averages 31.4 points, 6.9 assists and 8.2 rebounds and beat the Suns in a 7 game playoff series. 

The Phoenix Suns are only one game ahead of the Dallas Mavericks entering this matchup. However, when healthy, the Suns are simply the better team. The Suns are currently on fire winning 6 games in a row meanwhile the Mavericks have lost two games in a row. Kevin Durant leads the Suns with 29.6 points per game and having Devin Booker as a 2nd option is just too much to handle for the Mavericks. 

I believe that this is the point in the season where the Suns catch a groove and start winning games until they reach a top seed in the West. They have one of the best rosters in the entire National Basketball Association with too much talent to keep losing. A healthy trio of Durant, Booker and Beal with solid role players like Grayson Allen should be one that is feared. In this Wednesday night matchup I have the Dallas Mavericks covering the spread, but losing the game to the Phoenix Suns in this Suns v Mavericks game.
