The NBA nightcap on NBA TV features a Finals rematch from two season ago and it should be a good one.
Giannis and the top of the East Milwaukee Bucks continue their west coast road trip as they roll into Footprint Center to take on Devin Booker and the Phoenix Suns.
Bringing out the turquoise for ORIGINATIV Celebration Night, hosted by @PlayAtGila!
This is going to be a barn-burner in the desert tonight and I can't wait to watch this game.
Both of these teams just played back to back really good games, the Bucks taking down the Kings in Sacramento and the Suns dropping a close one to the Warriors.
The Suns have been led by astounding play by Devin Booker over the past month, and he doesn't look like he is slowing down.
ππππππππππ ππ ππππ π ππππππππ πππππππ.@DevinBook's averages over this span:
38.0 PPG (60.2 FG%, 53.3 3P%)
6.8 APG
4.8 RPG

He followed that up with a 32 points performance last night in the loss to the Warriors. The Suns are 6-4 over their last 10 but have lost 2 in a row and need to get a win tonight to prevent a 3 game skid.
The Bucks on the other hand are 8-2 in their last 10 games and just picked up a big win against the red hot Kings in Sacramento 133-124.
Giannis was questionable before the game and I bet the Kings wish he didn't end up playing, as he was sensational.
Giannis bagged 46 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists, playing 34 minutes, shooting 67% from the field.
Tonight, if Giannis has a similar performance, the Suns might have a tough time hanging around in this one.
Instead of picking a side, though, give me the over.
The Suns have gone over in 5 straight games and the Bucks have soared over in 2 straight and 3 of their last 5.
Both of these teams are scoring at will right now and on a back to back, the defense might be a bit less ferocious. Give me big nights from Booker, Giannis, Ayton and more to push this game over the total.
You could go with Booker or Giannis here but I love Ayton in this matchup.
DeAndre has been great recently, scoring 20+ in 2 straight games. But this is about how he plays agains the Bucks.
Ayton has 18+ in 4 straight and 6 of his last 7 matchups with the Milwaukee.
I expect a lot of attention from the Bucks on Devin Booker, rightfully so, and Ayton will have a chance to feast once again.
Bonus: DeAndre Ayton 20+ points (+125)
