Phoenix Suns Betting

The Phoenix Suns continue to sit head above everyone in the NBA standings with their record at 52-13. There is no other team that reached 50 games this season and they are eight games above the second-placed team, Memphis Grizzlies. Chris Paul is still sidelined and will not be joining the roster until the final games of the season. For now, DevinBooker has been leading the team along with DeAndre Ayton who mans the paint. The team will be playing without Booker and Landry Shamet replaced him in the starting lineup during their last game. Cameron Johnson has been filling up for Chris Paul and has been doing a good job so far.
