The Suns are hosting the Thunder on Sunday night at the Mortgage Matchup Center, with tipoff set for 8:00 p.m. ET. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Phoenix is a 9.5-point home underdog, and the game’s total is set at O/U 232.5 points.
For the Thunder, Jaylin Williams and Isaiah Hartenstein have been ruled out, while both Cason Wallace and Isaiah Joe are questionable with knee injuries. For the Suns, Grayson Allen is questionable with a knee injury.
Below, I’ll go over my favorite player prop bets for Sunday night’s matchup between the Suns and Thunder.
Best Prop Bets for Suns vs. Thunder on DraftKings Sportsbook
Devin Booker 25+ Points (+104)
Booker is averaging 25.7 points per game this season, with that number rising to 26.1 when playing at home. He has cleared 25+ points in 9-of-16 home games this season and will need to consistently chuck up shots to keep up with the fast-paced Thunder. While Oklahoma City leads the league in defensive rating and may pester Booker with the likes of Lu Dort and Alex Caruso, opposing guards tend to still get plenty of looks. Booker has garnered a 35.2% usage rate and shot 48.8% from the field across the last 10 games, and will want to correct his poor shooting night in his first meeting with the Thunder back in November.
Chet Holmgren Over 26.5 Points + Rebounds (-118)
With Hartenstein sidelined, Holmgren has attacked the boards more aggressively, reaching the double-digit mark in four of the past five games. In that same span, he has averaged 18.2 points per game, suggesting that this line set at O/U 26.5 points + rebounds has some value to it at -118. The Suns have allowed the 14th-most rebounds per game to opposing centers this season, and while Mark Williams isn’t necessarily a welcome matchup for Holmgren, I think he can still take advantage in the scoring department. Chet has already cleared this line in both meetings against Phoenix this season.
Collin Gillespie 4+ Three Pointers Made (+131)
Gillespie has averaged 3.0 threes per game this season, but he has hit 4+ threes in five of his past six games. The Thunder defense may be elite, but it ranks 25th in opponent three-point percentage, and I’m expecting Gillespie to take advantage. He has averaged 7.1 three-point shot attempts per game and has seen his usage rate slowly increase, especially with Grayson Allen still sidelined. Oklahoma City is tied for the second-most threes allowed per game to opposing guard, and Phoenix will need perimeter efficiency from Gillespie to help keep up throughout the game.
