Warriors at Suns Same Game Parlay:

  • Draymond Green 12+ Rebounds + Assists
  • Dillon Brooks Under 17.5 Points
  • Kristaps Porzingis 2+ Three Pointers Made
  • Game Total Under 219.5 Points

SGP Odds: +700

Draymond Green 12+ Rebounds & Assists (-160)

It looks as if Draymond Green found the fountain of youth before Golden State’s first play-in matchup. The former Defensive Player of the Year locked up Kawhi Leonard in what was one of his most impressive lockdown performances of the season, while also adding seven points, nine assists, and six rebounds. Green was in full sync with teammate Stephen Curry; expect the Warriors to go back to the well with a heavy dose of off-ball movement and dribble handoffs to create open looks for the generational sharpshooter. Green leads Golden State in assists per game and will take on a Suns team that has leaned into small-ball down the stretch. Expect the multi-time All-Star to feed off the increased physicality and playoff atmosphere, delivering at least 12 combined rebounds and assists Friday night.

Dillon Brooks Under 17.5 Points (-110)

Dillon Brooks should be the tone-setter for the Suns. It has been a terrific season for the Oregon product, who averaged 20.2 points across 56 regular-season games for the Suns. However, much of his increased offensive production came from Jalen Green’s injury; his role expanded greatly in the guard’s absence. Brooks also missed over a month of action to nurse a broken knuckle. He was held below 17.5 points in five of the six games since his return. Additionally, Brooks’ primary responsibility on Friday night will be chasing Curry across the court. Expect the former All-Defensive team member to take a backseat on offense, once again falling below 17.5 points against the Warriors.

Kristaps Porzingis 2+ Made Three-Pointers (-118)

Jimmy Butler’s injury dealt a gut punch to the Golden State. But the Warriors pivoted and acquired Kristaps Porzingis to keep their playoff hopes alive. Availability has been an issue, but the forward has averaged 16.1 points and 5.2 rebounds across his 15 regular-season games with the franchise. The former All-Star has struggled a bit with efficiency, shooting just 31.1% from beyond the arc, but he’s still averaging 1.5 made threes per game. Porzingis drilled three triples in the opening play-in game against the Clippers and is averaging 1.9 made threes per game in his career. While he hasn’t faced the Suns this season, his combination of size and shooting should cause serious matchup issues. Porzingis was brought in to be a difference-maker in the postseason; expect him to deliver with two or more triples on Friday.

Game Total Under 219.5 (-108)

The Suns turned a page on the star-driven era this past offseason, now leaning on their sound defensive identity. They rank sixth in points allowed, 10th in defensive rating, and second in opponent three-point percentage. The Warriors have certainly slowed down from their high-octane attack of the dynasty years, now sitting 22nd in scoring and 18th in offensive rating — while also showing flashes of defensive brilliance. They held the Suns to fewer than 100 points in two of four regular-season meetings, with the game totals finishing at 198, 235, 197, and 225 across those matchups. Expect points to come at a premium in the heightened win-or-go-home environment.
