The Phoenix Suns return home looking to snap a three-game losing streak when they host the Utah Jazz on Friday night. The Suns need a strong response after a rough road trip that included back-to-back losses to the Portland Trail Blazers and a 31-point blowout against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Devin Booker remains the team’s most consistent offensive threat, and with Kevin Durant’s status questionable due to a left ankle sprain, his role becomes even more vital. The Suns have already dominated Utah this season, winning all three matchups, and they will look to keep that streak alive at home.
Here’s the top Booker prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook for Friday’s matchup against the Jazz.
Best Devin Booker Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
Over 36.5 Points + Assists (-110)
Booker has been a dominant force against the Jazz, averaging 33.0 points and 5.3 assists in three matchups this season. He’s also putting up 26.0 points and 6.6 assists per game across 45 appearances this season, showing his ability to score and create for teammates.
The Suns have been in flux, with trade rumors swirling around Durant and Bradley Beal leading to Thursday’s trade deadline. While no moves were made with either player, the speculation has added to the team’s inconsistency. Despite this, Booker remains the focal point of Phoenix’s offense, especially in matchups where the Suns need him to take over.
“It’s the elephant in the room. It’s been addressed through us all, but same thing for the past couple of months. We have to be professional. Take it day by day,” Booker said, per Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic.
Utah has struggled defensively, allowing 117.4 points per game (23rd in the NBA), making this a prime spot for Booker to thrive. Without a clear defensive stopper to slow him down, Booker has the potential to put up another high-scoring effort while also facilitating the offense.
Given his history of success against the Jazz, his increased playmaking responsibilities, and the Suns’ desperate need for a win, Booker is in an excellent position to surpass 36.5 combined points and assists.
