Thunder predictions
After 10,000 simulations of Suns vs.

Thunder, SportsLine's model is going Under on the total (215.5).

The Under has hit in three of the last five Phoenix games.

The Under also hit in four of the five Oklahoma City games in which the line was between 214 to 217 points.

The SportsLine model is projecting the Suns to have just three players scoring in double figures, led by Devin Booker's 23.3 points.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is projected to lead the Thunder with 32.2 points scored, but only three Oklahoma City players will score 10 or more points.

The teams are projected to combine for 214 total points as the Under hits 54% of the time, making it a great selection for anybody targeting NBA parlay betting .
