The Phoenix Suns wrapped up the 2019-20 season with an eight-game winning streak in the NBA bubble and they have looked impressive through their first four games, sporting a 3-1 record with wins over Dallas, Sacramento, and New Orleans.

I think they are about to run into trouble here though against a stingy Utah team that has compiled a 2-1 record with road wins at Portland and OKC. The Suns have the #1 scoring defense in the league heading into New Year's Eve, but that is likely to regress and they rank only #23 for points scored per game.

Note that the Jazz will be playing on two days of rest while Phoenix only has had one day off since its last game.

8* play on Utah Jazz.
