These two have met once already this season, the Suns taking a 14-point victory on the road as +2.5 underdogs. At this point, Phoenix is desperately fighting to get over that Play-In line while New Orleans is trying to maintain their position above it. The big issue for the hosts is that Ingram is still out. He is their second leading scorer (20.9 points per game) and top distributor (5.8 assists per game), so his absence is massive.
Phoenix can close out a five-game road stretch with a win here on Monday night vs a team they have faired well against.
Back the Suns in a pick'em spot here.
