Thunder vs Suns predictions, picks
Justin Martinez: OKC 116, Phoenix 107
OKC is 2-0 this season against Phoenix, and I expect it to win again on Sunday. Even without Isaiah Hartenstein, the Thunder can protect the rim and hold its own on the glass thanks to Chet Holmgren. And it’s as capable as any defense in the NBA of defending Devin Booker with options such as Lu Dort, Cason Wallace and Alex Caruso. The Thunder should come out on top and extend its winning streak to five games.
