The Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Clippers square off in the NBA’s Halloween nightcap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pregame narrative:<\/strong> Phoenix is rolling and gets Los Angeles on a back-to-back. I expect the Suns to win and am backing Devin Booker and James Harden to clear alternate point and 3-point totals, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out my Suns vs. Clippers same-game parlay predictions for Oct. 31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suns vs. Clippers predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Parlay: Suns moneyline + Booker over 22.5 points + Harden over 2.5 threes (+285) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suns moneyline (-205):<\/strong> The Suns’ Big Three is healthy and they’re looking good so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98839<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phoenix is 3-1, with wins over the Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks. Kevin Durant and Devin Booker are efficiently filling the basket, but Mike Budenholzer’s calling card early on has been a stingy defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The squad ranks sixth in defensive rating and is holding opponents to the ninth-lowest field-goal percentage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without Kawhi Leonard in the mix, I struggle to see an aging Clippers roster buck that trend on the second night of a back-to-back. L.A. was 6-9 straight up on no rest last season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Booker over 22.5 points (-175):<\/strong> Booker scored only 15 points against Los Angeles in the season opener, but he shot 5-of-9 from the field and 4-of-5 from deep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98848<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, he’s averaging 18.6 field goal attempts per game and has cleared this line in two of three contests. He just dropped 33 points on the Lakers and played a team-high 39 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I won’t let his opening night production discourage me because this should be a nice matchup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Clippers allowed the eighth-most points per game to opposing SGs last season, according to Fantasy Pros. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Booker averaged 27.1 PPG last season and cleared this line in 46 of 68 starts (67.6%). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harden over 2.5 threes (-155):<\/strong> With the way stars tend to rest in the modern NBA, there is a chance Harden sits out tonight. But at home, against a divisional rival, I’m hoping L.A.’s main man plays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98840<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Beard ranks third among all starters in usage rate (33.9%) and is heaving up 9.3 threes a night. He’s only cleared this line once but went 5-of-11 from deep yesterday and 2-of-12 the game before that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If he keeps firing at this rate, I love his chances of clearing this total. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phoenix is a fine defensive team, but it ranked a middling 16th in opponent 3-point percentage last year. And this year, it ranks 22nd through four games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
