The Lakers and Suns meet for the nightcap of a doubleheader on TNT.

Phoenix is ​​9-7 and has lost five games in a row, but there is good news. Bradley Beal and Kevin Durant return to the Suns to make Phoenix the home favorite in this matchup. The Suns are 8-1 against Kevin Durant this season while the Lakers are 9-0 in Cup games from last year, so this return is good timing.

Los Angeles is 10-6 and is on a two-game losing streak coming into this matchup. These two met on October 25th and 28th, with both teams sharing a competition. Anthony Davis had 29 and 35 points in those two games, so even though the Suns get their stars back, they also need to stop the Lakers stars.

With that said, let’s dive into the matchup and offer some information and maybe a sweat or two.

NBC Sports Bet Best Bet

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) thinks Bradley Beal is playing under 22.5 PRA against the Lakers:

“Bradley Beal returns to the lineup to face the Lakers for the third time this season.

While it’s a familiar foe for him in a hard-fought game that will help stop a five-game losing streak, Beal is also a familiar foe for the Lakers to slow down. Beal is recovering from a calf injury and previously averaged 17.8 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.7 assists (25.5 PRA) this season.

To some this number of 22.5 may seem low, but to me it seems quite high. With Tyus Jones and Devin Booker holding the ball and Kevin Durant back, I don’t expect a high usage rate for Beal. I like his PRA under 22.5 and the points under 15.5 as an alternative.”

Here are the best bets our model predicts for the Lakers and Suns:

· Money line: NBC Sports confident of adding Pheonix to ML (-135)

· Spread: NBC Sports has a lot of confidence in Phoenix -2.5 in the spread

· In total: NBC Sports has little confidence in a game with a total of OVER 234.5 points
