Prediction
The Suns have managed to win 8 of their last 10 games without Booker who's ready to return for this game although he might be in minutes restriction, however this is great news for the team. The Nets have won 3 of their last 4 games but they lost their first game without Kyrie Irving and are still without Durant so it's hard to trust them even at home. Take the Suns.
