π° Best Trail Blazers vs. Suns prop bet
The Suns have the 17th-shortest odds to win the NBA Finals.
Devin Booker Over 26.5 points (-106)
Devin Booker is a proven postseason performer who has had nearly a week off to prepare for this matchup while resting his ailing ankle. How much that injury was truly bothering him isn't reflected in his recent outings, however, as he scored 30-plus in five of his last six games.
Booker has helped the Suns far exceed preseason expectations in 2025-26, and I anticipate a big-time scoring performance from him tonight to punch his team's ticket to the playoffs. The market has his scoring total set at 26.5, and I bet a full unit at FanDuel's -106 odds.
🔥 Backing Booker
Our Shane Thurston is even higher on Booker in his Trail Blazers vs. Suns prediction.

Follow all of our NBA analysis and expert predictions this season.
Donovan Clingan Over 25.5 points + rebounds (-106)
Donovan Clingan soared past this combo total in two of his three head-to-head matchups against the Suns - partly because it's a strong matchup for the NBA leader in total rebounds this season.
Phoenix is a subpar rebounding squad, allowing an average of 14.8 boards per game to opposing centers. Because the best sports betting sites have factored that advantage into the odds on Clingan's rebounding total (-122 at DraftKings), I'm backing this 25.5 combo prop total instead.
Jrue Holiday Under 2.5 3-point field goals (-114)
While Jrue Holiday has been a solid long-range shooter this season, he's only hit one total 3-pointer across two games against the Suns.
And that's no fluke: Phoenix ranks second-best in the Association in opponent 3-point percentage. Holiday has had some higher volume shooting nights from deep of late, but that can't be the Trail Blazers' offensive strategy going up against this defense.
ποΈ Most-bet NBA player props tonight
Here's Corey Scott's analysis of the most-bet NBA player props tonight (h/t BetMGM):
| Player | Team | Bet | Odds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dillon Brooks | Suns | Under 17.5 points | -105 |
| LaMelo Ball | Hornets | Over 7.5 assists | -155 |
| Kel'el Ware | Heat | Under 14.5 points + rebounds + assists | -150 |
| Devin Booker | Suns | Over 26.5 points | -115 |
| Andrew Wiggins | Heat | Under 14.5 points | -110 |
Dillon Brooks Under 17.5 points (-105) is a solid bet, as he has scored 15 or fewer points in six of his last seven games. Even though that bet is now -115 at BetMGM, itβs still the best widely available number, so Iβm not against playing it with the extra juice.
My favorite bet on this list is Booker Over 26.5 points (-115), and I also back him to score 27+ in my NBA player props tonight.

π Trail Blazers vs. Suns same-game parlay
I'm targeting a simple 2-leg parlay: Booker Over 26.5 points and the Suns to win by at least five points. Booker is the engine behind Phoenix's offensive success, so you have to imagine he will put the ball in the hoop often tonight if the home Suns are to win and advance. DraftKings offers +222 odds on this 2-legger, which I laid a half-unit on.
💵 Trail Blazers vs. Suns SGP picks
- Suns -4.5 (-105)
- Devin Booker Over 26.5 points (-106)
Best odds: +222 via DraftKings (0.5u -> 1.4u)
π‘ How I'm betting Trail Blazers vs. Suns
I'm targeting both a strength (3-point defense) and a weakness (rebounding) in the Suns' defense while also backing the matchup's top scorer: Booker.
With this being a more unpredictable one-game postseason matchup between Phoenix and Portland, I'm laying off slightly by betting 2.5 units total, with the Booker scoring Over getting a full 1 unit as my most confident player prop.
