Premium Pick
1.5 units on Washington +9 (-105) (risk 1.5 to return 2.93)
Result:
LOSS

The Suns are now five games removed from an extraordinary winning streak, and are just 3-2 straight-up since. I think the level of play is still high, but the oddsmakers have not taken them down a peg yet, and it's resulting in some overlays. Add in the fact that Washington has not covered a game since December 1, and the number is out of balance here. Washington has not been a dog of more than +7 all season and as good as Phoenix has been, they have only been a favorite of -9 or more once all season, losing ATS. With the Lakers looming soon, and Golden State on Christmas Day, I can see a flat Phoenix team against a bad line here. Make the play on Washington.
