Suns vs Thunder Fantasy NBA: The Phoenix Suns will come into the game after beating the Bulls behind a spectacular 45 points outburst by Devin Booker. On the other, the Oklahoma City Thunder will hit the floor after beating the Raptors in a terrific team effort. More details about PHX vs OKC Dream11 will be given here.
Suns’ season: Suns have been the surprise of the season, but if we observe their roster then their record makes sense. They have a machine gun scorer in Booker, a veteran PG in Paul, a defensive juggernaut in DeAndre Ayton and an emerging talent in Mikal Bridges. They also have a deep bench with talents like Cameron Payne, Cameron Johnson, and Dario Saric. Phoenix is 2nd in the NBA Standings for Western Conference.
Thunder’s season: Oklahoma City is in rebuilding mode so it is not a surprise that they have a losing record. However, they have a centerpiece in Shai, who is accompanied by other talented young players in Dort, Svi, and Robey. For Thunder, this season looks to be all about the development of their young core and their youth movement has pieced together fighting performances throughout the season.

CP-3 has transformed Suns into a mature and well-oiled unit. His playmaking, scoring, and defense are even better than the numbers suggest, and his impact can be felt upon the team record this season.
