PHX vs SAS Dream11 Prediction NBA Live Fantasy Basketball Dream11 Team, Top Picks and Tips for Phoenix Suns vs San Antonio Spurs

PHX vs SAS Dream11: NBA has reached its midseason window and now we will first head towards the trade deadline, which is less than two weeks ago. And once that is done, we will move towards the All-Star break, which is less than three weeks away. This is a busy time for various managements as some managers look to pull off trades that can help address the current problems or provide some long-term options in the form of players, draft picks, or easing the luxury tax.

Anyway, in this game, the Phoenix Suns will host the San Antonio Spurs. The Suns have been the best team in the league, and the only squad that has not lost ten games after more than three months of action which signifies that they are in for a championship run. The Suns have been on a nine-game winning streak and well, it will not surprise many people if they can eke out the tenth in a row here.

On the other hand, the Spurs haven’t gotten even close to a nine-game winning streak. In this game, they will play without their three key players in Murray, White, and Poeltl. Well, what a poor time to run into the Suns that are soaring all season long. Can the Spurs put up a fight here against a highly charged Suns?

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Match-ups
The Spurs are severely shorthanded. They are missing Murray, White, and Poeltl here. Murray leads the team in points, assists, and steals, and provides high-quality rebounding as well. White is the second playmaker alongside Murray and can also score at a decent clip. Meanwhile, Center Jakob Poeltl leads the team in rebounds and blocks and has been a huge help in the middle. Now, you can see how hurt Spurs are as they miss their leading scorer, rebounder, playmaker, steals, and blocks leader.  God bless the Spurs here against the Suns!

On the other hand, the Suns will relish the chance of playing virtually a second-string Spurs squad. Chris Paul and Devin Booker have even taken it to another level and remember this team won eighteen in a row before with these two playing at a high level, but right now, these two have gone on to whole another height, how scary! Spurs’ guards Vassell and Walker IV will have their hands full on both ends of the floor and this is a match-up that certainly is tilting towards the Suns’ way as of now.

Meanwhile, with Poeltl gone, the Suns’ deep Center rotation will relish the chance. Ayton is questionable for the game and if he plays, watch out! Even if McGee and Biyombo play here, they can take advantage of the Spurs who will most probably field David Eubanks as the starting Center. In terms of wings, the Spurs can match it up offensively with Keldon and Doug but Suns’ Bridges and Johnson are two-way threats. In terms of the bench, the Suns have a considerable edge considering how three of the Spurs’ bench players will slate in as starters. Really, the Spurs are heavily outmatched in every way possible.
