PHX vs WAS Dream11 Prediction NBA Live, Fantasy Basketball Dream11 Team, Top Picks and Tips for Phoenix Suns vs Washington Wizards

PHX vs WAS Dream11: COVID-19 causes a lot of anxiety and insecurity in the prediction scenario while injuries already cause a lot of trouble. In this game, the Phoenix Suns host the Washington Wizards in a cross-conference battle. Suns have one of the best records in the league and have four times more wins than losses, meanwhile, Wizards have lost six of their last seven games and are totally out of sorts right now.

Suns have won the majority of the games without Devin Booker which indicates their roster depth and team balance. Yes, but without Booker, their offense can get stagnant at times which can create ruptures in terms of gaining a bit of steam. Phoenix is still heading towards a landmark season and remains a favorite for the NBA title.

Wizards are playing their worst basketball right now. The team has no control over the game usually and even struggling opponents have dominated them on both ends of the floor. Washington’s defense has now folded and Wizards are all of a sudden looking like a non-Playoff team. The long NBA season can really overturn fortunes.

Host: Phoenix Suns
Visitors: Washington Wizards
Match Timing: 17 December, @ 07:30 AM
Venue: Foot Print Center

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Suns: Paul, Ayton, two stellar wings, and deep bench
Suns don’t let go of the pressure even if they play their bench players. Phoenix is a deep team that has benefited from Chris Paul’s brilliant leadership that brings cohesion, discipline, and clarity of roles. A team with two wings like Bridges and Crowder, who can be two-way threats, a center like Deandre Ayton, who can go big in terms of scoring, rebounding, and block shots, the Suns can present a challenging number of combinations and can overpower opponents of all sorts. Devin Booker was burying 30 points or more before his injury and when he will come back, the Suns will look even scarier.

Wizards: Lack of intent
Washington has played some of its most awful basketball this month. With Spencer Dinwiddie’s struggles, the position of the Wizards team has taken a significant hit and it has now become a cause of concern. What can this Washington team do better? Their defense was an elite one at the beginning of the season but then they have been short on contesting shots and now opponents are piling up 110+ against them regularly. Wizards have an inefficient offense, a crumbling defense, and perhaps a few trades are needed at this point.
