Game 3 is where this series tightens up, with the Phoenix Suns back home and urgency starting to drive pace and star usage.
This same-game parlay leans into a modest total for two efficient offenses, plus a spread that gives Phoenix enough cushion.
My Thunder vs. Suns predictions see it all run through Devin Booker, whose scoring consistency makes him the safest anchor on the board.
