The Portland Trail Blazers look to rebound from a blowout loss on Friday when they visit the Phoenix Suns tonight.

Donovan Clingan will need to be a big part of Portland’s success, and I’m expecting the center to have a big night in the box score in my Trail Blazers vs. Suns predictions and NBA picks for Sunday, February 22.

Trail Blazers vs Suns best bet: Donovan Clingan double-double (-140)

The Portland Trail Blazers lost by 54 points to the Nuggets on Friday, but Donovan Clingan had a solid game himself with 15 points and nine boards — one rebound shy of the double-double.

Clingan, who’s averaging over 11 points and 11 rebounds per game this season, will record his 22nd double-double of the season tonight vs. a Phoenix Suns squad that struggles on the glass.

The Suns are 18th in the NBA in rebounds per game and 16th in rebounds allowed per game.

The Trail Blazers center has logged a double-double in four of his last seven contests.
