This will be the second game between the Golden State Warriors and the Phoenix Suns this season. The Suns were able to come out on top in the first game and will fancy their chances of recreating that tonight, considering they are riding a 4-game win streak. That is not going to be easy, though. The Warriors have the 2nd-best road record in the NBA and won their last game against the Houston Rockets. We will be in for an exciting night of basketball on ESPN.
You can take a look at all of our NBA predictions, but now let’s dive into my Warriors vs Suns Same Game Parlay.
Kevin Durant 35+ points (+165)
Stephen Curry 35+ points (+200)
Same Game Parlay odds: +604
Kevin Durant 35+ points (+165)
The Phoenix Suns are flying and Kevin Durant is a major reason why. The forward has scored 31 or more points in each of the games in the Suns’ current win streak, surpassing the 35-point mark twice. He should be able to continue that tonight with Draymond Green suspended and not there to anchor the Warriors defense. Without him in the last 3 games, the visitors have allowed totals of 130, 128 and 116 points.
With Devin Booker on the court with Durant, he should have more space to operate in one-on-one scenarios, where Durant thrives. Of players who average at least 30 minutes per game, Durant is 8th in usage percentage, so should see no shortage of looks. This looks like a good value line tonight.

Stephen Curry 35+ points (+200)
When these teams met for the season opener, Stephen Curry led all scorers with 27 points. With a short preseason, rust was likely impacting both sides. Now with the season in full swing, he should be able to up his production tonight. Curry is currently averaging 30.4 points. Considering he is 9th in usage and with Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins struggling for form, he should get his chances tonight.
The Suns are 20th in the league in defensive rating and 20th in opponent points per game. Curry should have no issues putting up numbers tonight. Jusuf Nurkic is someone he should be able to target in pick-and-roll situations and should have no problems getting to the paint. Look for this game to turn into a shootout between two of the league’s biggest stars.
