AccuScore’s NBA pick of the day – Celtics at Suns image

Just days after the NBA trade deadline, former Sun Isaiah Thomas visits Phoenix for the first time as a member of the Celtics. Both Boston and Phoenix currently sit two games out of the No. 8 spot in their respective conferences.

Line: Suns -7.5, Total: 213 (visit The Linemakers on Sporting News' odds page for current NBA point spreads and totals)

According to 10,000-plus simulations performed by AccuScore, the average score is Suns 107-Celtics 103

There's about a 56 percent chance the total combined score stays UNDER 213. The total has gone UNDER in five of the Suns' last six games at home.

AccuScore Best Bet: There's a 59 percent chance Boston covers a +7.5 spread, a four-star (out of four) AccuScore hot trend.

In the past week, when results from AccuScore’s simulations are 2-4 points different than the Vegas betting line, AccuScore has gone 4-1 (80 percent, +290 units).

Projected Leaders
Isaiah Thomas: 16 points, 5 assists, 3 rebounds, 1 steal, 2 TOs
Eric Bledsoe: 16 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, 1 block, 3 TOs
