Phoenix Suns Odds

The Phoenix Suns had a great run in 2021 with a regular-season record of 51-21 and a #2 seed in the NBA playoffs. They also had a great run in the playoffs, defeating the Lakers in round one and then sweeping the Nuggets in round two.

That put the Suns in the Western Conference Finals for the first time since 2010, where they beat the Clippers. The Suns ultimately lost the NBA finals to the Bucks in game 6, falling just short of their championship dreams.

How to read odds & lines for Suns games

The first thing to understand are the main wagers available.

What is the Suns moneyline?

A moneyline bet is a wager on the outright winner of a game. There will always be a favorite and an underdog. The favorite will typically have negative odds, and the underdog will have positive odds.

• Phoenix Suns (-240) vs. Denver Nuggets (+180)

What is the Suns point spread?

A point spread wager is essentially a way to even out the two sides of a game. This happens by subtracting points from the favorite’s score or adding them to the underdog’s score. Odds for both sides will usually be right around -110 because of the point differential.

• Phoenix Suns -4.5 (-110) vs. Dallas Mavericks +4.5 (-110)

For this example, the Suns would have to win by five or more for a point spread bet on them to win.

What is the Suns over/under?

For a wager on the total, you are betting on the total combined score of the game. It doesn’t matter who wins. This is an over/under wager; you choose whether the score will be over or under the line that the sportsbook sets. These wagers typically have odds at around -110 on both sides.

• Phoenix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers: Over 212.5 (-110) / Under 212.5 (-110)

Phoenix Suns live betting odds

Live betting is perhaps one of the most exciting ways to bet on sports. It essentially lets you wager on a game that is already going on. This allows you to watch some of a game before actually placing a wager on it. So at the start of the 2022 NBA season and onward, you can actually wager on the Suns while they are playing.

Keep in mind that the odds can change rapidly depending on what is happening in the game. To find the best Suns betting odds, a sportsbook app will help you keep up with the movement, and you can check odds on multiple sportsbooks.

Suns prop odds & futures odds

The big pregame bets are great ways to get in on the action with Suns games all season long, but there are several other great options to explore. Included on the list are props and futures.

Available prop bets can be found by clicking through on individual game listings. Once you do so, you’ll find additional ways to wager on the game as a whole, as well as on the individual teams and players. Examples of what you’ll see may include:

• How many total points plus assists for Devin Booker – Over/Under 27.5?
• Who will have more rebounds – Deandre Ayton or Julius Randle?
• Will overtime be needed – Yes/No?

For the above props, there are only two possible choices. There will be odds attached to both selections. You’ll also see props with a long list of possibilities, in which case there will be odds for each of the available picks.

Props are also a great spot to shop around and compare prices and options. As a quick example, PointsBet may have the bar set for Booker’s points plus assists at 32.5, while WynnBet sets the mark at 31.5. Meanwhile, Caesars could have the best odds of the bunch for Booker props that day.

By shopping around, you can find the opportunities that make the most sense, as well as the odds that work best for you. The same applies when it comes to futures betting, which involves long-term wagers on season-long outcomes. Top options include:

• NBA Finals, Conference, and Division winners
• Over/Under on team regular season win totals
• Teams to make or miss playoffs
• Award winners – MVP, Rookie of the Year
• Season-long stats – Scoring leader, etc.

Using the NBA Finals odds as an example, odds come out soon after the new champ is crowned. They’ll stay active throughout the offseason and into the new year. You’ll see odds for all of the league’s teams until they’re eliminated or the playoff field gets set. The top of the board might look something like this.

• 2022 NBA Championship Winner
  • Brooklyn Nets +250
  • Los Angeles Lakers +400
  • Milwaukee Bucks +800
  • Phoenix Suns +1200

Returns can be great on futures bets when you make the right call, but remember that they can’t be settled until the outcome is known. The stake for your bet will remain tied up as a result, so just keep that in mind.

Once again, be sure to compare odds and offerings at the top books. You might find more favorable odds on the Suns at Caesars Sportsbook AZ compared to WynnBET Arizona or PointsBet Arizona, for example. If you don’t take the time to explore, you’ll never know what’s out there.

What is the Suns logo and mascot?

The story of the Suns gorilla mascot nicknamed "Go" is one of the oddest stories in NBA history. For the first decade the Suns were in the league, they had no official mascot, although they did try to get a Sun mascot going. This all changed years later, though, when the gorilla mascot happened by accident.

The story goes that a messenger for the Eastern Onion, which was a singing telegram service, showed up at the stadium in a gorilla costume. He then performed some dances during a timeout, and the fans loved it. The man in the gorilla costume that day was Henry Rojas, who would continue to perform at Suns games in the gorilla costume until the end of the 1987-88 season. In 2005, "Go" was inducted into the Mascot Hall of Fame.

Who owns the Phoenix Suns?

When the Suns were born in 1968, a large group of individuals joined forces to create the team. The main original owners were Karl Eller, Don Pitt, Don Diamond, Marvin Meyer and Richard Bloch. They owned the suns until 1987, when they sold the team to Jerry Colangelo. Colangelo owned the team for just under two decades and sold it to Robert Sarver and Larry Fitzgerald (part-owner/Arizona Cardinals player) for $401 million, which at the time was a record. The Suns are still owned by Sarver and Fitzgerald today.

How much are Suns tickets?

You can find and buy Suns tickets on all major ticket sites. The arena has a capacity of over 18,000, but when the Suns are playing well as they are now, you should buy a ticket in advance. Right now, regular-season ticket prices range from $13 for upper-level seats to around $780 for courtside tickets. The average cost for a ticket is roughly $82.

A brief history of the Phoenix Suns

The Suns began play as an NBA expansion team in 1968. As is the case with many new squads, there were growing pains in season one, but the Suns turned it around quickly with a playoff appearance the following year.

It took some time for the team to find its footing, but it finally happened in the 1975-76 campaign. The Suns made it to the NBA Finals for the first time, losing to the Boston Celtics in six games.

That was just the beginning of a run in which Phoenix qualified for the NBA Playoffs much more often than not over the next few decades. The bottom fell out with a big drought in the 2010s, but the 2020-21 edition of the team announced its re-emergence in a big way.

• NBA Finals Appearances: 3 – last in 2021
• Conference Championships: 3 – 1976, 1993, 2021
• Division Titles: 7 – last in 2021
• Playoff Appearances: 30 – last in 2021
• Retired Numbers: Six
  • 5 – Dick Van Arsdale
  • 6 – Walter Davis
  • 7 – Kevin Johnson
  • 33 – Alvan Adams
  • 42 – Connie Hawkins
  • 44 – Paul Westphal

The Phoenix Suns have contributed plenty to NBA history over the past several decades. After last year’s awesome run to the NBA Finals, hopes are high that new great chapters are on the way – along with some rings and hardware for the trophy case.
