Mikal Bridges dunking PHX vs LAC Dream11

LAC vs PHX Dream11: NBA Playoffs are nearing and we have seen a lot of intense battles and the intensity will only go up from here. And with the way things are going, the Phoenix Suns have set the bar too high and may end up making a deep Playoff run. On the other hand, they will meet the Los Angeles Clippers that look like a difficult team to deal with since the return of Paul George.

There is a chance we can see these two teams battle it out in the first round. If the Clippers lose their first Play-in game versus the Timberwolves and win in the second Play-in game, they can end up meeting the Suns. The Suns have higher priorities than making the Playoffs, they are the top team in the league. What will the First Round battle entail if the Suns and the Clippers clash here? Sure, Paul George won’t go down that easy.

Host: Los Angeles Clippers
Visitors: Phoenix Suns

Match Timing: 7 April, @ 07:30 AM
Venue: Staples Center

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Clippers have their work cut out
The Clippers will need to fend off the Timberwolves in the first Play-in game and that will be an interesting match-up. The Timberwolves have been one of the best offensive teams in the league and the Clippers lack such offensive powerhouses outside of Paul George. However, the team’s tail has been up on the defensive end since he has returned and the Timberwolves’ own defensive problems can mean that they will need to force a shootout. Let us see how the Clippers respond to that series. More about that will be discussed in the preview of the game between the two squads in less than a week.

Suns will be looking at the title
The Suns are too deep and they are made to win in the Playoffs. They have one of the best backcourts in Chris Paul and Devin Booker, with Booker being a major scoring option and Paul being a stellar playmaker. Two-way wing Bridges has expanded his offensive game and will be a huge plus during the Playoffs. Deandre Ayton will be needed and his method of scoring easy buckets inside, playing great defense, and pounding the rebounds will be huge. Cameron Johnson, Jae Crowder, Cameron Payne, and Landry Shamet.
