Suns vs Clippers Fantasy NBA: Phoenix Suns will enter the game after beating the Knicks behind a 33 points outburst by Devin Booker. On the other hand, the Los Angeles Clippers will hit the floor after losing to New Orleans Pelicans and a game where they didn’t have Leonard and George only had 9 points. More information about PHX vs LAC Dream11 will be given here.
Suns’ season: Phoenix Suns have made a dramatic turnaround since past seasons and have become an elite unit. The main ingredients of the successful recipe have been Chris Paul, who has brought high IQ leadership, and Devin Booker, who is having another sensational scoring season. If we add Mikal Bridges, Jae Crowder, and Deandre Ayton in the mix, then we have a squad that can compete on both ends of the floor. They are placed 2nd in the NBA standings for Western Conference.
Clippers’ season: The Clippers are having an outstanding season but their true test will come during the Playoffs. The duo of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George has a lot to overcome and they are expected to at least once in their prime reach the NBA Finals together. Clippers do have the defense and offensive output to compete but it remains to be seen whether they can outlast squads like Lakers or Jazz. They are placed 3rd in the NBA Standings for Western Conference.

Devin Booker PPG: 25.5 APG: 4.5 RPG: 4.1 TPG: 3.2 Projected Fantasy Points: 47 Booker is now a part of an elite team, and it has certainly boosted his confidence. Playing alongside veteran PG and mastermind Chris Paul, and being surrounded with terrific defensive players, means that he can now relish the feeling of being in a winning squad. Fatigue is catching up to Booker, as his scoring has been reduced a little, however, he can catch fire anytime as evident from his last outing where he scored 33 points. He can be chosen as the Super-Player in Dream11 NBA play.
Paul George PPG: 23.7 RPG: 6.5 APG: 5.3 SPG: 1.2 TPG: 3.3 PFP: 42 PG-13 has also weaved together an impressive season, scoring at a terrific rate and while continuing to be a reliable defensive player. His stats are better than the last season and he has given the Clippers a great boost at the SG position. After having a sub-par March scoring-wise, PG-13 is back to his old ways, averaging 27.7 PPG and 1.4 SPG this month.
Chris Paul PPG: 16.1 APG: 8.7 RPG: 4.7 SPG: 1.4 TPG: 2.2 PFP: 40 CP-3’s presence has transformed the Suns into a Playoffs bound and one of the top-performing teams in the league. His playmaking abilities, defense, scoring, and intangible aspects of the game make him an elite player, and one can see the outcome through the results generated by the Suns.
Marcus Morris Sr.: PPG: 13.6 RPG: 4.2 PFP: 30 Marcus has supplemented great offense for the Clippers and they look for him to pick up the overall scoring. The veteran Forward has helped his team in accumulating the offensive output regularly. He is averaging 16.4 PPG and 5.3 RPG so far this month.
Deandre Ayton: PPG: 15.0 RPG: 10.7 BPG: 1.1 TPG: 1.6 PFP: 34 The Suns Center has been a significant contributor on both ends of the floor. He gives stable scoring, rebounding, defense, and plays a crucial part in the team schemes. He is averaging 16.1 PPG this month.
Ivica Zubac: PPG: 9.1 RPG: 7.3 TPG: 1.2 PFP: 25 Zubac has stepped his game up as the Starting Center for his team and he has given the Clippers a lift with Ibaka out of the picture. He is averaging 11.6 PPG for the last 5 games.
Mikal Bridges: PPG: 13.1 RPG: 4.4 PFP: 23 Bridges is a dynamic forward who is only 24 and has given the Suns depth. The youngster is able to play elite defense and this part of him makes him an interesting player for the future while being highly effective in the present too.
Reggie Jackson: PPG: 10.5 APG: 3.2 TPG: 1.1 PFP: 22 Cameron Johnson: PPG: 9.9 RPG: 3.2 PFP: 19
