PHX vs MIN Dream11 Match Prediction

 

PHX vs MIN Dream11: Phoenix Suns will be looking for a response when they host Minnesota Timberwolves at Talking Stick Resort Arena, in a matchup between the two teams heading down and South in recent weeks. Both the teams have an identical return from the last 10 games, but Timberwolves’ situation looks more concerning due to their patchy start to the season, The Suns, on the other hand, are still loitering about on the fringes of playoffs, despite winning just three times in the last 10 games, and that is down to the positive return they managed in the early going.

As mentioned, both the teams have an identical return in the last 10 matches, which means, the Timberwolves also have 3 wins in that stretch. But the Wolves are on a four-game losing streak, with the latest coming against the Los Angeles Lakers in the last game, while the Suns have two wins in the last four, so they arrive for this tilt with better momentum.

Dream11 Tips and Predictions: Fantasy Picks-

Devin Booker: Arrive in this game as the clear-cut best player on the Phoenix Suns’ roster. He can be deadly and Wolves’ have a fight on their hands considering he is in very good form of late, and also because he dropped 35 points the last time Wolves faced him.

Rebounds Per Game: 3.9
Assists Per Game: 6.2
Steals Per Game: 0.6

Assists Per Game: 4.5
Steals Per Game: 1.1

Rebounds Per Game: 6.2
Assists Per Game: 3.3
Steals Per Game: 1.2
