James Harden over 28.5 pts (-140)
$700 to win $500
This game should be an absolute scorefest; Suns have trouble guarding the lane without fouling, so I expect Harden to get 10-13 pts off free throws alone tonight. Also, we should see a fast paced matchup with both teams taking several shots from the perimeter, so if Harden shoots well, it would not surprise me for him to have 18-25 by the half. The Rockets have been playing very well offensively and with Harden scoring 30+ each game, I see no reason for them to change things up against a young team that should play them very tough tonight. I like the Suns to win, but I think both teams break 105. If Houston scores 105, you've got to like Harden to have 30
Suns 118-113
Harden ends with 34
