All-Star guard Trae Young, who Washington made a big impact by acquiring, will not participate in this game because he is recovering from knee and quad ailments. The Wizards are facing one of the league’s top home defences on the road, which puts them in a difficult situation. This season, Booker and the Suns are among the league’s top home teams, particularly when they are favoured. With an average scoring margin of +15.3 in those games, Phoenix is 13-5 straight up at home and has gone 8-2 against the spread as a home favourite.
