PHX vs NOP Dream11 prediction: Match preview

The Phoenix Suns will be coming into this game having suffered just one close loss to the Sacramento Kings in their second game. Backed up by future Hall of Famer Chris Paul, Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton, the Suns won their first game against the Mavs by 106-102. Their last game, also against the Kings, saw them avenge their Game 2 defeat with a 116-100 scoreline. They are now in fifth place on the Western Conference points table and join seven other teams who have a 2-1 win-loss record at the tournament so far.

On the New Orleans Pelicans side, there is Zion Williamson, the 2019 NBA Draft’s No.1 overall pick, as well as Brandon Ingram,  the Western Conference Player of the Week. After missing out on much of the last season due to injury, Ingram will be hoping to bounce back in full force this season. After winning their first game against the Toronto Raptors, the Pelicans lost their second game to Miami Heat, before coming back strong in their last game against the San Antonio Spurs. Ingram scored 28 points to lead his side to a close 98-95 win over the Spurs, putting them in top place on the table.
