Curry Collects Third Straight 30-Point Performance

The Warriors beat the Sacramento Kings in a high-scoring contest on Sunday, taking the win 130-125. Steph Curry led all scorers with 33 points while Jordan Poole (24 points) and Andrew Wiggins (24 points) also had 20-plus. De’Aaron Fox led Sacramento with 26 points while adding 10 dimes for the double-double.

Curry has started the season on fire with three straight 30-point performances. The reigning Finals MVP scored 28 of his 33 points in the first half on Sunday as the Warriors scored 89 through the first two quarters – just three shy of the franchise record for points in a half.

Booker Boosts Suns To Road Win Over Clips

The Suns topped the Los Angeles Clippers in their last game on Sunday, picking up a 112-95 victory on the road. Devin Booker was the star of the show with 35 points while eight others had at least seven points for Phoenix. Paul George, John Wall and Kawhi Leonard combined for just 44 points for the Clips.

Booker would have joined Curry with three straight 30-point games to start the season if not for coming two points shy in his season opener last Wednesday. Regardless, the Suns shooting guard is off to a strong start of his own, averaging 32 points per game so far – within the top eight of the league and just 1.3 back of Curry.

Warriors Player Prop: Curry OVER 31 Points (+125)

Curry has yet to score less than 33 points in a game this season and we aren’t going to start betting against him now. The Warriors guard is getting +125 to hit the OVER on 31 – that should be a pretty safe bet.

Suns Player Prop: Booker OVER 29 Points (+106)

Booker and Curry will be going mano a mano and you know the Suns shooting guard will want to show out against his fellow superstar. Booker has scored at least 33 in two straight contests so 29 is well within reason.

Warriors: Keys To Victory

The Warriors had the fourth-best defense in the NBA last season at 105.8 points against per game, but that number has ballooned all the way up to 120.7 through the early stages of this campaign. Curry and company will give them a chance to win any game, but the Warriors will want to get their defense in order against a talented team like the Suns.

Suns: Keys To Victory

The Suns have plenty of depth but they still rely heavily on Booker to lead the way offensively as we’ve seen through the first three games of the season. Booker will need to have another 30-point performance if Phoenix is going to outscore Golden State on Tuesday.
