The analysis Model

A wide-open game: the model barely separates the two teams. The model projects 76ers 114 – 113 Suns, a margin of about 0.7 points in favor of the 76ers and a total around 227 points. Expect a game at a standard NBA pace. The 76ers and the Suns played yesterday: fatigue often shows in the fourth quarter.

  • The Suns need to win the pace battle to stay in the game.
