PHX VS POR Dream11
PHX vs POR Dream11: Phoenix Suns will hope to snap their two-game losing run when they host Portland Trail Blazers in the NBA 2019-20 regular-season at Talking Stick Resort Arena, on Tuesday morning.
That said, the Blazers will also be looking to get back to winning way after dropping the last game 114-99 against Denver Nuggets, which was their 5th defeat in the last 10 and 16th in the season. The Blazers are 10-16 on the season, and 5-10 on the road coming into this game. Surely, the last season’s beaten conference finalists can do better and are a better team than the current position they find themselves in. Here is everything you need to know about this match.

Damian Lillard and Hassan Whiteside both the capable of dropping big numbers in the game, but the latter is more consistent and a sort of all-rounder who contributes on both ends of the court. But CJ McCollum can also pop up with significant numbers, but he should not be your captain in the small leagues.
From the Suns, Devon Booker is the no-nonsense choice if he plays.
