Teams Preview

Golden State Warriors

All, it seems, is not well in the Bay Area with the Warriors. Golden State has been up and down to start the 2025-26 season. After coming up with their biggest win of the season on Tuesday night against the Clippers, the Warriors have dropped two in a row on the road.

The latest setback came on Saturday night against a rusty Indiana Pacers team, looking for their first win of the season. Golden State got off to a quick start, opening up a 7 point lead in the first quarter, only for Indiana to make a run of their own, to keep themselves within touching distance. The two quarters that followed, witnessed a see-saw battle with no team giving an inch.

The Warriors were rattled and never regained their composure. When the Pacers finally took the lead with just a minute left on the clock, it was as if the Basketball Gods were on their side. Indiana never looked back, handing Golden State its third loss of the season. The Warriors fall to 4-3 for the season, now 2nd in the Pacific Division.

The Warriors are averaging 117.6 PPG in the 2025-26 season, shooting the basketball at 46.8%. They also average 41.9 RPG while tallying 27.7 APG (8th in the NBA). On defense, Golden State is ranked among the top ten in steals averaging 9.1 SPG with 4.0 BPG. The Warriors handed the Suns their worst defeat of last season, when they blazed past Phoenix 133-95 on Apr 8, 2025.

Golden State Warriors Spread Predictions

Phoenix Suns

On the back of four consecutive losses early on in the season, the Suns found themselves in a tough spot. However, they have managed to find their feet once again, with two big wins against the Jazz and Spurs. As the Spurs rolled into Mortgage Matchup Center, having their best start in franchise history, they must have been confident of pulling off a win.

Phoenix, on the other hand, had its own agenda on the night, which was to win back-to-back games for the first time this season. When it was all said and done, the Suns had achieved their goal, upsetting the Spurs 130-118. Phoenix improves to 3-4 for the season, placed 4th in the Pacific Division.

Devin Booker starred for the Suns with 28 points, throwing 13 assists. Grayson Allen and Ryan Dunn each added 17 points. Phoenix got a boost from its bench, accounting for 50 points on the night. The Suns average 118.3 PPG this season, making 46.5% of their shots. 

They are averaging 42.4 RPG, handing out 28.0 APG (8th in the NBA). Defensively, Phoenix is averaging 9.7 SPG and 5.3 BPG. In the 2024-25 season, the Suns won 2 out of 4 meetings against the Warriors, averaging 121.5 points per game in their wins while giving up only 105 points a contest.

Golden State Warriors vs Phoenix Suns Match Prediction & Analysis

Steve Kerr must be furious with his players, for the way they crumbled against the Pacers down the stretch. Even for someone who has seen it all as a player and coach in the NBA, this loss has to be painful. Time catches up with everyone and Stephen Curry is no exception to this. 

The Greatest Shooter in NBA history, searching for his fifth chip, knows he doesn’t have much longer on the hardwood, and would be the first to acknowledge the importance of closing out games. The Warriors cannot afford to blow leads in the fourth quarter if they are serious about winning a championship this season.

The Sun is shining brightly in the Valley for the moment. If Phoenix wants to continue the winning habit in a loaded Western Conference, it needs to be more consistent.  The game is scheduled for Nov 5th at 8:30 AM IST.
