Bryan Bash breaks down Rockets vs Suns with Houston laying 6 on the road. Despite Phoenix’s 8-2 home record, the Rockets’ depth without KD and Sengun’s dominance make them the play. Bash hammers Houston -6 with 2 units of confidence.

The Celtics are laying 4.5 points at home despite sitting at 8-8 while the Magic roll in at 10-7. Boston’s struggling without Tatum, going 4-4 at TD Garden, while Orlando’s proven they can win without Banchero. This line’s a joke—give me the Magic plus the points all day long.
