Atlanta Hawks vs Phoenix Suns Prediction - 11/16/2025
Updated July 9, 2026
The Atlanta Hawks and Phoenix Suns will meet in an inter-conference NBA game on Sunday night. These teams are both 8-5 going into this matchup and they will both try to extend their respective winning streaks here. Before tip-off in The Valley, you can continue scrolling to get my analysis for this game, including my Hawks vs Suns prediction.
Injuries are a factor for both teams heading into this game. Trae Young is out for this game for the Hawks. Phoenix is heading into this game without the services of Grayson Allen and Jalen Green. But those injuries have not stopped either of these teams from winning games recently. Atlanta has won four games in a row, while the Suns come into this game on a five-game winning streak.
The Hawks are the road team going into this game, but that has not stopped Atlanta from winning games either. Atlanta has won six of its first eight games away from home this season. This might be the toughest road test that they've faced so far this season, though, and it will be interesting to see how the Hawks handle that without Young on the floor.
Both of these teams have been surprisingly good on defense so far this year. They are both in the top half of the league in defensive rating and this game could come down to which team does the best job of stacking up stops.
Player | Prop |
|---|---|
Devin Booker | Over 28.5 points |
Nickeil Alexander‑Walker | Over 16.5 points |
Dyson Daniels | Over 5.5 assists |
This is going to be a very close game. I think that the injuries on both sides will cancel each other out. But the home-court advantage for the Suns should help them to get a win here. I'll take the Suns to win on the moneyline as home underdogs in what should be a very entertaining matchup from The Valley on Sunday night.
