Phoenix Suns eliminated the Golden State Warriors, securing a playoff spot with a 111-96 victory led by Jalen Green's 36 points.
The Suns are 47-33-2 against the spread this season, showing their strength when favored. They have a record of 15-9-1 when favored by 3.5 points or more.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had scored 20 or more points in 124 consecutive games, just two off tying the NBA standard set by former Warrior Wilt Chamberlain in 1963. If one takes a quick flip through the NBA record book, they have a high probability of encountering Chamberlain's name, regardless of which page they land upon. So anytime a player is in position to usurp one of the former Warrior's records from the league's early days, it is worthy of note.
