Suns Odds to Win NBA Finals Plummet Following Game 5 Loss to Clippers

The Phoenix Suns were riding high heading into Monday night's game 5 matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. However, they were unable to finish off the series at home and fell by a score of 116-102. The Suns now go on the road for game 6 and have seen their NBA Finals odds plummet as well.

Suns NBA Finals Odds

The Suns were the odds-on favorite to win it all before their game 5 loss and their odds are now set at +145, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. That mark trails the Milwaukee Bucks (-115), but is still substantially ahead of both the Clippers (+1100) and Atlanta Hawks (+2800).

Phoenix just could not stop Paul George from doing whatever he wanted to do on the court last night. The veteran guard racked up 41 points on 15-20 shooting to go along with 13 rebounds and 6 assists. Devin Booker had another big night for the Suns pouring in 31 points, but the team simply couldn't get the job done on the defensive end.

Fortunately, the Suns are still just one win away from clinching a spot in the NBA Finals and will have two more chances at accomplishing that goal. Wednesday night's game 6 is currently a true toss up as each team has a -108 moneyline price.
