Phoenix Suns vs Houston Rockets Prediction & Picks (Amen Thompson Key Factor): Full Breakdown & Bets

Amen Thompson (Houston Rockets) Under 7.5 Rebounds (+116)

As the Houston Rockets head into Phoenix, all eyes will be on Amen Thompson. However, betting on him to go over 7.5 rebounds might be a stretch. Over his last five outings, he's averaged just 6.2 boards, and when you consider his recent performances against the Suns, that number dips to 5.3 on the road. Thompson's rebounding tends to fluctuate, and against a well-structured Phoenix team that tends to limit second chances, he may find himself boxed out more than usual. With an overall hit rate of just 50% on this prop in his last four games and only hitting four of his last seven away games, the under feels like a smart play. The implied probability of 46.3% suggests we might be onto something here. Betting the under on Thompson's rebounds could be a savvy move as the Rockets try to navigate a tough matchup.
