Suns vs Warriors Prediction, Projected Score & Pick
Phoenix Suns at Golden State Warriors · Mon, Nov 2, 2026
HoopVantage's Nov 2, 2026 prediction: Phoenix Suns over the Warriors by 2.2 points, a 57% win probability, with a projected final of Suns 115, Warriors 113 (total 228.2).
The model projects Phoenix Suns to win by 2.2 points (57% win probability), projected score GSW 113, PHX 115, total 228.2 (80% range 205–252). The largest driver is rest, travel & altitude (1.8 points toward PHX).
Matchup
Phoenix Suns rank 18 of 30 in the HoopVantage power rating (−1.5 points against an average opponent, about 38 projected wins in 2026-27); Golden State Warriors rank 22 (−2.7, about 33 wins). On a neutral floor that gap is worth 1.2 points to Phoenix Suns; home court, rest, travel and the projected rotations move it to the 2.2-point margin above. A 57% win probability means Phoenix Suns should win about 6 of 10 games like this one, so the other side winning is a normal outcome, not an upset of the model.
