Heading into Game 5 of the 2021 NBA Finals, we really couldn't have been blessed with a more thrilling series. In Game 4, Devin Booker and Khris Middleton displayed remarkable shot-making ability, leading to 42- and 40-point performances, respectively. In the end, however, it was the officiating that captivated the most attention. Now returning to Phoenix, we’re looking at a best-of-three, and the rotations are solidifying. Jae Crowder has assumed backup center minutes for Deandre Ayton in Dario Saric’s absence, while Cameron Johnson and Pat Connaughton are seeing upwards of 30 minutes per game as of late. The game is set with a point total of 218.0, favoring Phoenix by 4.0 points.
