Golden State Warriors vs. Phoenix Suns
History: The Golden State Warriors are making their ninth straight Christmas Day appearance and 31st overall, going 13-17. The Suns have not played on Christmas since 2009, defeating the LA Clippers and will be making their 19th appearance with a record of 12-6.
This is the premier matchup of the Christmas Day slate with these teams having the two best records in the NBA. While all of the other games are missing players because of injuries or the league’s health and safety protocols, this one will have the biggest stars all available and playing.
This will be the third time this season that the Warriors and Suns face off this season. They split the first two meetings, with each team winning on their homecourt. The Suns will have Devin Booker this time around, as he got hurt in the first meeting and missed the second.
Both teams are excellent offensively and defensively. They own the first and second-ranked defenses and top-10 offenses. The game is littered with stars with Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Chris Paul being the headliners.
