Coyotes at Stars: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Phoenix Coyotes at Dallas Stars (-144, 5.5)

The Dallas Stars look to complete a successful surge toward the Olympic break when they host the Phoenix Coyotes on Saturday. The Stars have posted a 5-1-2 mark over their last eight games and have enjoyed considerable success versus Pacific Division representatives (12-2-3) to boot. Dallas skated to a 3-1 triumph over Phoenix on Tuesday before dropping a 2-1 overtime decision to San Jose the following night.

The Coyotes moved back ahead of the Stars in the congested Western Conference standings with a 2-0 triumph over Chicago on Friday. Mike Smith turned aside all 30 shots he faced for his 26th career shutout and Antoine Vermette notched an assist to extend his career-best point streak to nine games. Vermette, who netted his team's lone tally versus the Stars on Tuesday, has registered eight goals and four assists during the stretch.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, FSN Plus Arizona (Phoenix), KTZA (Dallas)

ABOUT THE COYOTES (27-20-10): In addition to naming Smith the starter against Dallas, coach Dave Tippett said after Friday's game that Martin Hanzal (illness) is expected to face the Stars while defenseman Derek Morris will miss Saturday's tilt after suffering an upper-body injury against the Blackhawks. Smith had no issue with back-to-back duty and welcomed the challenge prior to the Winter Olympics. "I'm never satisfied," he said. "I played well but just when you think you've got it, it can turn so I'm not going to look too far ahead."

ABOUT THE STARS (26-21-10): Dallas is doing its best to clamp down on defense, holding opponents to just under 23 shots per game in its last 10 contests. Considering the Stars averaged 30-plus per contest each of the last four years, the team seems to be embracing a more conservative way of play. "I think we've got more patience," coach Lindy Ruff told the Dallas Morning News. "I think there were times we went at it too hard instead of taking chances when they come."

TRENDS:

* Under is 11-3-1 in the last 15 meetings.
* Coyotes are 3-13 in their last 16 games following a win.
* Stars are 5-1 in their last six vs. Pacific.
* Home team is 6-1 in the last seven meetings.

OVERTIME:

1. Dallas C Tyler Seguin is riding a seven-game point streak (three goals, eight assists).

2. Phoenix has recorded at least one power-play goal in 13 of its last 16 contests.

3. The Stars yielded only three goals during their three-game road trip (2-0-1).

Warriors at Suns: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Golden State Warriors at Phoenix Suns (-2.5, 209.5)

The Golden State Warriors fought their way out of an offensive hole on Thursday despite being down two starters. The Warriors hope to at least have Andrew Bogut back when they visit the Phoenix Suns on Saturday. The Suns dropped their last two games to slip behind Golden State in the Western Conference standings and were beaten up on the interior in a 122-108 loss at Houston on Wednesday.

The Warriors don’t have the interior presence to take advantage of Phoenix’s weakness in that area with David Lee (shoulder/hip) and Bogut (shoulder) out of the lineup but they do have a pair of shooters in Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson that rivals any set in the league. Those two combined for 56 points in Thursday’s 102-87 triumph over the Chicago Bulls and did most of their damage in the final three quarters after another sluggish start. The Suns were held in check by that same Chicago team earlier in the week and will need to tighten up a perimeter defense that allowed the Rockets to knock down 11-of-16 from beyond the arc on Wednesday.

TV: 9 p.m. ET, CSN Bay Area (Golden State), FSN Arizona (Phoenix)

ABOUT THE WARRIORS (30-20): Curry and Thompson combined to go 7-for-12 from 3-point range on Thursday and are first and second in the league, respectively, in made 3-pointers on the season. “That’s how they made it in this league,” coach Mark Jackson told reporters of the two. “They are incredible shooters. I won’t forget and I will never tell them to stop shooting. It won’t happen.” Curry expects to have one pick-and-roll partner back in Bogut on Saturday but Lee will likely sit out again. Draymond Green got the start in Lee’s place on Thursday and provided a strong defensive presence to go along with nine points and seven rebounds.

ABOUT THE SUNS (29-20): Phoenix failed to defend the perimeter and failed to defend the paint on Thursday, allowing Dwight Howard to go off for 34 points and 14 rebounds. “We didn’t stop anybody,” coach Jeff Hornacek told reporters. “…There was no resistance for them to put up 122, really, with ease.” The back-to-back losses have not slowed Goran Dragic, who reached 20 points in his sixth straight game with 23 against the Rockets and added eight assists and six rebounds. The point guard will represent the Suns in the All-Star skills competition next weekend.

TRENDS:

* Home team is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings.
* Warriors are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games overall.
* Under is 5-1 in Warriors last six overall.
* Suns are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games following a ATS loss.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. The Warriors have taken seven of the last eight meetings but dropped a 106-102 decision at the Suns on Dec. 15.

2. Curry is 16-for-23 from 3-point range in Golden State’s last three wins.

3. Phoenix G Leandro Barbosa has scored in double figures in back-to-back games for the first time since joining the team on Jan. 8.
