Betting on the Washington Wizards
- Regular Season Record: 26-29
Due to their main players’ physical problems, the Wizards have dealt with constant ups and downs this season. However, they arrive at this game within the playoff places, but with little difference between them and their rivals. In this way, they are aware that they do not have much margin for error.
Still, the team led by Wes Unseld Jr. will not have an easy start to the week. They will have played the Golden State Warriors the night before and will be playing the second of a three-game away trip, in which they have not fared well this year.
The Wizards’ record on the road this campaign is 12 wins and 17 losses, allowing an average of 113.1 points scored and 113.3 points allowed per game.
Betting on the Portland Trail Blazers
- Regular Season Record: 27-29
The Trail Blazers and Wizards share a similar situation: both teams have shown potential, but lack consistency to move up in the standings.
Portland’s situation is not the best, given that they have won just one of their last five gamesand has struggled with defense, relying heavily on Damian Lillard’s offensive performances without enough support.
Their numbers are not great either; however, the team’s offense tends to perform better at home, averaging 119.9 points and shooting 48.9% from the field.
JefeBet Prediction
The Wizards’ offense has been inconsistent this season, but they have improved recently and should be able to take advantage of the Blazers’ unreliable defense, especially considering the Blazers were outscored by 116 points in their last game.
However, it’s important to note that the Blazers have strong offensive players, including Lillard, who is currently playing exceptionally well, and they tend to perform better at home.
In the last five meetings between these teams, four games covered the Over, and with both teams relying on their offense, we expect a high-scoring game.
Prediction: Over.
