The Washington Wizards have managed to react in their last few games and much of that is due to Kyle Kuzma’s great performance: he scored 30 or more points in two consecutive games, and in January he accumulated averages of 24 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 4.9 assists. Let’s remember that the former Los Angeles Lakers’ player will be a free agent at the end of the season and will surely have many offers on the market.

Surely, the Wizards contemplated trading Kuzma before the trade deadline to avoid the risk of losing him in free agency without getting anything in return, but the capital club’s current hot streak could change plans.

Betting on the New Orleans Pelicans

The New Orleans Pelicans finally have Brandon Ingram back, who missed two months with a foot injury. The forward scored 13 points on Wednesday against the Timberwolves but his lack of pace was evident as he hit just 4 of the 18 shots from the field.

With Ingram bettering his performance, heading into this game with the Wizards, the New Orleans team will be hoping to break their losing streak as several teams are closing in on them in the Western Conference standings.

JefeBet Prediction

The Pelicans were one of the most consistent teams for a large stretch of the current season, but things have changed dramatically for them. The absences of Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram made things very difficult for the coach, Willie Green.

Considering the Pelicans’ bad moment and that the Wizards have started to turn their situation around, at JefeBet we consider that Bradley Beal and company will manage to cover the spread in this game.

Prediction: Washington Wizards Spread.
