Betting on Washington Wizards
Losing is no longer an option for the Wizards. They have lost three straight games, which puts them in a very difficult spot. In addition, out of the last 10 games, they have only won 3, indicating that their poor performance has been ongoing for some time. Not good stats for a team that is gradually losing faith.
The last game they won was against Minnesota Timberwolves by 142-127. Kristaps Porzingis performed admirably in the game, scoring 41 points and grabbing 19 rebounds. However, he faltered in the subsequent games, and the team suffered as a result, with three losses in a row and not being able to rely on him to perform at his peak.
The Wizards are not having the best of times, as they have to visit the Bulls and have only won three games on the road. The last time they won away from home was on November 8 against Charlotte by 108-100, which means they have 6 consecutive defeats on the road.
Betting on the Chicago Bulls
Interestingly, the Bulls also have three consecutive losses and only three wins in their last 10 games, hence the intensity of this game: both are going through very similar moments, although Chicago is playing at home. Will Michael Jordan be busy? Because they need to win at the United Center.
Chicago is 5-5 at home, but their recent home losses have hurt them quite a bit: they have only two wins out of the last five games played in Chicago. The Bulls have just returned from a 6-game road trip in which they went 2-4, so being at home should help them recharge, and what better opponent than a weak visitor.
DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine have been put to serious work in recent games. Against Sacramento, a game they lost 110-101, LaVine scored 41 points and pulled down 8 boards in addition to DeRozan carrying a streak of 6 games in a row scoring at least 25 units. If they play well, playing at home may be easier.
JefeBet Prediction
Chicago has more arguments to defeat the Wizards, who will continue their negative streak and lose positions. The Bulls will take advantage of their good streak and to prevent the Knicks and Washington itself from slipping further away.
The Wizards will continue to be in the doldrums, and that’s already a big concern. It doesn’t help that they have a lot of injuries at the moment, because with what they have available right now, it’s not enough to get at least a couple of wins to lift their spirits.
