San Antonio Spurs Betting Preview
The San Antonio Spurs have been in great shape as they’ve won 12 of their last 16 games overall and they will be aiming for a third straight victory after blowing past the Hawks in a 126-98 road win on Friday. Victor Wembenyama came off the bench once again and led the team with 26 points, 12 rebounds and two blocks on 10 of 15 shooting, Devin Vassell added 18 points, Stephon Castle tallied 17 points with seven assists while Keldon Johnson chipped in with 13 points. As a team, the Spurs shot a healthy 54 percent from the field and 13 of 36 from the 3-point line as they jumped all over the Hawks from the start and were always in complete control after dominating the first half by 68-44.
Washington Wizards Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Washington Wizards have been in a rut as they’ve lost five of their last seven games overall. However, they are coming into this contest with a bit of momentum after taking down the Grizzlies in a 130-122 upset win last night. Kyshawn George led the team with 28 points, seven rebounds and seven assists, CJ McCollum added 28 points with five rebounds and six assists while Alex Sarr tallied 18 points with 11 rebounds on eight of 16 shooting. As a team, the Wizards shot 47 percent from the field and 17 of 44 from the 3-point line as they got off to a poor start and looked to be in deep trouble after falling behind by 20 points. Before they exploded for 77 points in the second half to run down the Grizzlies with time to spare in what was easily their best comeback win of the season.

Wizards vs Spurs Prediction
The Spurs are coming into this contest with a full squad, while the Wizards are still missing Cam Whitmore, Bilal Coulibaly, Corey Kispert and Jamir Watkins. The Spurs have quietly been one of the hottest teams and they certainly looked good in their massive win over the Hawks in their last game. Meanwhile, the Wizards were stumbling their way through another poor season before they were able to surprise the Grizzlies in a dramatic comeback victory last night. The Wizards deserve plenty of credit for their thrilling win over the Grizzlies last night, but it’s going to be tough to replicate that effort on zero days rest. The Spurs are just in a groove at the moment, even with Wembenyama on a minutes restriction, and I think they make light work of the Wizards in this spot.
