76ers vs Wizards Prediction

The 76ers are going to be favored for obvious reasons, as they’re at home with the rest advantage and the Wizards remain, well, the Wizards. The 76ers are also 9-1 SU and 7-3 ATS in the last 10 games against the Wizards. However, the Wizards are quietly 6-4 SU and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games, and that includes a big upset win last night over the Magic. The Wizards are playing decent ball and have value in the betting market all of a sudden. Against a 76ers team that continues to have issues with their rotation, I’ll take a shot with the boatload of points.
