Nets vs Wizards Prediction

I understand the Wizards have a CVS receipt of an injury report, and that includes sitting guys for the remainder of the season. The Wizards are focused on a top pick and next season. At home, I guess the Nets should be favored? I’m just not sure what the Nets have done to deserve to be a decent-sized favorite. The Nets are healthier, but they’re in a similar role in terms of tanking for a high draft pick. This will be simply the third time the Nets are favorites, and it’s the eighth time since April that they’re laying 3 or more points. I’m not doing it. Give me the Wizards and the points.
