Washington Wizards
The Washington Wizards have been in a major slump as they’ve lost 12 of their last 14 games overall, but they will be feeling much better after putting an end to a six-game losing streak with a 118-104 road win over the Pistons on Saturday. Kyle Kuzma led the team with 30 points, six rebounds and four assists on 13 of 27 shooting, Jordan Poole added 17 points while Daniel Gafford chipped in with 15 points, 13 rebounds and three steals. As a team, the Wizards shot 45 percent from the field and 11 of 34 from the 3-point line as they went back and forth with the Pistons in a tightly contested first half, before they played great defense to hold the Pistons to just 19 points in the fourth quarter and esape with the much-needed victory. The Wizards will meet the Clippers after this one.

Wizards vs Spurs Prediction
The Wizards have been one of the most disappointing teams all season, but they will be breathing a sigh of relief after taking down the ice-cold Pistons to snap a six-game losing streak, while the Spurs have come to life with three wins in their past five outings and just took down the Timberwolves as double-digit underdogs. You couldn’t back either team with any confidence these days, but the Spurs have been the team in better form recently and I think they can keep it going with another win at home.
