Wizards vs Mavericks Prediction

I don’t want to back the Wizards as much as the next guy, but getting behind the Mavs in their current form isn’t an option. The Wizards beat the Mavs a couple of weeks ago, and with both teams on the end of a back-to-back, it’s the Wizards that don’t have to travel. We just saw the Mavericks lose at home to the Pelicans as 8.5-point favorites. It would shock nobody to see a loss here as well. I wouldn’t touch this game personally, but if forced to pick, give me the points with the Wizards at home.
