Randy’s Free Pick
The Indiana Pacers continue to play below average ball, and that includes losing their last 5 games by an average of 6.8 points. The Washington Wizards continue to hang around in the standings, and they’re shooting the ball well this week. The line is reasonable, and the Pacers are in terrible form. Give me the Wizards.
