Wizards vs Spurs Prediction
The San Antonio Spurs could obviously win this game comfortably, but they’ve also lost four of their last five games and continue to play games close to the vest. The Spurs just lost to the Hornets and Magic, and they’re still working on a key player in Fox. Things don’t just come together overnight. The Washington Wizards are also quietly playing decent ball with wins in three of their last five games, and they’ve covered four of their last five games. The Wizards have won 33.3 percent of their season games in their last five contests. Also, a look-ahead spot for the Spurs with the Celtics on deck. Give me the Wizards and the free double-digit points.
