On the season the Wizards are 28-41-1 ATS and they have an O/U record of 31-37-2 and the Warriors are 40-28-1 ATS and they have an O/U record of 33-36.

[dfads params=’groups=63742&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

This season the Warriors are 33-2 at home and the Wizards are 15-20 on the road.

In their last games the Warriors beat the Utah Jazz 106-01 and the Wizards lost to he Sacramento Kings 109-86.

The Warriors are riding a 5-game winning streak, are 9-1 in their last 10 games, and they have the league’s best home record with only 2 losses in their house. They are a big 11.5-point betting favorite facing a Wizards’ team that has lost 2 straight.

To say the Wizards have been up and down in the last couple of months would be an understatement.

[dfads params=’groups=63727&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

From late January to early March they lost 9 of their 13 games before getting back on track and winning 5 straight. However, they have now dropped 2 in a row including losing badly in their last games to the Kings, who are well under .500.

Earlier this season in the Nation’s Capital the Warriors beat the Wizards 114-107.

The Warriors are 7-1 in their last 8 games facing the Wizards, but their lone loss was last season at home.

The Wizards have lost 11 of their last 13 road games.

The Wizards have a legit defense ranking 7th in the league in opponents’ points allowed (97.5 ppg), but they have allowed an average of 111 ppg in this last 2 games. They will have to shore up their D tonight facing the Warriors, who are the highest scoring team in the league.

Even without 2nd leading scorer Klay Thompson, who is out again with an ankle injury, and Stephen Curry not lighting up the scoreboard the Warriors have kept winning. The Golden State bench has been playing great and the G duo of Leandro Barbosa and Andre Iguodala have scored in double figures in each of the last 3 games.

[dfads params=’groups=63741&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

For the Wizards to pull off the big upset tonight they have to play good defense and the perimeter players of John Wall, Bradley Beal, and Paul Pierce, who are the team’s leading scorers, have to play well and shoot a high FG%.
