Yeah, this game is more than vital for the Wizards, who are 2.5 games back of the Pistons for the last playoff spot in the East with 4 games remaining.
The Pistons only have 3 games in the regular season and they would love to pass the Pacers, who they trail by ? game, so they can avoid playing King James and the Cavs in the first round of the playoffs.
In their last games the Wizards beat the Brooklyn Nets 121-103 and the Pistons beat the Orlando Magic 108-104.
Washington Wizards
The Wizards have won 2 of their last 3 games, but if they take the loss in this game they can kiss their playoff hopes goodbye.

Bradley Beal and John Wall, both guards, are the top scorers for the Wizards and they will be key in this game. Wall did not go in the win over the Nets in his last game and while he has struggled with his shot as of late his presence in this game will be important.
One key match up in this game is inside with Washington’s Marcin Gortat facing Detroit C Andre Drummond, who leads the NBA in rebounds per game. Gortat scored 16 points and grabbed 12 boards in the win over the Nets, who were without C Brook Lopez.
The Wizards 18-21 this season on the road and they have lost 3 of their last 4 games away from the Nation’s Capital.
Detroit Pistons

The Pistons are a balanced team with leading scorer G Reggie Jackson and Tobias Harris and Drummond, who lead the frontcourt and are each averaging over 16 ppg.
If the Pistons can keep the perimeter players from having big games they should win in their house and wrap up a post-season berth.
