NBA on Wednesday brings a very interesting matchup between the Houston Rockets and the Washington Wizards in a game that promises a very fast-paced basketball game in which every bucket counts on either side of the court.
Houston is coming off a very bad eight-game losing streak that has buried them in the Southwest Division and is looking desperately to make a comeback in their next schedule against the Wizards at all costs.
Houston Rockets
Houston we got a problem, is what has been said plenty of times in their most recent history for the Rockets that still have not found a way to find a win with their very talented but still young roster that lacks a lot of rhythm and character in the league to find success in their game.
In their last game against the Philadelphia 76ers, the coaching staff has decided to sit out a couple of their players in Kevin Porter and Christian Wood due to behavior issues, which appears to be taking their on-court struggles back to the locker rooms and is now affecting the rest of the team.
It is no secret now that the Rockets franchise is going through a very tough moment this season but still has high hopes of seeing their young guns grow in the NBA to find success as they progress.
Washington Wizards
Coming off a very important win against the Charlotte Hornets last game, the Wizards are now ready to face a very downed opponent in Houston and are looking forward to making the most out of the difficult times that the Rockets are having to convert another win in their record.
Washington is led by their franchise player Bradley Beal who is very used to being sensational for his team and is averaging 24 points and 6.4 assists per game to take the advantage every time he steps on the court and make a difference in their game.
Another very important player that has most recently shown his great value to the Wizards is Kyle Kuzma who is now averaging 8.3 rebounds and 14.5 points per game, not only continuing to develop his game but leaving a mark on his time playing with Washington this season.
NBA Betting Trends:
- The total has gone over in nine out of Houston’s last ten games.
- Washington has a mark of 4-1 in their last five games when playing against the spread.
- The total has gone over in five out of Washington’s last six games.

Due to the issues that have now not only been shown on the court but now are translating out of the court as well for the Rockets, everything indicates that Houston is going through a very rough patch and some disciplinary issues that will continue to show up on their results.
Washington on the other hand, while they have not been very consistent during this season they continue to show as a very competitive team that regardless of their opponent will march forward and get the job done no matter what.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Wizards -6.5
The Wizards will take the easy win from a very banged-up Rockets that more than disputing basketball games in the NBA, appear to be going through a long learning curve full of crashes and changes that will continue to repeat as long as it is needed.
