NBA Basketball Betting – San Antonio at Washington
Our Sportsbooks: WHO: San Antonio Spurs (30-16 SU, 22-24 ATS) at Washington Wizards (24-23 SU, 27-19-1 ATS)
WHERE: Verizon Center in Washington DC
WHEN: Wednesday, February 6 at 7 PM ET
BetUS NBA betting odds: SAN ANTONIO -6.5, Total 184
In the HEAD-to-HEAD NBA basketball betting trends:
* SA has covered six of the last nine meetings
* SA has won 13 of the last 16 meetings SU
* Six of the last nine meetings have gone UNDER the total
* WASH is 4-2-1 ATS in the last seven meetings as the home team
* SA has won nine of the last 13 meetings SU as the visitor
* SA has made more three-pointers in six of the last seven meetings
The Spurs have committed only 12.3 turnovers a game, which is the fifth least in the NBA. They are tied for 7th in three-pointers made per game (7.7). Also:
* SA has covered five of its last 17 games
* SA has played ten of its last 11 games UNDER the total
* SA has covered three of its last 11 road games
* SA has won four of its last six road games SU
* SA has played six of its last seven road games UNDER the total
The Wizards have made 79.5% of their free throw attempts, which is third in the league. Washington has a 15-10 home record, both straight-up and against the spread. Also:
* WASH is 1-5 SU & ATS in its last six games
* WASH has played four of its last six games OVER the total
* WASH has won and covered five of its last seven home games
* WASH has played 13 of its last 16 home games UNDER the total
There is some concern in the Wizards’ camp about the status of Caron Butler, who has been dealing with a hip flexor. He came back to action, then left the game on Tuesday. That means Antawn Jamison (21.2 ppg, 10.5 rpg) might just have to shoulder some more of the scoring load. He is not uncomfortable doing that.
San Antonio has a pressing problem with the absence of Tony Parker, out with a heel injury. Parker scored 29 points the last time these two teams met, when San Antonio scored a 15-point win at home in November. Recently-acquired Damon Stoudamire, the former rookie of the year, has been called upon to shoulder some responsibility early on in his Spurs career. He scored 11 points in his first start against Indiana last night, a 116-89 Spurs win.
Oddly, Washington, which is 8-0 ATS laying more than six points at the Verizon Center, is just 3-6 against the number as a home dog. But the veteran-laden Spurs have just had an awful time in the second end of back-to-back games, covering just one of nine in that situation.
We aren’t crazy about the way San Antonio had been playing previous to that blowout in Indianapolis, so we’ll grab the points with the Wiz, the 6.5-point underdog in the BetUS NBA betting odds.
