Our Washington Wizards vs Houston Rockets Prediction
While the Wizards have shown some signs of life in the last few weeks, it’s difficult to get too excited about a side that has won only six games all season. Additionally, they could have several players out for this match, including Brogdon, Poole and Coulibaly.
The Rockets continue to reel off results despite many expecting them to cool off, and while this is a hefty line on the road, we feel the visitors could get the job done against a short-handed opponent. Our Washington Wizards vs Houston Rockets prediction is Houston Rockets -9.5.
