Houston at Washington

Premium Pick

The Washington Wizards have been a mystery this season as we are at the quarter-pole in the NBA regular season and they stand at an ugly 7-12 in the season. They have one of the top backcourts in the NBA with Beal and Wall, but it has been the lack of defense that has defined the early season struggles as the Wizards are allowing 117.2 points per game. Playing defense is not the way to beat the Rockets. Houston is just 9-9 on the season, but 8-4 over their last 12 and have shaken off the offensive woes by averaging 115.4 points per game in their last seven. Houston is Houston again. Make the play on the Rockets.
