The coaching change hasn't helped Washington much as Scott Brooks struggles to get his team to play to its ability. The Wizards are also coming off another loss, this time 114-111 at home to Miami. The Wizards defense broke down again and allowed the Heat to shoot 50.6 percent overall and 48.1 percent from three-point range. John Wall and Bradley Beal did their part by scoring 34 points apiece but Marcin Gortat was the only other player in double figures with 10 points. The Wizards are 4-8 ATS this season while Phoenix is 8-6 ATS. The Suns enjoyed a big win at Indiana 116-96, but then had a back-to-back and lost at Philadelphia the following night. Phoenix has covered the spread four of the last five meetings and eight of the last 10 in Washington. The Wizards are 1-4 ATS their last five games and showing little if any improvement. Grab the points and play the Suns.
