Portland has more road wins than banged-up Washington has at home. The Blazers have had an uneven season, but there is plenty of talent with the backcourt of Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum, plus Carmelo Anthony up front. Portland is top 10 in the NBA in scoring (112 pg) and three-point shooting (36.5%). The Blazers are 41-27 ATS in non-conference games, plus 7-3-1 ATS following a loss of 10+ points. Washington is on a 3-10 SU, 5-8 spread run, missing parts of five key rotation players. Washington is last in the NBA in points surrendered (121 per game) and field goal shooting defense (49.1%). Washington is 13-31 ATS against teams with a winning percentage between 25-40% and the road team has won five straight in this series, including a 119-109 Portland rout when they were last here. Play Portland for a Max Play.
