Washington has won six of its last seven games and has appeared to have finally turned the corner in Scott Brooks' first year as head coach of the Wizards. Washington has won and covered its last three games, including Wednesday's 104-101 win over Memphis as John Wall had 25 points and 13 assists as the Wizards led the entire game. This follows blowout wins over Philadelphia and Portland, and the Wizards are shooting 47.1 percent from the field for the season and have averaged 111 points their last three games. New York won at Boston 117-106 with Derrick Rose scoring 30 points, but the Knicks still have lost 11 of their last 14 games and they have lost five of their last six home contests. Washington is 5-0 ATS its last five games at New York and 8-2-1 ATS the last 11 meetings overall. The Knicks dearly miss Kristaps Porzingis, who has missed the last four games with an Achilles injury. Play the Wizards.
