10* NBA Game of the Week
(NBA) Indiana vs. Washington,
Point Spread: -4.50 | -105.00 Washington (Home)
Result: Win
If the Indiana Pacers were healthy, they would be challenging for a top 4 or 5 seed in the Eastern Conference. A starting lineup of Malcolm Brogdon, Caris Levert, TJ Warren, Myles Turner, and Sabonis is formidable. Unfortunately, those 5 have not been on the floor together all season, this they have struggled at times. The Pacers are coming off a 57 pt win over the lowly OKC Thunder.
They face a Wizards team that is as healthy as it has been all season and that is clicking on all cylinders. Look for Beal and Westbrook to have huge games here at home.
They almost beat a very good Dallas team on the road, despite an off shooting night. Coming back home, in a game where they can pull closer to the team directly ahead of them in the standings, I don't see the Wizards losing. They are simply the better team right now as they'll won 10 of 12 games and the 2 losses were by 1 win and the other in OT. Take the Wizards to WIN & cover.
