Strange time, maybe, to back the Wiz after they gave up 162 points on Thursday vs. the Pacers in their worst-ever franchise loss. But humiliation bounce-back is one of the recurring angles worth following in the NBA. The night before, Washington did manage to beat the Sixers, and first-round 7-footer Alex Sarr has now scored 20+ in consecutive games. This is also a vote against the Nets, who appear dead in the water. Injuries having torn the team asunder, the losing streak now six as the defeats are becoming progressively worse, including back-to-back 30+-point losses to the Raps and Clips. Washington has handled Brooklyn rather easily in two previous meetings in February before the bottom fell out of the Nets' season. Play Wizards.

FanDuel. With the Wizards very clearly looking towards the future, it’s become priority for them to feature number two pick, Alex Sarr. The versatile big man has cleared this line in seven of the last nine games. Despite varying gamescript, his minutes have remained consistent, but his usage has sky rocketed (29%), and he’s lead the Wizards in front court touches by a wide margin. The Nets should be a very plus matchup for Sarr, especially as they’ll be without Nic Clayton today.

Two teams coming off blowout losses will meet today as the Wizards host the Brooklyn Nets. For Washington they are coming off losing by fifty one points to the Indiana Pacers. Yet, two of their sixteen wins on the season came against the Nets, including a recent 107 to 99 victory on February 24th. Take the Wizards to complete the sweep over the Nets.
