The Wizards need to wait a bit longer for their dividend of the recent trade with the Hawks as Trae Young's quad injury likely keeps him out until at least the All-Star break. With no Trae and CJ McCollum now in ATL, Washington has been a loser in four straight and not closer than 14 points in any of those games. Defense still remains an issue for Brain Keefe's Wiz, surrendering almost 124 ppg across the recent skid. Meanwhile the Kings are playing their best ball of the year in the current three-game win streak that includes double-digit wins at Golden 1 vs. three playoff-bound teams (Rockets, Lakers, and Knicks) with vet DeMar DeRozan on fire, leading Sacto scoring in five straight games.
