The Wizards are one of the main hunters for draft picks. Wes Unseld's team has lost 20 of 23 games and currently sits ahead of Detroit in the East. At the same time, Washington does well in offense, ranking 10th in rating with an average of 115.9 points per game. The Wizards played their last game at home against New Orleans and were usually inactive in their half of the court, eventually conceding more than 140 points - 120-142. This is the second consecutive meeting when Washington let the opponent score under 150. Before that, the capital team failed on the road to Philadelphia - 101-146.
Indiana
The Pacers defend about the same way as Washington; that is, it almost does not work on defense. However, unlike their opponent, they are an actual playoff contender. It's all about high-scoring offense, and Indiana is currently the best-scoring team in the league at 128.4 points per game. The Pacers played their last match away and lost 126-140 to Milwaukee. In that game, Rick Carlisle's team allowed Giannis Antetokounmpo to set the Bucks record with 64 points.
Expert Betting Tips
Both Washington and Indiana need to be more balanced. With a great offense, both teams simply don't defend. So, no matter what total bookies offer for the upcoming game, we should take the TO. The two teams earned over 260 points in their first season meeting. We won't be surprised if they go over 300 now, especially after Indiana's 157-152 win over Atlanta.
