Wizards vs Thunder NBA Preview
Washington Wizards
The Wizards will look to bounce back after a brutal loss on Tuesday night against the Sixers.
Washington led by as many as 15 points in the fourth quarter before falling in overtime.
Depending on your number, Wizards +4.5 was an early-season candidate for the worst beat of the year.
Kyshawn George continues to lead the way for Washington, averaging 20.3 points and 9.3 rebounds per game.
Oklahoma City Thunder
OKC nearly let a big lead slip away on Wednesday night, but managed to weather the storm and hold off the Timberwolves.
The win kept the Thunder unbeaten, improving their record to a perfect 5-0.
Reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to set the tone, leading the team with 34.8 points and 5.4 assists per game.
Wizards vs Thunder Prediction, Betting Analysis
Wizards +15.5
We'll take the large number with the road team tonight.
Washington remains one of the worst teams in the NBA, but it has shown the ability to score on the offensive end early in the season.
OKC enters this matchup without its second and third-best players, Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren.
I anticipate a high-scoring affair, with the Wizards' offense doing just enough to stay within 14.5 points.
Kyshawn George Over 6.5 Rebounds
We'll team up with our Action Pro Report for this prop.
The former Miami Hurricane has cashed this line in all four games this season, averaging 9.2 rebounds per contest.
George’s workload supports the over here, as he's logging a team-high 33 minutes per game.
Our Action Pro Report projects him for 8.6 rebounds tonight.
