Why the Wizards can cover

The Wizards took a 106-90 bruising from the Miami Heat on Monday where they shot just 36.9% from the floor as a team. Veteran wing Khris Middleton, who was acquired from the Bucks in a deadline deal for Kyle Kuzma, did manage to have an efficient night in limited action. He went 6-for-9 from the floor and led the team with 16 points despite playing just under 23 minutes.

Despite failing to cover as 8.5-point underdogs against the Heat, Washington has still managed to cover the spread in nine of its last 13 games. The Wizards are also 8-3 against the spread in their last 11 games played on a Wednesday night. See which team to pick here.

Why the Jazz can cover

Meanwhile, Utah is coming off a blowout loss of its own on Monday, falling 134-106 to the Detroit Pistons. Kyle Filipowski had 25 points and eight rebounds off the bench, but that wasn’t enough for the Jazz to overcome committing a staggering 28 turnovers in the defeat.

However, the Jazz had covered the spread in four of their previous five games before Monday’s loss, and they’re 6-3 against the number dating back to an upset win over the Lakers on Feb. 12. Utah won 123-108 as 7.5-point underdogs in Washington, D.C. last season. See which team to pick here.
