Resurgent Wizards Await Suns
The Phoenix Suns snapped a three-game losing streak as they took care of the Memphis Grizzlies on the road last night.
The Washington Wizards, on the other hand, have won three of their last four games as they hope to get back into the playoff mix.
Let’s check the latest NBA odds, stats, injury report and NBA lines for Wizards vs Suns. We’ve plenty of NBA betting odds for you to consider.
Suns Looking to Shake Off Rough Stretch
The Phoenix Suns’ NBA Finals odds are improving, as they are only two seasons removed from getting all the way to the Finals.
Devin Booker is in the mix for the MVP award, as his odds in the BetUs sportsbook indicate.
However, Booker has been sidelined with a groin injury, which has prevented the Suns from getting into any sort of consistent rhythm.
However, they came away with a huge win against Memphis, a fellow contender out West.
Duane Washington paced the Suns with 26 points and eight assists off the bench, largely filling the production left behind by Booker.
The Suns have some decent pieces to go around Booker, but if they want to truly compete for a championship, they’re going to need Booker to be healthy. His presence allows the team to gel at its fullest capabilities.
Wizards Hope to Prove Legitimacy
The Wizards have turned things around for now and a lot of their recent success has to do with Bradley Beal returning to the lineup.
At his best, Beal is one of the best scorers in the league with his ability to get a shot off at all three levels.
Kristaps Porzingis is also settling into his role with the Wizards, providing a rock-solid scoring presence in the post and the floor-spacing big they’ve needed next to Beal over these last few years.
Porzingis finished with 24 points and 10 rebounds in the Wizards’ win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night.
If you are going to place a wager on the Wizards to make the playoffs, this may not be the right time to bet online, as they still have to prove that they can win on a sustainable level.
