Washington are 4-15-1 ATS in their last 20 games.

Washington are 2-11-1 ATS in their last 14 games at home.

Prediction

The Wizards have struggled offensively scoring 103 ppg in their last 10 games and the Spurs rank #9 offense in the league and have scored 116.2 ppg in their last 10 games, the problem with the Spurs is the defense but with the Wizards struggling to score I think the best option here is to take the Spurs.
