Atlanta at Washington

Washington will look for quick payback after losing to the Hawks 122-120 on Wednesday night despite 43 points from Kristaps Porzingis. The Wizards blew a 15-point second-half lead and can't afford to lose many more if they want to stay in the playoff race, at least for a play-in game. Atlanta doesn't figure to shoot 53 percent as it did two nights ago. Washington beat the Hawks 119-116 in the first meeting this season on Feb. 28 and the Wizards are 6-2 ATS the past eight meetings. Atlanta has not covered the number in five of its past six road games and the Hawks are 16-37 ATS their past 53 games following a win. Washington was playing the second of a back-to-back on Wednesday, but now it's playing with a day of rest. Take the Wizards as a Max Play.
