Result:
WIN

Houston had its three-game winning streak snapped with a 110-105 loss at Brooklyn last night. The Rockets couldn't stop the hot-shooting Nets, who shot 55.6 percent from the field. Marcus Thornton scored 32 points and Corey Brewer added 22 for the Rockets while James Harden was held to only 10 points on two-of-nine shooting. Houston had won and covered its previous three games and appears to have turned it around after Kevin McHale's firing.  Washington is coming off a 114-103 win at Miami on Monday as John Wall led with 26 points and Bradley Beal added 21 points and had a key steal late in the game that broke a 103-all tie. The Wizards won the game despite allowing the Heat to shoot a .594 field goal percentage. Marcin Gortat is expected to play tonight after missing the last three games visiting his mother overseas, but Washington won Monday's game mostly with its bench and a smaller lineup. The Rockets are 8-2 ATS their last 10 meetings in Washington and the Wizards are 3-8 ATS after an ATS win and just 2-5 ATS following a straight-up win. The road team has also covered the spread the last four meetings, so play the points on the Rockets.
