New Orleans at Washington

Washington had to play three games in three days due to a makeup game and now is playing its fourth game in six days after getting blown out at Miami 114-94 on Saturday. Bradley Beal scored 19 points in the loss as the Wizards shot just 40.4 percent and missed 10 of 21 free throw attempts and were only 3-of-22 from beyond the arc. New Orleans beat the Wizards in the last meeting 107-105 on Dec. 11 when Tyreke Evans poured in 27 points and Anthony Davis added 18 points and 11 rebounds. The Pelicans have won four of their last five games, including 111-106 at Detroit when Davis exploded for 59 points on 24-of-34 shooting and grabbed 20 rebounds. This could be a problem for the Wizards' defense, which allows an opponent field goal percentage of .469 and allowed Hassan Whiteside of the Heat to go wild scoring 25 points with 22 rebounds. New Orleans has covered five of the last six meetings in Washington and is finally showing some momentum. Play the Pelicans.
