Hawks vs Wizards Pick: Friday, January 29th: The Hawks are coming off a 132-128 overtime loss at home to Brooklyn on Wednesday night on the second half of a home back to back. Trae Young went for 28 points and 14 assists but was just 7/22 from the field. Meanwhile, Clint Capela went for just 9 points and 11 rebounds in 30 minutes but was a game-high +19 when on the floor. Clint Capela (hand) is probable for Friday’s game vs. the Wizards, he played through the hand issue on Wednesday. Cam Reddish came off the bench for the Wizards to score 24 points, Reddish just returned from an Achilles issue, but now his quad is giving him some trouble and is questionable (right quad contusion) for Friday’s game vs. the Wizards.
The Wizards are coming off their 3rd straight loss, 124-106 at New Orleans. They are averaging just 98.3 points over the last three games. Washington was outrebounded 63-46 in their loss to New Orleans. With Thomas Bryant out with a knee injury, Robin Lopez just isn’t getting the job done on the glass, with just 3 rebounds in 23 minutes. Meanwhile, Bradley Beal went for 47 on his own, but he needs some serious help out there. Russell Westbrook was resting and will be back in action tonight. The Wizards are one of the worst teams in the NBA when coming off of a loss, going 3-7 ATS in that situation, failing to cover the spread in the bounce-back spot by an average of -2 points per game.
