The Washington Wizards play host to the Houston Rockets at Capital One Arena in the NBA on Sunday. The Rockets are 9-1 in their last 10 games against this opponent, which has us leaning heavily toward an away win here as our match prediction.
The Washington Wizards have been ice cold lately, 2-8 in their last 10 games and now on a six-match losing streak after a double-overtime 144-140 loss to the Pistons on Thursday.
On the positive, the Wizards produced one of their best offensive performances of the season against the Pistons. However, they have allowed the most points per game across the last three in the NBA (126.7).
Washington are 2-3 at home this season but have not beaten this opponent since January 2023. Justin Champagnie and Tristan Vukcevic are out, and Alex Sarr is a doubt for the home side.
Meanwhile, the Houston Rockets have made an impressive start to the season, winning 10 of their first 13 games, including each of their last three after beating the Jazz 125-118 on Friday.
Kevin Durant had a poor shooting night, going 5-for-14 from the field, but Alperen Sengun more than made up for it, scoring 43 points on 17-of-24 shooting, along with 12 rebounds and five assists.
The Houston are fifth in offensive efficiency and eighth on the defensive end this season. VanVleet, Steven Adams and Clint Capela are ruled out for the visitors.
