Washington Wizards (17-63) and Miami Heat (41-39) will clash in the Eastern Conference on Friday night at Capital One Arena. The Wizards have been painful to watch recently, winning only one of their last 10 assignments. Brian Keefe’s men failed to stop their seven-game slide when they lost 108-119 to the Bulls on Thursday night. Earlier in the week, they had lost to the same opponent by 31 points at home. They’ll be glad that the season is coming to a close.
Miami Heat, on the other hand, have already secured their play-in spot, sitting in the tenth spot with a .513 win percentage. However, Erik Spoelstra’s men have struggled for form lately, having lost seven of their last 10 matches. They’ll be eager to stop their two-game losing run and maximize their two remaining games to build a winning momentum ahead of the postseason. Bookmakers favor them to win tonight by -2000.

Our Washington Wizards vs Miami Heat Prediction
Miami is generally a high-scoring team, making them a tempting option on the spread. Their attack ranks second in the NBA this season, averaging 120.4 points per contest. They could run over the Wizards’ shaky defense, which has given up an average of 124.7 points this season. That’s second-last in the NBA standings. However, we expect an end-to-end game because the Heat aren’t doing any better defensively. They’ve conceded an average of 118.5 points this season, which is only good for 22nd in the standings. This defensive weakness, coupled with the Wizard’s home advantage, makes us believe that the hosts will cover the spread.
Our prediction for Washington Wizards vs Miami Heat: Washington Wizards on the +18.5 line.
