What to watch for
The Wizards have looked happier and even played as a better unit in their first three games since the trade deadline. The problem is that they have still gone 1-2 and they’re still out of the play-in game picture, including another loss to the Indiana Pacers just a few hours ago.
The Nets have lost eight of their last 10 games but have won each of their last two — and their roster will be at anything but full strength. With Kyrie Irving out because of NYC’s ongoing indoor event coronavirus vaccine mandate, the Wizards will have a chance to get one last win before the All-Star Break, and the Nets are slumping as it is. Let’s see if Washington can get that win.
