The Wizards have opened as 3.5-point favorites on SBG Global Sportsbook’s Live NBA Basketball Odds.

Sacramento Kings (10-22): Sacramento, which is 3-7 in its last 10 games, is coming off a 120-108 road loss to the Miami Heat on Tuesday. The Kings put up a valiant battle but ultimately couldn't contain the highest scoring team in the NBA. Despite the loss, head coach Keith Smart praised his club afterward. "You needed to play a perfect game to win this game against this team and we were pretty close to a perfect game," he said.

Washington Wizards (7-25): Washington, which is 3-7 in its last 10 games, is coming off a 104-88 road loss to the Phoenix Suns on Monday. Head coach Randy Wittman was seething after the game, which saw the Wizards turn the ball over 16 times while registering just 16 assists en route to their third straight defeat. "We became selfish," Wittman said. "We didn't share the ball and tried to do everything one on one ... that's all it was. I'm not going to put up with that."
