Warriors vs. Wizards Prediction

The Warriors are currently No.8 in the Western Conference standings. This will be the second in a back-to-back set of games following last nights Bulls loss. Even the return of Stephen Curry has done little to course-correct the ailing Oakland outfit. The injury bugged has rocked the team badly this season. The potential absence of Klay Thompson is an especially alarming prospect for tonight.

The Wizards, meanwhile, haven't made the most of the home-court advantage this season, going 11-9. Offensive MVP Bradley Beal's absence has been sorely felt lately. His presumed absence from tonight doesn't bode well for the otherwise healthy Wizards.

Overall, even with their current setbacks, the Warriors are the superior all-round team. Offensively, even if Thompson's out, the team should just about be able to get the job done tonight.

Prediction: Warriors -3 (-110)
