Washington Wizards Form
Washington head to Boston in miserable form, having lost four straight games and 10 of the last 12.
In fact, the Wizards have managed just four victories since Christmas and that has left them with a 9-41 record.
They went on a couple of six-game losing skids in January, but they did look set to finish the month on a positive note when they won 118-104 in Detroit and 118-113 at San Antonio.
Washington failed to keep that run going, losing 125-109 when they returned home to face the LA Clippers on January 31.
The Wizards then lost their first three games of February, losing 110-102 to Miami, 140-112 to Phoenix and 114-106 to Cleveland.
Boston Celtics Form
Boston come into this game in solid form, having now won 10 of their last 13 games to reach 39-12.
The Celtics rebounded from a loss in Milwaukee by sandwiching a 105-96 win in Toronto with home wins against Houston, 145-113, and San Antonio, 117-98.
They then bounced back from a 102-100 defeat to Denver by heading out on the road to beat Houston 116-107, Dallas 119-110 and Miami 14-110.
Boston failed to make it four-in-a-row as they lost 115-96 at home to the LA Clippers, but they again issued an immediate response to a loss by beating New Orleans 118-112 and Indiana 129-124.
The Celtics then suffered a 114-105 defeat at the hands of the Los Angeles Lakers, only to hit back with a 131-91 blowout of Memphis and a 125-117 success against Atlanta.
Verdict
Boston should win this one, but they have had issues covering the spread recently so we are taking Washington and the points.
