Kyle Kuzma and the Washington Wizards will wrap-up their four-game West Coast road trip tonight against Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors.
The Wizards (29-37) are still in the hunt for one of the spots in the play-in tourney as they are three games behind the Charlotte Hornets for 10th in the East. Washington has gone through a series of ups and downs in Wes Unseld Jr.’s first year, but they have some pieces to be competitive going forward. The Warriors (46-22) are currently in the battle for the No. 2 seed in the West with the surging Memphis Grizzlies. Golden State went through a rough patch, but is starting to hit their stride with the playoffs on the horizon.
The Warriors are 12.5-point favorites according to DraftKings Sportsbook, with the total set at 225.5.
