The Washington Wizards have shown that they cannot win without either John Wall or Bradley Beal. The Washington Wizards coming into this game are now 0-4 in the bubble but managed to cover against the Philadelphia. The Wizards have essentially been eliminated from playoff contention, however, that does not mean that they'll give up as players are fighting for their job security. Without Bradley Beal and with there poor defense they will continue to struggle as they are unfortunately the worst team in the 22 team restart. The New Orleans Pelicans lost there most recent game against the Kings where Bogdan Bogdanovic scored a career high 35 points Brandon Ingram should prove too much to handle for the Wizards and even if Zion continues to be managed his impact will still be felt. The Washington Wizards closest loss in the bubble in terms of the score was against the Brooklyn Nets in which they lost by 8 points, the Pelicans are the superior team to the Nets and Wizards, this should be a relatively easy victory.
