    Thunder vs. Wizards line, picks: Advanced computer NBA model releases selections for Tuesday matchup

    SportsLine's projection model generated selections for Tuesday's matchup between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Washington Wizards

    The Oklahoma City Thunder visit the Washington Wizards for a cross-conference game at 7 p.m. ET on Tuesday. Washington is favored by 6.5 points at Caesars Sportsbook, while the Over-Under is set at 211 (see up-to-date odds for every game this week on our NBA odds page). 

    Before making any Thunder vs. Wizards picks, you NEED to check out the NBA predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.

    The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every NBA game 10,000 times and has returned well over $10,000 in profit on its top-rated NBA picks over the past three-plus seasons. The model enters Week 13 of the 2021-22 NBA season on a stunning 52-28 roll on all top-rated NBA picks, returning almost $2,000. Anyone following it has seen HUGE returns.

    The model knows the Thunder take care of the ball well on offense, committing only 13.6 turnovers per game. Oklahoma City should also benefit from a Washington offense that ranks in the bottom five in 3-pointers per game and three-point accuracy. On defense, the Thunder are very good at protecting the rim, allowing 43.8 points per game in the paint, and opponents attempt only 18.4 free throw attempts per game. Oklahoma City allows opponents to shoot 44.3 percent from the field and 51.1 percent on 2-point attempts, both of which are in the top 10 of the NBA.

    The model also knows the Wizards are in a favorable position on both ends. Washington is shooting 46.5 percent from the field and 54.4 percent on two-point attempts, ranking in the top eight in both areas. The Wizards produce 22.0 free-throw attempts and also commit only 13.4 turnovers per game. Washington is also elite at preventing transition on defense, leading the league in fast break points allowed. Oklahoma City is dead-last in offensive rating and shooting efficiency as well, putting Washington in a positive spot to be aggressive.

    Now, it has set its sights on Thunder vs. Wizards. We can tell you the model is leaning under the total, and it also says one side of the spread hits in almost 70 percent of simulations! You ABSOLUTELY need to see it before locking in any NBA picks.
