Bradley Beal and Kyle Kuzma remain out for Friday's must-win versus the Spurs. That means Deni Avdija should start and continue to play 30-plus minutes. In the last two games, the versatile 6-9 forward has played 34 and 32 minutes and responded with an average of 29 combined points, rebounds and assists. Now he gets a friendlier matchup against the tanking Spurs. In his only previous game against the Spurs this season, Avdija came off the bench to put up 25 points, nine rebounds and one assist in 33 minutes. With a similar workload expected Friday, go Over 26.5.
When I signed on this morning, I fully expected to play over a Kristaps Porzingis prop because Bradley Beal and Kyle Kuzma are out again, but this number is really high so I have to go under. Zinger averages 23.0 ppg. The Spurs are listing essentially every player, Coach Gregg Popovich's shoe-shine guy ("If I was gonna break your *****, I'd say, 'Go get your shine box'" -- name the movie) and owner Peter Holt's dog Sparky as iffy tonight, so this might get out of hand quickly and the Wiz get Porzingis out of there like the Bucks did the other night with the Greek Freak when we (luckily) cashed.
