Mikal Bridges comes into this matchup having scored at least 32 points in both of the last two games. While he had a modest five rebounds in both of those matchups, he is averaging 6.2 rebounds per game for the season. This is a great matchup for him to be productive both in the scoring department and on the glass. The Wizards have played at the second-fastest pace, have the second-worst defensive rating and have given up the most rebounds per game in the league. The last time he faced them, Bridges recorded 27 points and 13 rebounds over 34 minutes.

Nicolas Claxton gets a dream matchup tonight against the worst team in the NBA in the Washington Wizards. The Wizards play at the 2nd fastest pace in the league and are 2nd worst in Defense. Washington has been especially generous to opposing bigs as they surrender the most PPG (27.8) and RPG (17.19) to Centers this season. Claxton has played 29 mins per game over his last six appearances and if he gets that much playing time should pile up plenty of points and rebounds.
