The Bottom Line

In their last meeting, the Washington Wizards appreared to be in full control of the game early on. However, Steph Curry got hot and caught fire and literally took the game over. He carried the team on his shoulder and led the comeback that defeated the Wizards in heartbreaking fashion. The Wizards won’t have to worry about him as he is listed out in this game due to his leg injury. The Wizards should win this game. They need to focus on Klay Thompson as the Warriors will look to design some plays just for him early on in this game. They can’t allow him to get going in this game. If they lock on to him, the Wizards will win easily.
