The Sixers roll into D.C. after a tough loss to the Thunder, but they've won three of their last five, including a critical victory over the Clippers. Joel Embiid's return has been a shot in the arm, evidenced by his 29 points and 8 rebounds against Oklahoma City. The Wizards, meanwhile, are just trying to get to the finish line, having dropped their last three games, including a 22-point drubbing by the Heat on Sunday. Tyus Jones and Jordan Poole are decent, but they aren't slowing this Sixers team down.
The key matchup? Embiid against whoever the Wizards throw at him. Philly has too much firepower for a lottery-bound team like Washington. The Sixers win this one comfortably, 128-105.
