Brandon Ingram is a super smooth athlete that always finds ways to get open for his silky shot. It's a great sign for New Orleans when he is knocking down mid range shots, like he normally does, his FG% over the last couple of games, is tough to argue against. New Orleans has some high caliber players on their team - their raw skill should fix their defensive situation in the long term.


New Orleans have been sneakily flying under the radar and bumping teams off one by one - their gritty play speaks for itself. With wins over The C's, Miami, and Utah this season, Washington can be in some trouble vs them. The rebounding game of Washington is not great, and New Orleans knows how to hit the glass better by now and does not allow too many second chance opportunities.


New Orleans wins this one by double digits
