Who is in and who's out for Sunday's face-off between Wizards and Spurs?
The Washington Wizards will be up against the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday, December 21, at Capital One Arena in Washington. It will be the re-match of their recent NBA encounter on Thursday, December 18, which saw the Spurs recording a blowout victory over their counterparts in a low-effort manner. Dylan Harper, Devin Vassell, Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama dropped double-digit scores for their side to guide the Spurs to their 19th victory of the season.
The Spurs will head into the game on the back of a two-game winning streak. In their most-recent game, they recorded an easy victory over the Atlanta Hawks. On the other hand, the Wizards are coming off an eight-point win over the Memphis Grizzlies. The game saw Kyshawn George and CJ McCollum drop 56-points, while Alex Sarr and Bub Carrington came up with combined 32 points to guide the Wizards to their fifth win of the season.
Both teams are coming off victories, and one could anticipate a tight clash unfolding in Washington on Sunday. However, given the form and momentum of both teams, we expect the Spurs to record a lopsided win to extend their winning momentum.
As both teams aim to add more victories to their tally, let’s get into the injury reports and expected starting lineups for both teams.
