Pregame notes
The Washington Wizards play against the Indiana Pacers in what could be a possible regular season series sweep. Russell Westbrook has dominated against the Pacers and hopefully will do so on Saturday night.
Wizards are half a game behind which means if they win they’ll move up to the ninth spot in the standings. If the season were to end and the Wizards won they’d host a play-in tournament game instead of being the visitor. They’re even a game and a half behind the Charlotte Hornets for the eighth spot which would be even better based on how the play-in tournament works.
