Even if Bradley Beal doesn't play, I still like the Wizards as a home 'dog in this spot.

Golden State is 4-17 on the road this season, showing no signs of ending its road troubles. It's a rest day for Klay Thompson, so he won't be available.

The situation sets up well for Washington. The Wizards have been idle for two days since losing, 112-108, at home to the Knicks. Washington has a winning home mark.

The Warriors are playing their third game in four days and second in two days having lost, 132-118, to the Bulls in Chicago yesterday. This is an early MLK Day start time so the fatigue factor is increased for Golden State. The Warriors' concentration level could be off, too, because they've been invited to the White House on Tuesday to celebrate their 2022 championship.

The Wizards usually play the Warriors tough at home having covered in five of their past six times they've hosted Golden State.
