Washington @ Denver picks

Justin Champagnie has converted an impressive 34.2% of his attempts from beyond the arc this year, significantly higher than his 22.7 rate last year. The 4th-quickest pace-of-play offense in the NBA this year has been the Washington Wizards. The Wizards rank as the 6th-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games away from their home court (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore lead to additional opportunities for scoring and assists). Justin Champagnie has converted 100.0% of his free throws over the last 5 games, 30.2% higher than he's sunk over the course of the year.

Jordan Poole has averaged 3.1 personal fouls per game away from home this year, ranking in the 97th percentile -- among the league's most foul-prone. As it relates to shooting, the Washington Wizards's poor 106.7 points per game as the visting team settles in as the 3rd-fewest in the NBA this year. This year when they are the visiting squad, opposing starting PGs have shot 20.5% on three-pointers (2nd-worst in the league) against the Nuggets, creating a hard matchup. The Wizards are expected to see a decline in possessions today from being pitted against the 10th-most lethargic pace home offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Nuggets). Jordan Poole stands to suffer a reduction in production across the board on account of playing away from home in this matchup.
