The Washington Wizards will go head-to-head with the Portland Trail Blazers at Moda Center on Saturday. The Wizards picked a great time to put together a three-game winning streak as they are facing a red-hot Blazers team which has won a season-high six straight victories.
Bradley Beal and Damian Lillard could engage in a shootout that will likely determine the outcome of this match. The two players are among the most prolific scorers in the league. They will be sharing the court together once again after the Blazers walked away with a 132-121 victory at Washington on Feb. 2.
