The Washington Wizards will have to play for the second straight night as it travels to Charlotte to take on the Bobcats. These teams met on Monday in DC where the Bobcats pulled out a 92-88 win. Charlotte has had a few days rest since that game while the Wizards fell 105-96 to the Atlanta Hawks last night. These two teams are seemingly going in different directions but I look for talent to prevail for the Wizards as they need the win more and are the better team overall.

Here are my keys to the game:

Revenge for the Wizards- The Wizards fell to the Bobcats on their home court on Monday and will be very motivated to get back on the other side of the result in this game. A five game losing streak will also add more desperation to the Wizards.

Wizards' underdog status- The Wizards are 5-1 SU and ATS when labeled the underdog of four points or less this season.

X-Factor- The matchup at the point guard position. The Wizards guard duo of Bradley Beal and John Wall has struggled against the Bobcats in recent matchups but won't have to deal with Kemba Walker who will be out of the lineup again for the Bobcats. At some point the cream of the crop will rise to the top and spill over. Expect a big game from Wall and Beal.

Selection: This is a play on Washington (10*)
