Trail Blazers vs. Wizards Odds & Betting Predictions - April 5, 2024

#Tailing @PropBomb

The Trailblazers have their eyes set on the future, are resting their vets, and #3 overall pick Scoot Henderson is finally getting his opportunity to lead the offense. Over his L3 games, Billups has handed him the keys with a massive 96.7 touches (#4 in the NBA) on a 37.7 MPG average. Scoot is a quick learner, getting better at committing fewer fouls and scoring 22 of the team’s 89 points in the last game vs. CHA. Tonight’s matchup is excellent to keep the ball rolling in the nation’s capital. VS. CHA, Scoot played a bottom-5 PACED team and scored 7 of his 22 PTS in the 2nd half. WAS plays at a top-5 PACE, and POR’s implied team total is 110.5 points (21 PTS higher than POR scored last game). Henderson is at his best when he can get into transition & drive into the paint. Last game, he surpassed Banton with 19.0 drives. Past opposing drivers have all found success, including Jalen Green (40 PTS), Fox (25 PTS on 30% FG), DDR (27 PTS), Cam Thomas (38 PTS), Schroder (21 PTS), & Cade (33 PTS). Look for Scoot to follow suit, hoping to finish his rookie season on a high note. #PlayerProps
