PJ Washington is poised for a potentially huge game against the Houston Rockets, who are allowing the most points per game to opposing power forwards.

The Charlotte Hornets and Houston Rockets will meet on Wednesday night, and PJ Washington will be looking to have another strong performance. The Rockets have been struggling lately, with them allowing an average of 28.6 points per game to opposing power forwards. This could be a great opportunity for Washington to exceed his season average of 15.2 points per game.

Washington has been feeling confident lately, calling himself “the best power forward in the league”. He has had plenty of chances to back up his bold statement, and he will have another one against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night. With Washington’s scoring and rebounding abilities, it is likely that he will exceed his season averages and the over/under line for points-rebounds-assists set at 22.5 

Washington has had some tough matchups in the past 10 games. Having to play Brooklyn, Memphis, Toronto, and Boston in 6 of his last 10. All those opponents ranked in the top 10 in defense allowing very few points to opposing PFs. So great opportunity for Washington to bounce back here. 

Washington has been playing well this season and tonight looks like a good bet for him to have a big game. If you’re looking for a smart bet, the over on PJ Washington’s points+rebounds+assists could be a good one.
