Portland Trail Blazers vs Washington Wizards Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 01/27/26

The Portland Trail Blazers make the second stop on a 3-game road trip on the Eastern Seaboard with a meeting in the nation’s capital with the Washington Wizards. The Blazers suffered a 102-94 loss to the Boston Celtics on Monday night, playing without leading scorer Deni Avdija due to a back ailment. He is a question mark for Tuesday’s game, and it’s a tough turnaround with no rest. The Blazers were able to cover as +8.5 underdogs in Boston. While the Blazers are 5-1 against the spread in the past 6 games, they are 3-4 ATS in 7 outings this season when playing on no rest.

The Wizards have dropped 9 in a row since Jan. 6, with their most recent victory coming against the visiting Orlando Magic. While Washington hasn’t been able to pick up many wins, it is doing a decent job in the covers department — going 3-1 ATS in the past 4 games. There is plenty of risk taking the Wizards at home, as they have dropped the past 5 games at home against the Blazers while also going 0-5 ATS. However, I’m banking on the Blazers running on fumes in this back-to-back situation — and we can go a little more aggressively on Washington if Avdija is unable to go.

Trail Blazers vs Wizards prediction: Washington +7 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable to +6.
