In order to preserve the legs of the 33-year-old Marcin Gortat, Scott Brooks has been sending Ian Mahinmi out for roughly 20 minutes a game in recent weeks. That's going to have to change as Mahinmi sat out Monday's practice and is considered day-to-day with a sore knee. In all likelihood, he's going to sit at least a game. With no other healthy true center, Gortat could return to the 30-plus minutes he was playing earlier in the year.
If that's how Brooks decides to go with the center rotation, Gortat could be in for a big night. The Nets are fourth-worst against opposing centers, allowing 52.9 FanDuel points with 21.8 points, 15.1 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game, this season. According to Vegas Insider, the Wizards have also been the beneficiary of a 1.5-point boost since the game opened with a 212 over/under. Standing as 3-point favorites with a current over/under of 213.5, Washington's implied total of 108.25 makes the Polish Hammer even more intriguing below $5,000 on Tuesday.
