The Washington Wizards continue to struggle with their performances on the road. With three consecutive losses, the Wizards have fallen to a 29-37 record as they notched their fourth loss in their last five games.

The game against the Trail Blazers saw an extremely one-sided showing. As Portland took an early lead and managed to maintain it as the Wizards failed to get their offense going.

Although the Wizards saw impressive performances from Kyle Kuzma and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Washington were poor on the defensive side of things as Josh Hart recorded a game-high 44 points to seal the win for the Trail Blazers.

Kyle Kuzma since Christmas:

21.6 PPG
9.7 RPG
48.3 FG%
36.0 3P%
15 Double-Doubles

With a lot of negative momentum heading into their next game, the Wizards may struggle to change things up as their 12-20 away record looms over them.

The Warriors have enjoyed a change in pace in their recent outings. After a rather disappointing series of losses in late-February and early-March, the Warriors have gone on a three-game winning streak to see them return to a competitive position.

Coming off a definitive win against the Milwaukee Bucks, Golden State saw a solid performance from Klay Thompson, who picked up the scoring responsibility in Steph Curry's stead - who had only eight points for the night.

Klay Thompson tonight:

💧 38 points (season high)
💧 8 3PM (season high)
💧 Warriors Win

The Warriors have looked like a much better team in their recent games and this trend may see another upwards rise as Draymond Green joins the lineup against Washington on Monday.

Warriors still have James Wiseman listed as out vs Wizards tomorrow. Just finished up his second G-League game. Gary Payton II and Andre Iguodala still out. Draymond Green and Otto Porter Jr. are back.

Making his timely return from injury, Golden State will look forward to having a key player return to the lineup.

The Golden State Warriors are heavily favored to win this game against the Washington Wizards. This could primarily be attributed to their current form as they log three consecutive wins and also the return of Draymond Green to the lineup.

The Wizards haven't been in the best shape either. While also considering their poor record on the road, the Warriors have a great chance to welcome a key player back to the lineup with a win.

Wizards vs Warriors Match Predictions

The Golden State Warriors should emerge as the winners in this matchup against the Washington Wizards.

Considering the fact that the Warriors have been in great form recently, the addition of Draymond Green back into the rotation only does wonders for the side.

Although Curry hasn't been the most active scorer, the Warriors have also displayed enough depth where different players in the rotation can take up the scoring load and contribute to the side.

While the Wizards have seen some impressive outings from Kyle Kuzma and Kristaps Porzingis may return to the rotation on Monday, it won't be enough to stop the Warriors on their home turf.
