Washougal Motocross betting, predictions, odds, picks, lines: Justin Barcia worth a consideration to podium
Hunter's (+432) odds also became slightly less attractive this week after winning the first race and finishing second in Moto 2. He had a little more than 40 points shaved off his line of +475 entering Spring Creek, but it bears noting that his three-race average of +452 remains significantly better than the three rounds previous, when he averaged +850. The Lawrence brothers were in a class of their own in Minnesota, but the data pool is too shallow to predict that Hunter will consistently challenge Jett. That raises questions about Hunter's minus odds for a podium, which opened at -285.
If a bettor places an outright win bet on Hunter, they may as well cover it with another wager on the head-to-head matchup between the brothers. Jett is heavily favored at -650 over Hunter's +392.
Chase Sexton (+580) was best-in-class in the Spring Creek National, although he ran a distant third in both motos. Consistency on the track ping-ponged his odds this week. He opened at +590 for his Pro Motocross return at RedBud, sagged to +763 for Spring Creek, and rebounded at Washougal. For reference, Sexton opened the season at +499.
Now that his chances of winning the championship have all but evaporated, a lot of wind has gone out of Eli Tomac's (+1705) sails. Even before his mechanical failure two rounds ago, which practically eliminated him from contention, his odds slipped from a three-round average of +263 to +833 for RedBud. He fell further for Spring Creek to +1569, and that trend continued into Washougal's 17/1 handicap. Pride is a powerful motivation, however, and that could be worth some couch cushion money.
Tomac's podium odds of +161 do not provide much juice for the squeeze, but there may be another wager worth considering. Tomac matches up against Sexton in a head-to-head battle this week, with Sexton favored at -229 to Tomac's +167.
The podium odds provide some of the most interesting considerations this week. Justin Cooper (+3949, overall win) ranks fifth on the handicap chart this week with a line of +265 to finish among the top three. He gets the traders' nod over RJ Hampshire (+12887) because of season-long consistency, but Hampshire has come on strong in recent rounds with fourth-place results overall in the past two weeks. Given his long outright win odds of 129/1, intrepid gamblers might even want to slip some discretionary money his way.
Justin Barcia (+12887) scored a surprise top-five at Spring Creek. With Cooper Webb out for knee surgery and Aaron Plessinger out for illness this week, Barcia's +2073 for a podium is worth a second look.

Boston Celtics jersey history No. 28 - RJ Hunter (2015-19)
The Boston Celtics have had players suiting up in a total of 68 different jersey numbers (and have three others not part of any numerical series) since their founding at the dawn of the Basketball Association of America (BAA -- the league that would become today's NBA), worn by well over 500 players in the course of Celtics history. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Celtics Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. With 25 of those jerseys now retired to honor some of the greatest Celtics to wear those jerseys, there is a lot of history to cover. And for today's article, we will continue with the 11th of 14 people to wear the No. 28, Boston guard alum RJ Hunter. After ending his college career at Georgia State, Hunter was picked up with the 28th overall selection of the 2015 NBA Draft by the Celtics. The Oxford, Ohio native played just 36 games before he was cut by the team to end his first stint with Boston, separated by another with the Chicago Bulls and one with Houston Rockets before signing with Boston for the final game of his NBA career as a player. During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Hunter wore only jersey No. 28 and put up 3.1 points and 1.1 rebounds per game. All stats and data courtesy of Basketball Reference.

Aaron Plessinger to miss final three rounds of 2025 Pro Motocross
Aaron Plessinger will skip the final three rounds of the Pro Motocross season as he continues to heal from an unspecified illness. He originally planned to skip only the Washougal National and then use the two-week hiatus to recover his health. "Ongoing health issues had affected the 29-year-old prior to missing Round 8 at Washougal, however, despite initial plans to return for Ironman Raceway this Saturday, Plessinger has been recommended by his doctors to take additional time off the bike in order to focus on his recovery," Red Bull KTM said in a press release. Plessinger's strong start to the season, with two podiums and another pair of top-five finishes in the first four rounds. He finished seventh at Southwick in Round 5 before the health issues developed. He was outside the top 10 at RedBud and then started Moto 1at Spring Creek before pulling off track with fatigue, Plessinger was unable to line up for the second moto there. "Unfortunately, getting to the bottom of my health issues is taking longer than I had hoped," Plessinger said. "My Cortisol levels are still really low and not back to where I was hoping they would be by now, so under my doctor's advice, I'm going to sit out the remainder of the MX series. It's frustrating given I was riding the best I have ridden in my career this season, but going from leading motos to DNFs is not healthy for me and I don't think it's what the fans or my team deserve either. "I'm getting older and it's just time for me to do some deep-diving into my health and get to the bottom of it. I'm not the first guy to go through it, so I have received a lot of positive feedback and support from my peers, and I will figure this out – it's just something that is taking a bit longer than I had hoped. I'm already missing seeing the fans and my team every weekend, so you better believe I will be back real soon." Indications are that he will return for the SuperMotocross World Championship (SMX) playoffs, but that was not part of the announcement. Plessinger said he was "shooting for Charlotte, so I'm kind of excited about that — I don't know, whatever," Round 1 of the playoffs, in an Instagram post. In that Instagram post, Plessinger ended some internet speculation, saying he has not tested positive for Epstein-Barr Syndrome, had not over-trained, or submitted to an extreme and unhealthy diet. His symptoms began to display as he rode through what he believed to be a simple sinus infection. Plessinger did not state that he knew there was a direct correlation between the infection and his current symptoms. Plessinger's 250 divisional teammates Tom Vialle and Julien Beaumer also skipped Washougal, but they will return to action this week.
