The Cleveland Cavaliers will be at home against the Washington Wizards for their next NBA regular season assignment. They come to this game sitting eighth in the Eastern Conference 11.5 games ahead of 14th placed Wizards. The Cavaliers have lost their last two matches and will be keen to get back on the winning column. Playing against the struggling Wizards and a team they have dominated recently should have J.B Bickerstaff’s men confident of a win. The Cavs were defeated 124-121 last time out by the Raptors and are now three games above .500. They have been decimated by injuries this season and will have four players out here. Evan Mobley and Darius Garland are the main absentees and are both averaging at least 16 points a game.
The Washington Wizards are the second-worst team in the East and third-worst in the entire NBA. They have compiled a 6-26 record and 21 of their defeats have come against fellow East teams. Wes Unseld’s men were defeated 130-126 last time out by the Hawks at home. It was the fourth time in the last five games that they have allowed at least 127 points to their opponents. Washington possesses the worst defensive rating and is allowing 126.2 points a night. This is a significant drop from last season’s 114.4. The visitors have an almost clean bill of health coming into this match and only Danilo Gallinari is on the injury report.
