The Washington Wizards have had some trouble staying in the win column this season, so finding the Cleveland Cavaliers on their schedule is less than ideal. Washington enters this game on a four-game losing streak.
The Cavaliers haven’t had those same issues. Cleveland has won five of its last six games, and is up to 9-0 at Quicken Loans arena. The team’s last game saw the team win in the closing seconds when LeBron James knocked down a hook shot in the lane against the Brooklyn Nets to give the Cavaliers a 90-88 victory.
Washington Wizards:
The Wizards were blown out by the Boston Celtics by a score of 111-78 on Friday, then fell to the Toronto Raptors in crushing fashion when Cory Joseph knocked down a 3-pointer from the corner with his team down one at the buzzer to lift Toronto to an 84-82 victory.
Wizards point guard John Wall has been one of the players to point at when it comes to the team’s struggles. He hit on just 6 of his 25 attempts from the field in the team’s loss on Saturday. The Wizards dropped three of their last four meetings with the Cavaliers last season.
Cleveland Cavaliers:
The Cavaliers saw guard J.R. Smith score in double figures for the seventh consecutive game before he hit on just 3 of his 12 attempts from the field in Saturday’s game against the Nets. In spite of the poor shooting effort, he was able to contribute with four blocks and three steals.
Smith’s long-range shooting has been a struggle of late for a player known for running hot and cold when it comes to his ability to knock down jumpers. Over the last two games, he’s hit on just 1 of 9 attempts from 3-point range after hitting at least three 3-pointers in each of his previous five.
NBA Betting Trends:
The underdog is 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings between these teams.
The road team is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings between these teams.
The Cavaliers are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games following a win.
The Cavaliers are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games overall.
The Wizards are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games played on two days’ rest.
Free NBA Prediction:
It hasn’t been a pretty start to the season for the Wizards, but the team figures to get up for one of the more noteworthy games on their schedule. It’s also reasonable to expect a bounce back performance from Wall after his terrible shooting effort against the Raptors.

Then there’s the matter of the Cavaliers, who come into this one shorthanded. The team’s name carries more weight than the actual substance on the roster at the moment, which is why covering spreads has come so difficult for them.
