Cleveland Cavaliers vs Washington Wizards prediction
The Washington Wizards are going nowhere fast during this massive losing streak, and they’ve covered just 4 of their last 10 games despite being massive underdogs from night to night. The Cleveland Cavaliers are coming off a subpar week, but they’ve shown us far and away more signs of life over the last month, and they did beat the Wizards by 8 points earlier this month. The Wizards are doing noting for me right now, and I can’t find the confidence to get behind them. Give me the Cavaliers in a bounce back blowout victory on the road.
