Cleveland Cavaliers vs Washington Wizards prediction

The Cleveland Cavaliers are as hot as any team in the league, and that includes covers in 7 of their last 10 games. The Cavs have won each of the last 6 games against the Wizards, and they covered 5 of those games. The Cavs beat the Wizards by 24 points last month. The Washington Wizards aren’t winning or covering numbers despite being big underdogs nightly, and they’re still down one of their better players in Marvin Bagley. It’s a thick line, especially for a road team, but I have no choice but to lay the chalk with the Cavaliers. The Wizards are god awful, both SU and ATS.
