Result:
LOSS

Cleveland continues to be one of the surprise teams in the NBA with its young roster producing a 20-14 record. Washington has faded following a fast start, and now is .500 at 17-17. The Cavaliers want to redeem themselves after blowing a 23-point lead while losing 108-104 at New Orleans on Tuesday, but they still have won seven of their past nine games and they beat the Wizards 116-101 last time the teams met on Dec. 3. The Wizards are 2-6 straight up their last eight games, including a 119-112 loss at Miami two nights ago, even while shooting nearly 50 percent. The previous game the Wizards shot 38.8 percent and lost by 21 points to Philadelphia. Cleveland is 25-9 ATS this season, but go with the Cavaliers on the moneyline.
