Prediction
The worst news for Washington is an ankle injury to one of the club's leaders, Kyle Kuzma. His participation in the game is a big question. But in this regular season he is gaining an average of 21.3 points, attacking the basket from behind the arc with a percentage of 33.2. Thus, the other leader of the Wizards, Kristaps Porzingis, will have a double responsibility and burden. Without leaders, it will be very difficult for the capital team to succeed in the home arena. Our prediction is for Cleveland to win with a (-3.5) handicap for 1.95. In the last ten meetings, the basketball players of "Washington" have won six. The Wizards averaged 119.4 points per game during this stretch, allowing their opponents to score 114.9.

Everything goes to the fact that this time the basketball players will be able to please the fans with a productive game. Our prediction is for the over 220.5 points for 1.97.
