What you need to know about the Cavaliers
Cleveland will be looking to snap out of a three-game losing streak on Saturday night. The Cavaliers are heading home for a three-game homestand, but they are dealing with a depleted roster. All-Star point guard Darius Garland (back) and Caris LeVert (foot) are both out with injuries.
Backup point guard Rajon Rondo is also going to be out for two weeks with a sprained right toe. Despite the three-game losing skid, Cleveland has still won 13 of its last 19 games. The Cavaliers have covered the spread in eight of their last 11 games against a Southwest Division opponent.
What you need to know about the Wizards
Washington is coming off one of the most thrilling games of the season, losing to San Antonio in double overtime on Friday night. Kyle Kuzma scored a game-high 36 points for the Wizards, who have alternated between wins and losses over their last seven games. Forward Kristaps Porzingis (knee) has not played since being acquired from Dallas earlier this month.
Porzingis is listed as doubtful to play on Saturday night for Washington, which is already missing star guard Bradley Beal (wrist). Kuzma is the team’s active leader, averaging 16.7 points and 8.8 rebounds per game. The Wizards have covered the spread in four of their last six games against Cleveland.
