It’s been a bad stretch for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Cleveland has lost their last five games, which included a disastrous fourth quarter at the Chicago Bulls on Saturday to conclude the team’s six-game road trip, and Cleveland followed that up with a ridiculously awful second half on MLK Day versus the New York Knicks.
On a positive note, the Cavaliers should be in-line for a “get-right” game on Thursday, as the Washington Wizards come to town.
Washington has the NBA’s worst defensive rating thus far in the 2019-20 season, according to NBA.com, and are not killing it record-wise, either, as they’re just ahead of the Cavs record-wise at 14-29.
