Wizards use hot start to bury Cavs, 119-95

There’s nothing like a long homestand to cure some early-season woes, and the Wizards took another step towards getting back on track Wednesday night. The Cavaliers came to town on the second night of a back-to-back, and Washington jumped all over the struggling Cleveland squad (2-12), speeding away with a wire-to-wire 119-95 victory. It was the Wizards’ third straight win, improving their record to 5-9.

Just about everyone got in on the fun for Washington on the night, but Otto Porter Jr. (15 points on the night), Bradley Beal (team-high 20), and Markieff Morris (11) got the party started.
