The matchup vs. Washington is a strong one; when the Wizards have the home court advantage, they have given up the 4th-most points per game in the NBA to the opposing team's starting PGs this year (21.8).The 3rd-quickest pace-of-play road team in the league this year has been the Cavaliers.The Cavaliers are expected to get a boost in opportunities in this contest from squaring off against the 4th-most up-tempo pace offense in the league this year (the Wizards).The Cavaliers have been the best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore create additional opportunities for scoring and assists).This year when they are the visiting team, the other team's starting PGs have attempted 4.7 free throws per game (4th-highest in the NBA) vs. the Washington Wizards, easily managing to get to the charity stripe.
