The Cavaliers’ current streak of 13 consecutive wins over the Wizards dates back to February 2022, when Cleveland trailed 118-110 in their all-time head-to-head.

Tre Johnson was notably left off the Wizards' injury report ahead of their matchup after the long break.

The Wizards must thread the needle better between accomplishing their draft capital goal and also using competitive losses to help their young talent develop in the meantime. Getting a veteran point guard by the Feb. 5 NBA Trade Deadline would help accomplish that, as their offense would improve with better facilitation.
