The Washington Wizards’ 119–110 win versus the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday night saw Anthony Gill start at the four due to the team’s ever-growing injury list. Cleveland started hot, and it took just five minutes for their five starters to each log a basket. But riding a seven-game winning streak, the Wizards matched the visitors in scoring. It was the Bradley Beal (33 points) and Daniel Gafford (12 points, six rebounds, four blocks) show through the first 12 — the two combined for 20 of Washington’s 27 points in the first quarter, but the home side was down five at the break.
Wizards vs. Cavaliers final score: Washington gets eighth consecutive win, 119-110
