The Wizards improved to 3-0 in preseason action with a 102-94 win over an extremely shorthanded Cavaliers squad on Sunday afternoon.
Cleveland gave several players the day off, including LeBron James, Kevin Love, Dwyane Wade, Derrick Rose, and Jae Crowder. Jason Smith was the only Wizard who got the full night off for rest, but all of Washington’s healthy starters were taken out of the game after one stint in the first quarter and never returned.
During the short time the Wizards’ starters were in, they were able to build an early lead.
