On May 15, Washington and Cleveland will face each other in an NBA regular season match and we made a prediction for this clash. What to expect from the game? You can find out down below.

Command Analysis

Washington Wizards

Capital team hasn't clinched a playoff berth yet, but they are trying their best to fulfill that task. Wizards' performance dropped recently, but there's a reason for it - Bradley Beal got injured.

Washington lost in two consecutive games and that is not good for their playoff chances. Team went down in a game against Atlanta, despite being very close to victory. Team is now fully on Russell Westbrook shoulders, because he is now a leader on the court.

Scott Brooks' side knows that results should be improved, because Chicago is catching up. Overall, Wizards are in a desperate need of victory in this game.

Cleveland Cavaliers

Cavs are one of three bottom teams of the Eastern Conference and that is not a surprising result. They had way too many injuries, played bad on defense and on the offense as well, which led to their current result.

Cleveland managed to secure a sensational victory in the last game, Boston was beaten (102:94). J. B. Bickerstaff's side was really up for this game, Kevin Love and Collin Sexton scored 57 points combined.

Cavaliers' only objective now is to play this season out, there are only two matches left. Of course there is much work to be done in the summer break, because there is space for the progress.
