Who won Cleveland Cavaliers vs Washington Wizards?

Cleveland Cavaliers beat Washington Wizards 148-115 at Capital One Arena on November 7, 2025.

The Cleveland Cavaliers secured a decisive victory over the Washington Wizards with a final score of 148 to 115 at Capital One Arena. This match showcased the Cavaliers' strong form, extending their winning streak to two games and improving their record to 7-3, while the Wizards fell to 1-9, marking their sixth consecutive loss. The Cavaliers have averaged 115.7 points in their last ten games, while allowing 114.6, demonstrating their offensive capabilities.

In contrast, the Wizards have struggled significantly, averaging only 110.3 points while allowing 126.2 points per game over their last ten outings. Their home record stands at 0-3, and they have not won a game in their last five attempts, averaging just 109.0 points during this stretch. The Wizards' recent results include a series of losses, with their last five games seeing them defeated by the Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, Orlando Magic, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Philadelphia 76ers.

Historically, the Cavaliers have performed well against the Wizards, leading the head-to-head series 1-0 this season and maintaining a 4-0 record in their last four meetings. The previous encounters in the current season included a 134-124 victory for the Cavaliers on February 8, 2025, and a 115-105 win on December 14, 2024. The Wizards have yet to secure a win against the Cavaliers this season, highlighting their ongoing struggles.

In terms of injuries, the Wizards faced notable absences, with Jamir Watkins ruled out due to a knee injury. Additionally, Alex Sarr, Anthony Davis, and Trae Young were all listed as day-to-day, dealing with foot, finger, and quadriceps injuries, respectively. The uncertainty surrounding these players could have contributed to the Wizards' lack of depth and performance issues on the court.

The Cavaliers, on the other hand, entered the game with a relatively healthy roster, which likely contributed to their dominant performance. The market reflected this confidence, with the Cavaliers favored to win, showcasing their form and the Wizards' struggles. The odds were attributed to the betting provider, indicating a clear expectation of a Cavaliers victory.

Conditions during the game were standard for an indoor basketball matchup, with no adverse weather factors affecting play. The Wizards' home court advantage did not translate into performance, as they struggled to keep pace with the Cavaliers throughout the game.

Fans watching the game saw a variety of scoring plays, particularly in the fourth quarter, where the Cavaliers extended their lead significantly. Key moments included free throws by AJ Johnson and Nae'Qwan Tomlin, as well as a series of baskets from Thomas Bryant. The Wizards managed to score a few points late in the game, including a three-point jumper from Anthony Gill, but it was too little, too late.

Overall, this game highlighted the contrasting trajectories of the two teams: the Cavaliers are building momentum, while the Wizards continue to seek answers to their ongoing struggles.
