Bulls have played well without Zach LaVine but this is second straight night and one of several recent games (Cavaliers home loss also comes to mind) where they desperately need more offense and shotmaking. Vucevic’s absence also hurting them offensively. – 10:49 PM

Snappy ball movement. Sweltering 3-point shooting. Top-to-bottom contributions. Jarrett Allen being a monster. It all added up to #Cavs best offensive night of the year.

Tough game for the Wizards as they fall to the Cavs 140-101. They will get a chance to hit back, as they stay in Cleveland to play again on Friday night. – 9:10 PM

Max Strus’ 5-for-5 shooting from the 3-point line in first half, the most triples made without a miss in any half of his career. He has a game-high 21 points. – 8:11 PM

The Wizards had a solid 1st half offensively against the Cavs with Kyle Kuzma (14 points) leading the way. But they will need to shore up the 3PT line (Cavs went 13-for-21) as they aim to come back from down 12 points on @MonSportsNet. – 8:00 PM

Heading into tonight, injuries had limited Landry Shamet and Delon Wright to just 64 minutes playing together across seven games. I think that lineup pairing has significant promise. In that small sample size, the Wizards outscored opponents by 16.9 points per 100 possessions. – 7:43 PM

Clock weirdness that may only interest me from Tuesday’s Cleveland-Toronto game — Cavs get rebound at 24 and change but shot clock still turns off … so refs don’t have the “15” on board to trigger 8-second call, and nobody was counting it out. pic.twitter.com/n8yvcvRs0U – 1:37 PM
