The Cleveland Cavaliers are entering their toughest month of the NBA season with 16 games, eight on the road and eight at home. Tonight, they face off against the Washington Wizards, and they’ll be a little shorthanded as they’re going to rest star power forward Kevin Love.

Love will miss just his second game of the season after playing 58 of the 59 games, so the rest will be much needed. There’s no update as to who will replace Love and his 15.9 point, 10 rebound, and 2.5 assist averages from their lineup.
The Cavs play tomorrow at home against the Boston Celtics as well as Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies, so the Cavs are likely preparing for that back-to-back tilt.
