*Wizards look to slow James, Cavaliers again*
---------------------------------------------
Washington (27-25) at Cleveland (32-22) 7:30 pm EST
CLEVELAND (Ticker) -- A pair of teams in the thick of the Eastern
Conference playoff race will meet for the second time in two
weeks when the Cleveland Cavaliers host the Washington Wizards
on Friday.
The Wizards held All-Star LeBron James to just 18 points in a
101-89 home triumph on February 10. It was a key victory for
Washington, which trails Cleveland by four games for the fourth
seed in the East, and homecourt advantage in the first round of
the playoffs.
All-Star Gilbert Arenas scored 34 points as the Wizards returned
from the break by posting a 90-78 home victory over Minnesota
on Tuesday.
Caron Butler collected 19 points and 13 rebounds, his fourth
double-double in his last six games for Washington, which has
won six of its last eight games.
The Cavaliers had their three-game winning streak halted
Wednesday as they dropped a 116-107 contest at Philadelphia.
James scored 33 points but could not prevent Cleveland from
stumbling in its second game back from the All-Star break.
While the Wizards were quiet at Thursday's trade deadline, the
Cavaliers made a couple of moves. They acquired Ronald Murray
from Seattle and Lee Nailon from 76ers. It is unknown whether
either player will play in Friday's contest.
