Cavs vs. 76ers: How to watch, odds, and injury report

The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to establish some positive momentum after Sunday’s disappointing loss to the Boston Celtics. Even though they’ll be playing on the second night of a back-to-back, going up against this version of the Philadelphia 76ers should help them.

The Sixers will be without their four best players: Joel Embiid (oblique), Tyrese Maxey (finger), Paul George (suspension), and VJ Edgecombe (back). Meanwhile, the Cavs are expected to have their starting lineup from yesterday available, even though Jarrett Allen (knee) still won’t be available.
