All time the 76ers have the advantage of winning 113 of 219 matches versus the Cavaliers. Last season the teams played three times with the Cavaliers winning two of the three contests.
Philadelphia 76ers
Losers of three games in a row the 76ers were in desperate need of something positive happening and got that jolt with the big rout of the Hornets on Saturday.
Joel Embiid continued his MVP campaign and recorded his 42nd double-double of the season with 29 points and 14 rebounds plus six assists.
Another key in this match was the emergence of Tobias Harris who hasn’t looked comfortable since Harden joined the team. Against the Hornets, Harris scored 23 points and was hot from deep connecting on five 3-pointers.
Harden also collected a double-double with 12 points and 13 assists. Tyrese Maxey (19), Matisse Thybulle (12), Georges Niang (10), and Furkan Korkmaz (10) were the other double-figure contributors.
Jaden Springer (groin) was upgraded to questionable for Sunday.
Cleveland Cavaliers
There has been plenty of movement on the Eastern Conference ladder but not by the Cavaliers.
Since they fell into the play-in tournament they’ve been chained to that seventh seed and while the trio of teams under them hasn’t closed the gap the Cavs sure seem destined to host the seven-eight play-in game.
They got a much-needed win in New York with Tom Thibodeau electing to rest most of his core and go with the youngsters.
It was the second time in recent games that the Cavs benefited from a team resting stars and core players. Consequently, those two games are the Cavs lone wins in the last seven games.
Darius Garland is having to carry the load while Allen and Mobley are out and has done his best in that endeavor. He offered a 24 point, 13 assist double-double and got assistance from Moses Brown who also collected a double-double (16 points, 13 rebounds).
Isaac Okoro (16), Lauri Markkanen (10), and Cedi Osman (10) were the other double-figure contributors.
Rajon Rondo (toe) and Dean Wade (knee) are questionable for Sunday. Evan Mobley (ankle), and Jarrett Allen (finger) are out indefinitely while Collin Sexton (knee) is out for the season.

Free Philadelphia 76ers vs. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Prediction
The Eastern Conference has been an ever-shifting jumble of 10 teams broken into three categories. While both teams spent time in that top bracket the 76ers are close to falling into the middle group and the Cavs have dropped into the play-in tier.
Given the players not available for Cleveland this should theoretically be an easy victory for the 76ers.
