Preview: 76ers begin three-game road trip tonight against the Cleveland Cavaliers
The Philadelphia 76ers will kick off a three-game road trip tonight in Cleveland against the Cavaliers.
Joel Embiid and company are four-point road dogs tonight against Donovan Mitchell and the Cavs, but without question, I’m backing the 76ers, who are 7-3 over their past 10 games and winners of three straight.

Joel Embiid returned to the lineup on Monday night and absolutely destroyed the Atlanta Hawks, putting up 30 points, eight rebounds, and seven assists as the Sixers overcame a 16-point deficit for the win.Â
Even without James Harden and Tyrese Maxey, the Sixers have relied heavily on Shake Milton and Tobias Harris, as well as key bench contributions from Paul Reed and Georges Niang to go 5-2 over the past week.
Obviously, when talking about the 76ers, the entire team and really the city of Philadelphia revolves around Joel Embiid. Tonight, Embiid will be matched up against Evan Mobley, who over three previous games, he was destroyed. Embiid has averaged 32.3 points, 13.3 rebounds, and 6.7 assists against Evan Mobley, which includes a triple-double performance.Â
As for the Cavaliers, they were one of the hottest teams to begin the 2022-23 season but have gone just 5-5 over their last 10 games. They are a VERY tough team at home, defending their court to the tune of an 8-1 record.
Still, with Jarrett Allen out of the lineup, the Cavs suffer. They are just 1-3 without their starting center this season and 10-20 without him over the past two seasons.

Joel Embiid has been UNSTOPPABLE this season and I don’t think that changes tonight. Look for Embiid to dominate Mobley, while Tobias Harris and Shake Milton continue to play fantastic basketball.
Give me the 76ers +4.Â
