The Cleveland Cavaliers took down the conference-leading Detroit Pistons on Tuesday, thanks in part to 22 points from Jaylon Tyson and how well he defended MVP candidate Cade Cunningham.

The Spurs knew the 76ers would be shorthanded coming into last night’s game in Philadelphia, with Joel Embiid out with an oblique strain and Paul George serving 25-game suspension for violating the league’s drug policy.

The six-year veteran is averaging 24,4 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 6.6 assists per game in Portland, good for the first NBA All-Star nomination of his career.

At the […]
