Cleveland Cavaliers vs Philadelphia 76ers prediction

The Philadelphia 76ers should have the advantage at home with the rest advantage, but they’re on the struggle bus with all of their injuries, and I doubt playing two games in as many days helps things. The Cleveland Cavaliers have been one of the best teams over the last month or so, and they’re 17-8 SU on the road this season. I’ll side with the more trustworthy team in the Cavs.
