Donovan Mitchell took over on Wednesday night to lead the Cavaliers to victory, scoring a game-high 35 points. Mitchell added nine assists, while Darius Garland added 20 points. Unfortunately for the Cavaliers, he left the game early with an injured foot. More specifically, he is dealing with a toe injury that will keep him out at least until Jan. 19. Joel Embiid led the Sixers with 20 points, and he hit a huge milestone during the game, reaching 13,000 points. He is the seventh player in Philadelphia team history to accomplish that feat. This rematch might be a tough one for Philly, considering that Embiid and Paul George are listed as game-time decisions, as both are dealing with persistent knee injuries.
