Tonight, in the Sixers last game of their back to back to back, they took on the (20-40) Cleveland Cavaliers. The Sixers defeated the Cavaliers 103-87 and sweep the season series.
The leading scorers for the Cavs tonight were PF Samardo Samuels and G Lester Hudson. Hudson and Samuels both had 15 points while coming off the bench. PG Kyrie Irving was back in the starting lineup for the Cavs as he was out for 10 games due to a sprained right ankle. On the night, Irving had nine points on 4 of 10 shooting.
For the Sixers, Jrue Holiday had a game-high 24 points and 19 of his 24 points came in the third quarter. In this quarter, Holiday was 5 for 5 from the three point line. Finally, Andre Iguodala had another great game as he had a double-double consisting of 19 points and 13 rebounds. This is the kind of game we need to keep on seeing from Holiday and Iguodala for the Sixers to continue to win these last four games.
The Sixers are now 32-30 on the season and will take on the Indiana Pacers at 7:00 pm at Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Saturday night.
