The Cavs were on the way to a blow out loss in Philadelphia tonight until a 4th quarter run got them back in it and within four points of the lead, but in the end MVP candidate Joel Embiid and company were just a little to much as they came away with a 118-112 win.

The loss snaps the Cavs 7 game win streak and the overall record goes to 38-23.

Next game for the Cavs is after the All Star break next Thursday with the Denver Nuggets coming to Cleveland.
