Philadelphia has the best record in the East and leads the Atlantic Division after four straight wins. Cleveland is second in the Central. Both teams play Wednesday first (Philadelphia at Detroit, Cleveland at Oklahoma City), so the records above will change before tip-off.
This is an Emirates NBA Cup group-play game. The 76ers won their Cup opener over the Knicks, 98-93, on Oct. 30. This is Cleveland's first Cup game. The teams already met once in the regular season: Philadelphia won 114-106 at home on Oct. 22. They play again on March 1 in Cleveland.
The Cavaliers turn around and host the Knicks on Saturday (8 p.m. ET, NBA TV). The 76ers play at Chicago on Sunday (3:30 p.m. ET).
Also Sunday, Nov. 8: Lakers (6-2, first in the Pacific) at Pistons (6-1, first in the Central), 6 p.m. ET on NBA TV from Little Caesars Arena. It's the first of their two meetings; the second is Jan. 8 in Los Angeles. The Lakers host Portland in a Cup game on Friday night first.
