Tyson's career-high 39, Mobley's game-winner leads Cavs past 76ers

PHILADELPHIA — Jaylon Tyson scored a career-high 39 points, Evan Mobley's dunk with 4.8 seconds left was the winner and the short-handed Cleveland Cavaliers completed a two-game sweep of the 76ers in Philadelphia with a 117-115 victory on Friday. Donovan Mitchell added 13 points, 12 assists and nine rebounds for Cleveland, which rallied from an 11-point deficit in the fourth quarter. The Cavaliers defeated the 76ers 133-107 on Wednesday. Joel Embiid scored 33 points and Tyrese Maxey had 22 points, nine assists and five steals for the 76ers. Cleveland was without Darius Garland (right big toe soreness) and Sam Merrill (right hand sprain), who were both injured Wednesday. Coach Kenny Atkinson said both will be reevaluated when the team returns to Cleveland this weekend. The 76ers looked in control when Paul George hit a jumper with 8:47 remaining for an 11-point lead. But the Cavaliers used a 13-2 run, capped by De'Andre Hunter's 3-pointer with 5:53 left, to tie it at 102. Philadelphia moved ahead by seven points after turnovers by the Cavs on three straight possessions, but Cleveland hung around. Hunter's layup with just over a minute left put the Cavs up a point. After Mobley made one of two free throws with 22.7 seconds remaining, Maxey tied it on a runner with 8.1 seconds left. After a timeout, Tyson set up Mobley near the basket for an easy dunk to put Cleveland in front by two. Maxey's shot from just beyond half court that could have won the game went long. Dominick Barlow was back in the lineup for Philadelphia after leaving Wednesday's game early due to a back contusion. He was questionable entering the contest and finished with two points. Up next The Cavaliers host Oklahoma City on Monday.
