After the Cleveland Cavaliers were relatively healthy through the first half of the season, the Wine and Gold's injury report is stacking up. The latest injury came to Dean Wade, who banged knees with Tyrese Maxey during Cleveland's loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday night.

Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell led all scorers in this game with 37 points, but it was 76ers forward Paul George who led his team to victory with 30 points, five rebounds and three assists in 36 minutes of action. Appearing in his 29th game of the season, George raised his season scoring average to 17.4 points.

Paul George scored 30 points, Tyrese Maxey had 29 and the short-handed Philadelphia 76ers beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 132-129 on Friday night to end a seven-game losing streak.

With the 28-year-old out of the lineup for an extended period, Max Strus seems poised to reclaim his starting small forward spot from last season, as he has started in each of Cleveland's last five contests. The Cavaliers also have Georges Niang, Sam Merrill, and Jaylon Tyson as additional wing depth during Wade's absence.

Paul George scored 30 points and the host Philadelphia 76ers beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, who lost back-to-back games for the second time all season.
