The Cleveland Cavaliers ( 48 - 27 ) survived a scare from the Philadelphia 76ers ( 18 - 56 ) as they edged them out by a score of 87 - 86 at the Quicken Loans Arena . The 76ers gave the Cavaliers everything they could handle Sunday , but fell just short of pulling off the upset as Nerlens Noel missed the potential go - ahead jumper with two seconds remaining . The Cavaliers narrowly avoided their second straight loss despite being held to just 39 % shooting from the field . The 76ers missed too many free throws down the stretch , finishing just 8 - for - 15 from the stripe in a one point loss . Philadelphia could have taken the season series from Cleveland had it won Sunday 's contest . Philadelphia put forth a valiant effort Sunday against the East 's second seed on Sunday , but poor free throw shooting prevented the upset . Robert Covington bounced back from a disappointing two point outing Friday to score 19 against the Cavaliers . Furkan Aldemir got the start at center and responded with 11 points and 10 rebounds over 27 minutes . The 76ers will finish out their back - to - back set on Monday when they host the Lakers . Cleveland had its full complement of players on the floor to start the game , but it did n't end that way . Iman Shumpert left the game with an ankle injury and Kevin Love had an early exit due to a lower back injury . LeBron James had 20 points , but it came on 8 - of - 24 shooting from the floor and 3 - of - 6 shooting from the line . The Cavaliers will be idle Monday before hosting the Heat on Tuesday .
