The NBA regular season features a marquee matchup on Thursday night, October 22, as the Philadelphia 76ers host the Cleveland Cavaliers at Xfinity Mobile Arena, tipping off at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN. It is LeBron James's home debut for Philadelphia, against the Cavaliers, the franchise he played for over 11 seasons and led to the 2016 championship.
