Kyrie Irving makes season debut for Cavaliers in 108-86 win over 76ers

Kyrie Irving played 17 minutes in his season debut and scored 12 points, and LeBron James had 23 as the Cleveland Cavaliers rolled to a 108-86 victory Sunday over the visiting Philadelphia 76ers, who lost their 10th straight and fell to 1-28.

Irving was on the floor for the first time since breaking his left kneecap in Game 1 of the NBA Finals against Golden State. The Cavaliers did OK without him, going 17-7 to start the season, but they’re a more complete team with the All-Star point guard healthy.

Matthew Dellavedova made four three-pointers and added 20 points for the Cavs, who improved to 12-1 at home and are eyeing a Christmas Day game against the Warriors. James didn’t play in the fourth quarter, logging a season-low 26 minutes.

The 76ers are 0-17 in road games and are on their second double-digit losing streak this season.
