76ers-Cavaliers Preview

(AP) -- While the Cleveland Cavaliers aren't about to rush back aging superstar Shaquille O'Neal from a shoulder injury, LeBron James is not letting a sore wrist slow him down.

Coming off his highest-scoring game of the season, James looks to help the Cavaliers win for the 10th time in 12 contests Saturday night when they host the struggling Philadelphia 76ers.

James banged his left wrist on the basket while dunking late in Wednesday's 108-91 loss to Washington, but the injury didn't seem to bother him much in Friday's 105-95 win at Indiana. The reigning league MVP scored 10 of his season-high 40 points in the final 7:07, and also had nine rebounds and seven assists to help the Cavaliers (9-4) continue their surge after back-to-back losses to open the season.
