Philadelphia 76ers win for first time since March

It goes down as a new low for the Lakers, who are 2-15 and just one game into an eight-game trip that spans the better part of the next two weeks.

“This feels good to finally put it together and play a full 48 (minutes)”, Covington said. It feels great to get it…

Brandon Knight scored 26 points and Eric Bledsoe had 17 for the Suns, who had a long dry spell from the field in the fourth quarter after leading by nine earlier in the period. I’ve seen the stat that since ’07 either he has or I’ve been in the Finals, but we’ve never matched up.

The Orlando Magic posted their fourth consecutive win thanks to a 96-93 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The 17-time All-Star, 15-time member of the All-NBA Team, and 12-time member of the All-Defensive team has announced that he would retire after this season.

The reason it could be a questionable long-term move: The Sixers are in line to receive LA’s first round draft pick next June – but only if it falls outside the top three selections. He was traded to the Lakers weeks later for Vlade Divac. While the game is ongoing, he also felt players’ admiration of him. Malone, who died in September at 60, was the NBA Finals MVP in 1983 when he led the Sixers to the title. Former Sixers Julius Erving and Clint Richardson reminisced about their former teammate during a halftime ceremony.

Philadelphia has a straight number in front of their record.

The notoriously fickle and ardently anti-Kobe crowd stood and made themselves heard Tuesday night. “Kobe! Kobe!” as he was introduced during pre-game introductions. There was also a pre-game video tribute.

The Wolves had chances to take the lead on their next three possessions, but Zach LaVine missed a long 3-point jumper and Wiggins drive to the rim was blocked.

As for Bryant’s reliance on 3-pointers, Scott said, “That was too many”. “I wasn’t expecting that kind of reaction”. “Deeply appreciative beyond belief… really, really special”. Since being with the Lakers he have helped them win National Basketball Association titles in 2000, 2002, 2009, and 2010.

Russell was probably aware that Bryant was going to hold on to the ball, go one-on-one and chuck up the shot. His haul also featured four three-pointers. Thirteen of his points came in the first quarter.

“We finally got the monkey off our backs”, Isaiah Canaan said. “We didn’t want this streak continuing”.

Covington had 11 to pace the Sixers before the break. John Wall is averaging 16.1 points and 7.6 assists while Bradley Beal is averaging 19.6 points and 4.3 rebounds.

Lou Williams and Nick Young returned to their old stomping grounds with the Lakers.
