76ers top Jazz and move to 10-0 at home

James Ennis III hit a 3 and dropped for three push-ups, and Tobias Harris scored 26 points to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 103-94 win over the Utah Jazz on Monday night.

The Sixers improved to 10-0 at home.

Ennis, Philly’s super sub and a former Miami Heat player, had the crowd going wild in the first half when he was fouled on a 3 and did three quick pushups to stretch the lead to 26 points. Ennis missed the free throw, but it hardly mattered at home.

The Sixers flexed their offensive muscle and have started to play more like a team expected to contend for an Eastern Conference title than one that slogged through a 2-5 stretch in mid-November.

The glaring blemish for the 76ers was another off-night for All-Star center Joel Embiid. Four games after Embiid went scoreless (0 for 11) against Toronto, he scored 16 points on just 5-of-13 shooting. He looked gassed as the Jazz closed the deficit to 10 points with 4 minutes left. Utah’s Joel Engles made it 99-92 on a 3-pointer with 57 seconds left, but the Sixers held on.

Rudy Gobert led the Jazz with 27 points.
