76ERS WIN TO AVOID EQUALING WORST MARK

Carl Landry scored 22 points to lead the host Philadelphia 76ers to a 107-93 victory against the injury-depleted New Orleans Pelicans, ending a 12-game losing streak. The win ensured that the 76ers wouldn’t equal their NBA record for fewest victories in an 82-game season. Philadelphia improved to 10-68 and is one win clear of the 1972-73 76ers, who went 9-73.
