The Philadelphia 76ers defeated the visiting Miami Heat, 117 - 109, at Wells Fargo Center on Saturday evening.

The Sixers tallied 27 assists and only gave up 10 turnovers, while forcing 20 out of the Heat, to help gain the edge. The Sixers (20 - 34) hit 30 - of - 38 from the free throw line and shot 45 percent from the field. Seven players scored in double digits for Philadelphia, including all five starters. Nerlens Noel, Robert Covington and Dario Saric each finished with a team - high 19 points, while Ersan Ilyasova and Gerald Henderson added 14 points each.

James Johnson followed up with 26 points on 8 - of - 15 shooting, in 36 minutes off the bench, while Tyler Johnson chipped in 17 off the bench.
