The Philadelphia 76ers (1 - 18) defeated the Los Angeles Lakers (2 - 15) 103 - 91 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on Tuesday. Despite trailing by eight points at halftime, Philadelphia took advantage of a stagnant Lakers offense to pull away for a comfortable win, outscoring Los Angeles 53 - 33 in the second half. This was the first victory of the season for the 76ers after they had tied the 2009 - 10 New Jersey Nets for the worst start in NBA history, while the Lakers have now dropped seven straight contests themselves. The 76ers saw six scorers reach double digits, with Robert Covington’s 23 points leading the way. Nerlens Noel had 14 points and nine rebounds in just 26 minutes off the bench, and Jerami Grant was an efficient 6 - for - 7 from the field while tallying 14 points, seven rebounds, four assists, and four blocks. Rookie Jahlil Okafor’s 12 points were well below his season average of 18, but he’ll be happy to trade away personal accolades for his first taste of victory in the NBA. For the Lakers, not much went right besides Julius Randle recording a second straight double - double with 12 points and 11 rebounds. Kobe Bryant led the team in scoring with 20 points, but hit just seven of the 26 shots he attempted, and finished a game - worst - 21 in plus/minus. Jordan Clarkson’s 19 points gave him at least that many for the fourth time in five games, but he managed just two assists as his team was out - assisted 28 - 15 in the game. Both teams will be right back in action Wednesday, as the Lakers travel to Washington while the 76ers face the Knicks in New York.
