NBA: Orlando 96, Philadelphia 94
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 26 (UPI) --
Rashard Lewis hit a three-pointer with 6 seconds remaining Wednesday that gave Orlando a dramatic 96-94 decision over Philadelphia.
Philadelphia rallied from a 10-point halftime deficit and held a narrow lead for much of the fourth quarter.
Andre Iguodala hit two free throws to give the 76ers a two-point advantage with 14 seconds to go, but Lewis came through with the big shot to bring the Magic their second straight win and keep them atop the Southeast Division by 1 1/2 games over Atlanta.
Dwight Howard led Orlando with 21 points and 14 rebounds. Tony Battie added 20 and Lewis had 19.
Elton Brand scored 21 for the 76ers, who dropped their second straight. Orlando has won in five of its last six trips to Philadelphia.
