Turner Leads Pacers To Victory Over 76ers

Last updated on Monday, March 27, 2017

(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - The Pacers ended their two-game skid with a 107-94 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers thanks to seven players scoring in double-figures.

Paul George scored a game-high 21 points while Myles Turner racked up a 17 point and tied a career-high with 16 rebounds.

"I think Myles was upset about how we played last game and he made an effort to go after rebounds tonight," coach Nate McMillan said.

The win put the Pacers in a three-way tie for fifth in the Eastern Conference as Atlanta and Milwaukee lost earlier in the day.

Jeff Teague added 16 points while Al Jefferson added 14 and Monta Ellis, Aaron Brooks and CJ Miles all scored 10. Jefferson and Rodney Stuckey left the game with ankle injuries but x-rays were said to be negative for both.

The Pacers get back in action Tuesday night when they host the Minnesota Timberwolves.
