CLEVELAND (AP) — Elton Brand and Lou Williams scored 16 points apiece, and the Philadelphia 76ers moved above .500 for the first time this season with a 95-91 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday.
Philadelphia, which has won a season-high four straight games, placed six players in double figures. The 76ers (30-29) have won six of seven and 13 of 17, but had to hold off a late Cleveland rally that saw the Cavaliers cut a 15-point lead in the second half to two in the final seconds.
Cleveland forward Antawn Jamison left the game in the third quarter with a broken little finger on his left hand. He scored 16 points in 30 minutes. J.J. Hickson had 22 points and 16 rebounds for Cleveland.
Full story appears in Monday’s edition of The Vindicator.

"76ERS DEEP SIX CAVALIERS"
95 TO 91,
CLEVELAND LOST ANOTHER ONE.
COULDN’T TIE IT WITH A THREE,
FANS WENT HOME DEJECTEDLY.
ALL IN ALL, WE PLAYED TOUGH,
STILL LOSING, WHICH IS ROUGH.
HOMESTAND NOW AT 3 & 4,
PLAYING BETTER EVERMORE.
NEXT UP SAN ANTONIO,
DON’T FORGET THE ALAMO.
HOPING CAVS MAKE A STAND,
BEATING SPURS WOULD BE GRAND.
GOD BLESS
