Jrue Holiday Leads Sixers Past Clippers

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Jrue Holiday scored 24 points and Andre Iguodala had eight of his 20 points in Philadelphia's dominating third quarter to lead the surging 76ers to a 105-91 victory over the road-weary Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night.

Spencer Hawes had 16 points and 12 rebounds, and Elton Brand contributed 15 points for the Sixers, who have won three straight and seven of nine.

Blake Griffin had 20 points and 18 rebounds, matching his career high, to pace the Clippers (5-21), who have dropped all 11 of their road games this season.

Counting last season, Los Angeles has lost 15 straight on the road and hasn't won away from home since
defeating Houston on March 25 last season.

For Griffin, it was the 13th straight game in which he has recorded a double-double.
