Andre Iguodala led the way with 22 points and Elton Brand added 19 and eight rebounds as the Philadelphia 76ers took down the stumbling Utah Jazz, 96-85, on Saturday.
Louis Williams chipped in 20 points off the bench and Spencer Hawes finished with eight points and 11 boards for the 76ers, who had dropped their previous two games.
A tough road trip continues to get worse for the Jazz, who have now lost four in a row - three to sub-.500 teams in Washington, New Jersey and Philadelphia. They finish the five-game trip at the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday.
The Sixers outscored Utah in every quarter, ending the first with an 8-2 spurt to go up 26-22 and never trailing again. They pushed the lead to as much as 43-30 in the second and led by as much as 14 points in the fourth quarter.
Deron Williams finished with 20 points and 14 assists for Utah before being ejected with 22 seconds left in the game for drawing a second technical foul.
