After picking up their 13th win of the season against the Wizards on Friday, the 76ers traveled to Indiana to play their 4th and final game of the year against the Pacers. For the second straight game, Nerlens Noel came up big and recorded a double-double. But this time it wasn't enough as poor shooting night sunk the Sixers. Final Score: 94-74.
Noel finished with 10 points (2-8 FG, 6-6 FT) and 12 rebounds while rejecting 3 shots. Robert Covington added 12 points and Jason notched 10 in the scoring column.
The Pacers would pull away in the second quarter and lead by 15 at halftime. Brett Brown's squad would cut the deficit a little in the 3rd but Indiana sealed the game when holding Philly to only 10 points in the final period.
The 76ers shot an awful 35% from the floor and 65% from the foul line. Both starting guard, Isaiah Canaan and Jason Richardson, went 1-5 from the charity stripe. The Sixers threw up 24 shots from beyond the three point line, but only knocked down 5. The Pacers did not shoot much better (41% FG and 17% from 3PT) but turned the ball over less (16-12).
Hibbert had a dominant game on the glass, securing 15 rebounds while scoring 14 points and recording 5 blocks. George Hill led Indiana with 17 points and grabbed 9 boards.
The Sixers only had 10 assists, Ish Smith had 5 of those off the bench.
The 76ers (13-46) will play the Raptors in Philly on Monday.
